Keywords: Anyone on the Telfair in 1957 remember a trip to the Saudi Arabia area with the 3rd Marine division aboard the USS Telfair? I have a friend I am writing a tribute about. His name is Sgt. John wolter, USMC and was in Hotel co, 3-3, 3rd Marine Division aboard the Telfair in 1957. Can anyone tell me about debarkation from Okinawa or the trip to the Persian Gulf area in 1957, early in the year I believe. It was a 6 month float.

Thanks,

SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: FAMILY MEMBER

Comments: My Daddy sereved on the Telfair during the Korean war. He talks about how the ship was there to get out Americans and they didn't think the ship would ever make it home. I am not sure of the exact year. My Dad is Joe Edward Bell. This year he will be 70. I am trying to find things to put in a memory book for him. All the time we were growing up he never would talk about the war. He is just now starting to share with us. He thought he was protecting his family from the ugly side of war by keeping all to himself. I think he was a brave man for what he did for our country and a great man for what he did for his family. If you have any information on him or can direct me in the direction to find out more about him and the men he served with I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you,
Carol Griffin
