Found a Zippo

Comments: My great uncle Robert Austin left me several Zippos and the U.S.S. Cadmus is one of those. I wanted to find out if the lighters could have only been purchased on that ship?

And if anyone remembered him. I think he was a welder because some of the other lighters are Eutectic welding. Thanks.

U.S.S. Cadmus 1930s era

Comments: My Dad(retired Navy and 86 yrs old) told me of all the ships he served on, and Cadmus was one of them, along with Detroit, Tuscaloolsa-Roosevelt and Churchhill were aboard- and another ship sunk in the N.Atlantic, Christmas Eve 1944,? He was on the Cadmus in the 1930s, before the war, is it the same ship?, His name was Roy Sparks, retired as a Chief., I think he was on it when it was docked at the Navy Yard, Wash. D.C.

Cadmus 1956-1959

Comments: My brother, Louis R. Mercaldo, served on the Cadmus from around 1956-1959. He suddenly passed away on March 19, 2002, at the age of 63. Today, his ashes are being released into the sea off of Cape May, New Jersey, aboard a Coast Guard Cutter. I was very young when he served, (I'm 12 years younger), but I do remember that he went to Italy, France, Spain, Gibralter, and perhaps other places during his time on the Cadmus. If anyone remembers Lou Mercaldo and can share any stories, my brother, myself, and his widow and three daughters would love to hear them. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Dorothy Mercaldo McCrane
