Comments: I was an aircrewman with a VS squadron operating from either USS Sicily (CVE-118), or USS Badoeng Strait (CVE-116) in the summer of 1952. During a night carrier landing attempt the aircraft in which I was a crewman went over the port side of the carrier and impacted the water. All members of the crew evacuated the aircraft safely and we were picked up by the USS Bausell which was the plane guard destroyer during those aircraft operations. Any Bausell crewman who remembers that event please contact me.

Comments: I submitted once before, but now have a new email address. Still looking for T.O. Vinson who was on the Bausell DD-845 from 1952-54, and Al Wilson, who was at the Fleet Facility, Yokosuka 1951-54. I, and both of them, were graduates of the Fire Control Technicians school in San Diego, not long after it was first started.

I'd also very much like to contact Burke "Al" Allen, who also was on the Bausell at that time. I'm 72 now, so these guys are in that age range also.

Comments: I was assigned to Division 2, but spent a lot of time at General Quarters loading a 40mm on the starboard side. When I was there, the ship went to Songjin and Wongjin banging away at the coastal railroad system. We were shot at a few times, but never hit. We made up for the misery with a few liberties in Hong Kong and Keelung. Oh yes, and a little time patroling the Formosa Straits. It was the first and last time I ever heard of the Pescadores Islands.
