1 tour with that squadron aboard several CVE's; in Japan; and trips to

Japan, while on an R & R. 

I don't know where to find his name listed. His name was Robert J.

his name be ommitted from any memorials and if not, why?

Drowned July 12, 1953 in Kamkura Bay, Japan while on liberty. Was
assigned to Phil Sea. He was attached to VC3 out of Moffett Field. 

He is buried in Ft. Lewis, Wa. because his father had been in the Army
