Subject: USS Navasota (AO-106)

I was aboard the Navasota from 1952 thru 1954 and had 4 Korean 
tours. Is a list of crew members for that time period available.

It was our mission to refuel the Seventh Fleet ships along the "bombline"
off the coast of Korea.  Also we refueled at other places in the 
Pacific as we were needed.

If any read this, e-mail me at bdy405@aol.com.

Can anyone help me find the location of the USS Hooper Island ARG-17 and
the USS Navasota AO106.

I would appreciate any web site information about these two ships.  And if
anyone knows  where these ships are located today.  I severed on the
Navasota in the Korean war from 52-55 and would appreciate your help.

Ted,

I have located the Navasota it's in moth balls in California but I have no
information on the Hooper Island.  If anyone can help locate the Hooper I
would be grateful.
