Date: Wed, 27 Oct 1999 22:20:39 -0700
Here are the dates from the Duncan's Ship logs the best I can
determine them....they may be off by a day or so either way.
Periods of Korean Duty for USS Duncan:
1. Dec 1, 1950 - 18 Jan 1951.
2. Jan 23, 1951 - 06 Feb 1951.
3. Feb 27, 1951- 13 Mar 1951
4. Apr 26, 1951 - 07 May 1951
5. May 16, 1951 - 29 May 1951
6. Jun 14, 1951 - 18 Jul 1951
7. Mar 14, 1952 - 02 Apr 1952
8. Apr 16, 1952 - 27 May 1952
9. Jun 08, 1952 - 22 Jun 1952
10. May 19, 1953 - 26 May 1952 (Duncan hit by Korean Shore batteries on 26
May off Hodo Pando)
11. Jul 26, 1953 - 19 Aug 1953
12. Sep 02, 1953 - 22 Sep 1953
If you need to get specifics on what the Duncan was doing and where she
was in Korean waters during these 12 different periods during the Korean
war, then go to the Ship's History section.
