Comments: I am looking for anyone who served aboard the USS Bremerton at the close of WWII, about 1946-48. Mainly I am looking for any of the signalmen. My father served during this time, and I would love to locate anyone I can for him. He has a lot of fond memories of this time, and I know that he would like to get in touch with these people. He was on board while the ship was docked in San Diego, Nov. 2, 1947, when Howard Hughe's "Spruce Goose" flew for the first and last time. If anyone served with him, would you please get in touch with me? His name is Richard C. O'Dell, and he is from Michigan.

My understanding is that the old ship was scrapped years back. We have over 700 members in the
