My one and only ship. Was a great experience

Hey Ralph- what a crew-seems like I spent more time in the galley and on deck than in the radio shack.

Years Served: 55-57…I served on the Chandler from early 1956 to about August 1957. Made one cruse over seas . We were the first ships into Brisbane Australia since the II world war. Have been to one ships reunion when it was in Laughlin , Nev. I have been in contact with 2 guys from the ship other then that. From what I see, this could really be a great site to communicate on. Cheers , from Iowa

Years Served: 71 to 75…One of the best times I’ve spent in the Navy. Any ship mates out there drop me a line.
