Pam Pole wrote on 2005-12-15 00:55:45.0
Comments: Hi,
Does anyone remember my Dad, Charlie Pole? He was from Oregon.
I don't know much about his service, but I do know that he served on the USS Philippine Sea, CVA-47. I also know that he was on board for SURE in 1953. I think he said that he was a "Gunner", but I'm not real sure.
He had to leave the service on a medical emergency because my Mom got in a serious auto accident and he had to come home.
I'm trying to get together a book of rememberances to give him for Christmas. I would like to include in it stories or photos or anything like that. In addition I would like to give him a list of names and address/E:Mail addresses of old shipmates if possible.
Please contact me if you remember my Dad, Charlie [Charles] Pole from Oregon and have anything to contribute I sure would appreciate it.
Thank you for any help that you can give me in this project.

I don't know where to find his name listed. His name was Robert J.

his name be ommitted from any memorials and if not, why?
Drowned July 12, 1953 in Kamkura Bay, Japan while on liberty. Was

He is buried in Ft. Lewis, Wa. because his father had been in the Army
