I thought you might be able to point me in the right direction. He was in the NAVY and in Korea from 09/50 - 09/51 aboard the APA-27 or George Clymer. I've been able to determine he made the landings at Inchon in September 1950 then went to the East side along with the Battleship Iowa and that's about all. I'm looking for history for that period with that boat. Can you help? Update: As it turns out, I was able to determine the Deck Logs were available for his boat. After a small process to order the records and a 6 week wait (plus some cash) I received the logs from my dads ship for the 13 months he was on it. These are detailed deck logs in daily increments of 4 hour watches. It lists EVERYTHING the ship was doing and narrows it to within the 4 hour block. It was approx 450 pages (legal size) of the actual logs. I then took them to a local printing company and had them sprial bound. Then came his birthday and what a surprise! If you need any of the link addresses, I think I still have them around. Thanks for taking the time to check up. Thanks. Scott Austin, Tx

A few of us have a reunion every year in Tenn. But, we are interested in what happened to the ship and where we can get a complete list of those who served with us. Thank you.
