Years Served: 1965-1969 Radioman Second Class…I had 3 1/2 good years aboard the Bole. 2 Westpac cruises. We were on our way to Australia for R&R when the USS Pueblo was captured. Crossed the Equator one day and went back across the next day on our way to the Sea of Japan. I remember recieving the top secret message telling the Captain to get our asses up there. Ahh, the good times, San Francisco, San Diego, Honolulu, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Olongopo, Singapore.
Years Served: Father was Plankowner…Signing in the guestbook for my father BT1C Robert Manry. He was a plankowner and served on the Bole until his discharge Not sure of dates). I too was a Tin Can Sailor on the Francis Hammond DE-1067 from ’69 to ’73 with a tour to Nam in ’72.
Years Served: 1952 to 1953…I served one year as a Teleman (Mail Man/Typist). The year was 1952 to 1953. Many good memories of the Opertions division. It was an honor to service on this ship. Memories of dedicated radio and radar men.
Years Served: 1963-1967…I was an MM3 while on the Bole, served with Joe Commero, Ron Shipley, Jack Clyborne, Joe Pike and others in Main Control. Several Wespac cruises, went to Kuala Lompur Malaysia, and Viet Nam and other places. Had a Great time with Great people.
