Comments: I am looking for anyone who served with my Father, Larry Underhill 1966-1967. He served in the radar room. Please contact with any info you may have on what has happened to the ship if it is still around. The only thing I can find is that it MAY be in moth balls. Any info would be much appreciated.

Comments: My father, then ET3 James R. Kilborn from Wollaston, Mass. served aboard WINSTON fm '46-'48. He later left the Navy and got his college degree. The he re-entered the Navy under a USNR program of the Eisenhower Administrations which commissioned him an Ensign. he went on to duty in USS KIDD, USS WHITEHALL and a few other places I do not recall. He is alive and well and now calls central PA home. He doesn't monkey with computers but I would love to meet anyone who sailed with my dad. He finally retrired in 1973 as a LCDR and I now carry on the family tradition as a Cryptologic Chief Petty Officer on the staff of the Commander Second Fleet. I would also really like to know what became of WINSTON? Scrapped or sold? Thanks, Scott D. Kilborn
