Looking for my grandfather |

Susan Murphy wrote on 2009-06-22 22:44:15.0
Comments: Looking for Jerry O'conner who served on the Badoeng Strait durring the Korean conflict. I have no knowledge about my grandfather, but for what I'm able to find out about the ship he served on 1948-1950 San Diego Harbor. Jerry and my grandmother did not marry. I was born September 29/1950. I had one tiny photo of my grandfather that another also serving on the Badoeng Strait at the same time, sent to me about 10 years ago. It was a photo from a Year Book I believe. My house flooded 4 years ago. During the same storm my home burned to the ground. I lost everything but the small bag I'd packed to stay overnight with a friend. All my photos, keepsakes, house goods, clothes - everything. What hurts the most is the loss of my photos. I'm fine, have put that loss behind me. What I want most of all is another photo of my grandfather. Is there anyone out there who has a photo of Jerry O'Conner? Please send one to me. Thank you so much, Susan Murphy
