Comments: My Grandfather had triple bypass a couple years ago and he's really slowing down. While recovering we spent many hours talking about those NEVER talked about times like it was yesterday. As he told the stories, with teary eyes, he mentioned being in a typhoon. He said the waves were so high that they would buckle some of the larger ships. If anyone served with my Grandfather please send a message. I have a picture of everyone in their dress uniform standing on deck.

Comments: Hello.. My Dad Robert E. Doyle served on the USS St Paul. I know this as I have a photo of him taken on 8/7/53. My Dad passed away this past Saturday and I have been trying to get any information about his time in the service. My Dad did not talk alot about the war and his sister told me that when he came home he was in a lot of trauma for a long time. When I was younger he told me that his ship fired the last round in the war. I was wondering if there was anyone out there that had photos of my Dad or the time when he was there.. Please email me and God Bless you all.. My Dad was from Boonville Missouri and everyone called him BoB.. He also got a tattoo while in Koren, A star on his left hand near his thumb and pointer finger, he told me that he and several of his buddies all got this same tattoo..I hope someone out there knew him and can email me....

Comments: I think I got my comments in the wrong "block" but, I would love to get in touch with Jim Alexander, my brother's friend on the St. Paul. I do not know what unit or division Paul Morgan was in, so, I am not much help. I would appreciate any info you are able to give me. I miss my brother very much and for this July 4th, I want to remember him and to say we live in the best country in the world...all because of our wonderfully brave military!! God bless.

Keywords: Paul Morgan from Tennesse was my brother. He was station on the St. Paul during 1956 to 1959. He passed away with cancer in 1984 and he was always trying to locate his best friend James (Jim) Alexander and was not able to locate him. I would like to do this for my brother Paul, in his memory. I went aboard the ship while it was in San Diego in 1959. Jim was from Galvaston, TX. Jim if you are out there, please contact me. "Smoke gets in your eyes"

Comments: Dad (Raymond E. Hines) was on the USS St. Paul, during the Korean War. He acquitted himself well as a sailor, and later worked for the Federal Aviation Agency and Naval Electronics Systems Engineering Center in Vallejo. Dad was a good provider and hard worker who could also enjoy life, who enjoyed a marriage of more than fifty years to Emily (my mom) before passing in 2001.

I wanted to honor his memory this Memorial Day weekend.
