Comments: My father, Joseph Frank Kufel, age 78 served on the USS Fiske, but I do not know the dates. He served 23 years in the Navy and retired in the mid sixties to go into teaching. He is still living and I wondered if anyone knows him. He was a chief petty officer when he retired. He resides lives in South Florida.
Thank You in advance for any information you can provide me.

Comments: **UPDATE** These four ships traveled together during the time my father served in Korea. Dad advised me that the designation for them may have been A73. They sailed from Rhode Island all through the Mediterranean such as Greece and Italy on their way to Korea. My dad managed to make good friends with the cook (if you knew him you would know why he did that) and several of him and his buddies from the Hawkins would end up in a brawl of one sort or another on the mainland. Dad was from PA (Montrose, Brackney, Choconut) and they all traveled to Binghamton, Johnson City and were pulled over by the police in this instance and managed to talk their way out of being arrested for speeding and general rowdiness. If any of you remember any of this vaguely sounding familiar, please feel free to contact me via mail or e-mail. I would love to hear these stories from another perspective. Thanks from a grateful daughter to all of you who served. A special thanks goes out to those of you who forwarded information on to me about the Hawkins, that was very much appreciated by me and my dad.

Comments: I was aboard U.S.S. Doyle DMS 34 (A high speed mine sweeper, subsequwntly used in the filming of THE CAINE MUTINY) in Jan 1950. I was sent to the Naval Station for discharge three daysbefore the Doyle was sent to Korea. I was discharged, but re-called to duty in October '52 and sent to Boston, where the U.S.S. Fiske DDF842 (decommissioned at the time) was in drydock being overhauled and recommissioned as U.S.S. Fiske DDR842. She was subsequently sent to Gitmo for shakedown. While there U.S.S. Wisconsin arrived on a mid-shipman cruise. 20 of us from Fiske were lucky enough to board her for an extended weekend cruise to Port au Prince Haiti. Thence back to Boston for minor repairs and radar equipment up-date. Thence to Newport, Rhode Island, our home port. Operation Mariner, to Greenland and Iceland introduced us to heavy weather sailing, and related damage. Back to Newport. I was transfered to U.S.S. Braine DD630 in Boston, awaiting discharge in October '54. Salt water does get in your blood, and there is no cure. My children will tell you, and now my grandchildren will suller the same auditory assault!
P.S. I'm not really an admiral, but it was my nickname in grammer school.

Comments: I think you had better check your dates as to when the tour of duty took place. I had just finished boot camp at the great lakes in june of 1950,when I was immeadiatly put aboard the Fiske, we had no leave after boot camp. I went aboard and we were headed for korea right away. We took a short jaunt to newfoundland ,and that was it . your dates are wrong!!!!!
