MARC PERLMUTTER wrote on July 12, 2005 City and State: REDONDO BEACH CA Unit: Service or Relationship: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: Alvin was proud to serve his country. He was a plankholder aboard the USS Waxwing. "389" was his favorite number. He continued in securing Liberty and security for his country with his work for the Grumman Corporation for 26 years in the aerospace field. He pursued his love of all things nautical in his civilian life, owning several sailboats in succession from an O'Day Daysailer, to a 19 foot Mariner, to a 23 foot O'Day, to his last boat, the 34 foot Morgan "Sea Roar", his pride and joy. Alvin died 18 Oct 2003. Keywords:

FREDERICK RUFE wrote on March 10, 2001 City and State: PHILLIPSBURG NJ Unit: USS WAXWING Service or Relationship: NAVY VETERAN - KOREA Comments: Is there no one from the Waxwing online? Other outfits have reunions and I see nothing about the Waxwing. I did once see a listing of a man from WW2 attempting to get the men from that era together. However, I belong to the USS Zeal Association that includes both WW2 and Korean Conflict vets. Just a thought. Keywords:
