Comments: I am a Paralegal with the Law Offices of LeBlanc & Waddell, LLP in Dallas, Texas. We represent Mr. Cleveland J. Alleman, Jr in an asbestos exposure lawsuit. I am hoping to contact former shipmates onboard the USS Hamilton County LST-802 that might recall working with or around our client, Cleveland J. Alleman, Jr.

Mr. Alleman was a seaman apprentice on board the USS Hamilton County LST-802 from 1959-1960. Please respond and let me know if you recall our client from your time onboard the ship.

Thank you for your assistance on this case. Please feel free to contact me at 1-800-805-9799 or via email at lhagar@splaw.com

Comments: onbard 57-60 - great ship & crew. Recall the Matsu Islands crisis, Taiwan Straits transit in typhoon...the Hong Kong trips. Dennis Johnson, the other Johnson, RMC Allen, RMC Perez (81 now in New Mexico). Leroy Ackerman (deceased)RM1 Ernie Gauthier, PN DeAngelous, interested in contact with old shipmates. Many fond memories of Sasebo. Still a beautiful town.
