Comments: My father, Donald L. McNown, served aboard the USS Eversole (DD 789). His dates of service are 8/27/51 through 5/3/54. He passed away 7/16/08. I found a pin in his effects that I am trying to identify. It is a miniature metal pin with color enamel flags. To the left is the flag of the United Kingdom. The flag of France is on the right and a shield of the United States is centered. Hanging below is a bar with 2 blue stars on white, with a red border around the edge. Efforts by a friend of mine in the Naval Reserve led to speculation that it may be from the "Blue Star Mother's Society." Nobody can explain the 2 stars. He was the only family member enlisted in the service. I can send an image of the pin to anyone who may be able to identify it.

I also found a photo of his unit from the San Diego Training Center. It is dated October 1951. If anyone is interested I can e-mail a scanned copy. I also have a couple pictures of Dad in uniform on base and on the deck of the Eversole.
