Hello,
I thought I would post here as I know there a number of Ex USN chaps on here and I was wondering if you could help me, or more to the point a good friend from work out.
My friends father served aboard the USS Ticonderoga from 1944-48 as a gunner, his father passed away a few years ago but since then he has grown more and more interested in his time in the Navy and especially the Ticonderoga.
Could anyone suggest any websites / forums / associations where he may be able to track down photographs, commissioning / cruise books, or crew lists where he may be able to see his father's name? I may be totally shooting in the dark here, but thought I would ask as I read some great comments and recollections of old Navy stories on here.
Thanking you in advance for reading this.
