Comments: My dad served on the Tparmigan during WW II. He was asigned to the ship on its maiden voyage and served on her through the end of the war. He always told how he helped put her in service and helped put her out of service after the war.
His name is Motor Machinist 1st Class, Robert Schneider, N8515 Hwy 55, Menasha, WI 54952.
He is now 79, and I am sure he would be glad to hear from any old shipmates,
Write him directly or e-mail me, Subject,AM376, fsrepair@prodigy.net and I wil forward the message.

Thanks again
