Welcome to the USS Eugene A Greene DD-711 Guestbook Forum

Hi. My dad was on the Greene from 1954-1956. He worked on the evaps and made MM3. I followed in dad’s footsteps and joined the navy. He passed away in November. We had been estranged for many years after he married the second time after mom passed. I am hoping that someone here knew him and would be willing to scan me some pictures that might have my dad or even mom in them. I would love to hear any sea stories you might have that I could include with my family tree that I am working on.

Hello John Fair – I was an MR 67-71
Never did know Duck’s real first name

Looking for my biological dad who may have served late 1940s to late 1950s. Last name may have been Johnson and he may
Have been a steward or mess cook. I am of mixed race so I do not know what his race was. I think most stewards and mess cooks were of the black race.
Thanks,
