looking for info about my dad

Comments: My father, Charles Ralph DeBord served on the USS Hector somewhere between 1944-1946. I know he went to Saipan while on board. I would like to hear from anyone who remembers him. He passed away 8/22/2001, and I am trying to get any information available. Someone on board was very kind to my dad concerning a personal matter at home while he was in the Navy. He never found out who the person was to thank him. His superiors knew about the favor and I feel certain that there would be a record somewhere, but I haven't a clue how to begin my search. Does anyone know what I'm talking about or know where I would begin to try and find out more? Any help would be greatly appreciated! God bless you!
