LARRY HUBERT wrote on February 12, 2012 City and State: WEST SALEM WI Unit: USS HOPE (AH-7) Service or Relationship: NAVY VETERAN Comments: At the end of WWII, I was assigned to the USS Hope and picked it up in Sept 1945 at Manila, Philippines. WWII had just ended and the times were quite joyous. We went up to Japan and pick up about 300 wounded American soldiers and brought them back to the US. It was an intense and marvelously wonderful experience to sail under the Golden Gate Bridge into a land that was free again. I was a Yoeman 3 at the time and worked in the ship's office. Word came through that fleet yoemen were needed at the Bureau of Naval Personnel, so I transferred to D.C. until the end of my enlistment. The only name I remember on the ship is Fr. Maheide, the Catholic chaplain. The ship was headed for mothballs when I left, but I'd heard it served later in other parts of the world. Keywords: USS Hope (AH-7)

SUE (EGBERTS) MANN wrote on June 6, 2010 City and State: Unit: Service or Relationship: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: I wish that I know more about my Father and his place in many conflicts in many places. All I know is that he served on the USS HOPE during the Korean and WWII. Is there anyplace I can find out more. My Father passed away on April 15 1970.And after that, well it was pretty quiet as I remember as an 11 yr. old. My Grandfather John Egberts Sr. served in the in the Army Calvary. I'm told he served bravely and as the rest of his generation had. All I can remember as a child was a photo of him posing with his mount dressed in Army uniform. My brother told me he was awarded the bronze and silver stars for bravery beyond the call of duty. Is this just folklore? Maybe someone out there can put me on the right path. Thanks a grateful daughter and granddaughter, and American Sue Mann Keywords:
