Years Served: Reported aboard in December of 1965 as an Rd3…When I reported aboard the ship was homeported in Mayport, Fla. but was in the yards in Charleston, N.C. On checking in I was informed that the homeport was being changed to Newport, R.I. On leaving the yards, we went to our new homeport via Guantanamo. I remember serving with Tubman, Loulich,Lt.John Hagerty, Ron Jewell and some that escape my memory. We played Volleyball with Capt. Zenni’s team in Fall River. Took a cruise to the med and left for Rd B school shortly after our return. If any of my old shipmates would like to contact me my e-mail is wldwoodman@aol.com.
Years Served: 1956 to 1959…I was a 17 year old Kid from New York. I was put in the After Fire Room. Moale made a man out of me.

Alt . . . we made the Goodwill Tour after WWII . . . stopping everywhere from Alaska to Australia . I was discharged in 1948 and spent 55 years in Fresno and Sacramento California . . . we traveled for 5 years . . . stopped in Florida and worked for the mouse (Disney) for 8 years and will finish out life here in Tennessee. I turned 80 this past July and still very healthy . . .
