USS Hawkins Original Plate

Comments: I came into posession of the original ships plate. USS Hawkins. Measures about 12 inches by about 18 inches, solid brass. I am going to put it on Ebay but I though someone that was on the ship might appreciate it more. I assume it is worth a couple thousand from looking at prices on ebay. I had posted before and apologize if I didn't get back to you.

'TWO BOTTLES'

Comments: My dear friend Clifton Russell was stationed aboard the Hawkins beginning Dec 1944 when it was all shiny and new! He was there when she was commissioned. Seems a captain went overboard at one time. He's 81 now. His nickname was "Two Bottles" because he couldn't hold his beer. Does anyone remember him? Does anyone know anything about the ship during the first years in her commission? Thanks!

Also a replenishment ship, #62, cruiser and another DD in photo waiting their turn alongside. Let me know if you'd like this photo e-mailed to you, part of the USS Kearsarge's Task Force 77 deployment to the Far East as the Korean Conflict was ending.
