TRAINING INCIDENT |
| VICKI NORTHEN wrote on June 6, 2004 City and State: DUVALL WA Unit: Service or Relationship: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: My father, William E. Northen, was on the Segundo in 1951 - 1952. He was 19 years old, an I.C. Electrician "3-striper", 6'5" tall and green-off-the-farm from central Texas. About January of 1952, a training incident occured where one of the destroyers ran over the Segundo while it was at periscope level. Afterwards,he had the portside watch and got a good look at the damage from the destroyer's screw to the conning tower and deck. My dad's memory is now fading somewhat and I would love to hear from someone regarding this time period or if anyone knew him then. Thanks so much, Vicki Keywords: |

USS SEGUNDO |
| BERNARD MOUZER wrote on October 1, 2002 City and State: POOLE UK Unit: Service or Relationship: INTERESTED PERSON Comments: I have a very heavy metal ship's badge from USS Segundo. It is the same sort of thing that I recognise as a gun's tompian cover from my own service in the Royal Navy. Until today I had no idea where it came from and had never heard of such a vessel - other than seeing this name on the badge. I served in the Royal Navy during World War 2 and helped return lease lend vessel HMS Rajah to Norfolk, Virginia after the war. I visited Maryland in May 2002 where I have a good American friend and sailed his yacht on Chesapeake Bay. I will now give this badge of USS Segundo a proper place in my home and think about the good men who served in her. Keywords: Ships |

| ADRIAN FIELDING wrote on May 11, 2002 City and State: AUCKLAND Unit: Service or Relationship: INTERESTED PERSON Comments: I can remember as a young lad going down to the Brisbane River [Australia] where I was fortunate in being allowed to board the USS Segundo. It must have been about 1945 or 1946. I think the boat was commanded by a Lt. Cmdr. Little, but perhaps my memory is playing tricks with me. It is most interestin to have found information regarding you boet on the net. Good luck to you all. Keywords: |

| JERRY HALL wrote on June 24, 2000 City and State: CHESAPEAKE VA Unit: USS SEGUNDO SS398 Service or Relationship: NAVY VETERAN - KOREA Comments: Please add the SEGUNDO to the list of ships that were involved. We arrived in Yokuska at the very beginning of the conflict in early July, then we went back again about 1 year later. Made 4 simulated war patrols 2 on each visit. Basically we were off Russian coast on all four patrols.
