Years Served: 1960-1963…Some of the best days of my life. The Med cruse, The storms, and the Cuban missile thing
Years Served: 1960-1964…She was a GREAT ship. I spent some of the best years of my life and met some of the greatest people in the world aboard the USS WALDRON DD-699. I remember when we were involved in the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Years Served: 1948-1952…I’m writing in for my grandfather; Donald L. Schelter who passed away a few years ago. He was a Machinst’s Mate Third Class in 1951 and Fireman in 1949. He was on duty on the USS Waldron DD 699 & was discharged in Feb 1952. Does anyone remember him? Have some information, photo’s, stories you would be willing to share? Please contact me at: dmaran79@yahoo.com Thank you! Dana (Schelter) Coates
Years Served: April 67 – May 70…Don’t have too much time today to say much, first time I have seen this.
Was on on it a year came off the Little Rock a flag ship. Being on the Waldron was like a different Navy from a flag ship laid back and happy crew I couldn’t believe it. Small ship less people everybody knew everybody I loved it.
