Comments: I am looking for anyone who remembers my dad, Frederick Howard Gann. He served aboard the USS Titania from 1952 through 1956. He may have gone by Howard at that time. He is alive and living in his hometown of Odessa, MO.

Comments: I was a transient about the Titania in 1950 enroute to NOB Guam and was messcooking. I recall an Aviation Storekeeper Second Class in Supply who claimed that he shipped over on the ship when he was drunk in Alameda. He had been aboard about six month and was the ship's character. He called himself Willy Horsepump.

Comments: Since my dad passed away in January of this year I'm now looking into his service record. Dad didn't talk much about his years in the Navy but I do remember that he told me the first ship he ever served on was the U.S.S. Titania in the last 40's. I would like to get in contact with anyone that could tell me a bit more about what my dad was like when he was young. His name was Willard Carter, but went by Bill or Billy.

Looking for John Houston

Lorena Fisher wrote on 2003-10-07 07:58:15.0

Comments: Hi, I'm looking for info about my dad, John Houston, who served on the SS Titania 1951-'53 or thereabouts. My mom divorced him, and didn't want him to see his baby girl (me). I'm nearing 50 now, with a fine son of my own, whose paternal grandfather was in the Marines and at Chosen Reservoir during the Korean War. If John Houston is still alive and wants to know us, that would be great; if not, we'd sure appreciate any information. I've heard he was a talented pianist and singer; he might be happy to know his daughter has been a performing songwriter, and his grandson is a joy.

Warmly, and thanks to all for your service to this country.
