Comments: Clyde O. Groves, Jr. was my grandpa. I have some of his things from his time in the Navy and although it's probably a long shot, if anyone recognizes his name or ships I would love to hear from you. I have a card that reads: Clyde O. Groves Jr. has participated in OPERATION CROSSROADS ordered by the Joint Chiefs of Staff to test the effect of the atomic bomb on naval vessels and conducted at Bikini Atoll, Marshall Islands. (Unit or ship) NavMedResSec / I can't read the signature by: Commanding. The signature of Vice Admiral, US Navy, Commander Joint Task Force ONE isn't much better but it looks like: MAM Blundy? Blandy? Just what did these tests consist of? -I also have the following: card for the Royal & Ancient Order of the Deep -June 16, 1943 /SS Delbrast. Also, Sacred Order of the Golden Dragon, C.O.

Ships of East Coast of Korea 1952

Comments: During 1952 I was assigned to a radio team That worked with Naval Gunfire on the East coast of Korea. We contacted different ships for gunfire support inland on the MLR. I can't remember the ships we contacted. Events and times are lost to me but I do remember calling to certain ships and asking them for support. They would communicate with the forward observers for their fire mission and then we would call in damage reports. Is there anyone out there that remembers working with any of these missions? This was towards the end of my tour of duty and about the only thing I could think of was going home. The time I served with Naval Gunfire was September through November.

Jack Blackmer, lost at sea

Comments: Just dropped by to see if my uncle Jack Blackmer, US Navy, was listed in the war dead. He was not. He was buried in Casey Iowa around 1953. His grave went many years without the proper Korean War KIA marker. I think his parents, my grandparents, had a very difficult time after his death. We, his nieces and nephews, contacted the American Legion around 1976 and they got him the standard bronze marker for his grave. My father, his brother, said that Jack was a Navy Corpsman and was washed overboard but his body was recovered. This is about all the I know about Jack as my father is also rather closed mouthed about him. I would appreciate any other information about Jack Blackmer.

DOES ANYONE KNOW ROBERT J. HANZELKO

Comments: I would like to know if anyone remembers my father -- Robert J. Hanzelko. He was in the Navy and served in World War II and the Korean War. He lived in Stratford, Connecticut and was drafted in his senior year of high school to serve in World War II. He graduated from Bunnell High School and later, from University of Connecticut at Storrs. My father was a radio man aboard a ship but I don't know what the ship's name was. My father passed away at Age 57 in 1983 from a terminal illness. I wish I had more information about his time in the Navy. He never spoke about it very much, which I understand is normal for men. My father was a wonderful man and he would be 75 years old if he were still alive today. I am very interested in knowing any interesting facts that you can tell me about my father. I miss him terribly! Please write as soon as possible! Thank you.
