Comments: While researching the history of the first navy jack flag that I'm currently flying at my home I ran across the fact that this flag from 1775 flew over the USS Praire for 11 years as the most senior commissioned ship in our navy. I remember my dad Dr. William John vanEe recalling his fond memories of his service on the Praire. He was a Navy Dental Officer who may have been a Commander or Captain after WWII. He told me of playing scrabble with the ship's Captain while sunning themselves on voyages across the oceans. Is that true and do any of you veterans have any memories of my dad that I can share with his survivors ? Thankfully , Jerry van Ee (Retired)

Comments: Recently, my best friend's mother passed away. Included in her personal belongings were numerous pictures of the USS PRAIRIE, (some drawn, some stamped photos.) With those, are several original pictures, (most are dated February 1944, some not dated at all.) of VIPS, military personnel celebrating Christmas aboard the ship, crew photos, or photos of soldiers coming ashore to unidentified islands. There are also many pictures of US soldiers on that tour who are integrating with those islanders I referred to.
As I stated, we're not certain who these soldiers are or where they were touring at that time. Perhaps one of you USS PRAIRIE buffs may be able to guide us in the proper direction? We would appreciate it.
Her grandfather's name was Ralph Vaughn Peterson and was a Chief Special Artificer Optical. (?) He also retired May 26, 1947, after 20 years of service.
FYI: There was also an old photo envelope which held several USS PRAIRIE Crew group photos. (Mostly Christmas photos) On that envelope are the names of soldiers that these pictures were dispersed to, we assume, and these are their last names. Reynolds - Block - Hill - Hubert - Anderson - Dickinson - Rayman - Ringer - Bowles? - Henry - Curry - Cohen - Mauro - Miller - Thomas and Chambless?
My e-mail address is MMMO69@aol.com. Thank you for taking the time to read this add, but most of all, thank you all so much for your bravery and nobility while serving this great country of ours.
