JOHN LUND wrote on January 1, 2004 CITY AND STATE: EVERETT WA UNIT: OPS DIV SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: ......... Comments: I came aboard in Nov 1960 from ETA school. I remember the JO's car in the well deck of the first LCM aft of the superstructure and the trip over the side provided by the typhoon after it broke loose, rammed the ramp down and disembarked. Days at White Beach Okinawa, drinking beer at the beach club while the ship was being loaded with AV gas in drums and munitions simultaneously, halfway expecting the whole ship to explode. Stops in Yokosuka, Nagoya, Sasebo, Naha, Hong Kong. A collision alarm in the South China Sea - "now standby for collision, standby for collision, captain to the bridge, captain to the bridge." The formation had made a flank turn, we were going to make a turn, in line, which placed us on a course directly across the formation and close proximity to the bow of an APA. I remember the APA bow touching the life raft nest on the port side. Anyone else remember those events, places, etc. I left after the ship returned stateside for another school, KWR-37, in NAVSTA Mare Island and then finished my tour aboard the USS Jerome County, LST-848, supporting our high altitude nuclear tests at Christmas Island and Johnston Island in the Pacific Missile Range. Left the Navy as an ET2, recieved a BSME from the UW in Seattle, and designed some equipment for the US Navy's FAST system while working as an engineer for Western Gear in Everett, WA. I would enjoy hearing from anyone who served aboard during that time. Fair winds and a following sea - John Keywords: Anyone else remember the typhoon enroute to Subic Bay from Hawaii, 11-12/60?
