EXPLOSION ONBOARD |
| GIOVANNI (JOHN) VIOLA SR wrote on March 25, 2012 City and State: NEWFIELD NJ Unit: NAVY A.J.ISBELL DD 869 Service or Relationship: NAVY VETERAN Comments: A while back I left a message stating we where directly in front of the St Paul when it was hit by shell fire. I recently found I was wrong about that. It was a accident in the forward gun turrent that caused the explosion. When I saw it , I thought it was shore fire..we were very close to the shore. Nobody ever told us anything . We didn't ask, didn't want to know I guess. Keywords: Hospital Corpsman |

FIRST CREW(1945)ON THE A J ISBELL |
| JOSEPH (JL) JAMES wrote on February 13, 2001 City and State: LITTLETON NC Unit: FIRE CONTROL Service or Relationship: - Comments: I was on the A J when it was commissioned in 1945 and then discharged in 1946. For the time, it was the best equiped, best built ship around. Serving on this ship was one of the highlights of my life. My battle station was range-finder operator - I was paid $5.00 more per month for having this position. My rank was FC3.I would like to hear from any of my shipmates from that era. I joined the Navy when I was 17 during WWll. I wonder how many of today's kids would do the same under the same circumstances. I am now a 74 year old with no regrets.
