Comments: My father was in WWll as well as korea. he was in the navy and I believe a chief petty officer. He never talked about the war days and he passed away 33 years ago. William Lester Pettit ( Bill) I think he did say he was on the ship that brought McArthur home. The only family members left are myself and my sister,his daughters. I would desperately like to learn about the days my father spent in the Navy. I know that he was on the Nashville Dec 20th 1942 at sea. He was stationed out of San Diego. Please write if you have any information .

Many Thanks, Linda

I served in the Navy from 1950-1954. I did two tours with VF-114 
aboard the Philippine Sea CV-47. Then I transferred to VS-38 and did
1 tour with that squadron aboard several CVE's; in Japan; and trips to 
Hong Kong; Subic Bay; off Formossa; South China Sea. 

I am seeking the following:

1. Squadron mates from both VF-114 and VS-38.

2. Anyone who served on the USNS GENERAL NELSON M. WALKER
and andyone who served on an Oiler USS CACAPON.

3. Aso, my brother, 2nd. Lt. William M. Carter was killed
while flying an F-51 while serving with the Air Force.

He went down off Korea on 10 Oct. 1950. He was in the
25th. Fighter/Intercepter Squadron. 

Anyone who knew him or served with him, I would like to hear.

Thanks,

Am looking up the name of a Navy man who was stationed on the USS
Philipine Sea and was drowned on July 12, 1953 at Kamakura Bay, 
Japan, while on an R & R. 

I don't know where to find his name listed. His name was Robert J.
Lawson and he was my fiance. Because he was not killed in action, will
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
there at one time.

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi,
My dad, George Sherwood, and his brother, Louis Sherwood, were 
supposedly the first brothers on the same ship, the USS Phillipine Sea,
in the Korean War since Pearl Harbor. I would like to find out some
information on this. All I have is family say so. Can I contact 
someone who was on the Phillipine Sea who might have known either one of
them? All I have is what family members have told me over the years and
would like more information on it. Thanks for your help.

My Father, Jerry Marvin Pettengill, was on the Philippine Sea, Carrier

hydraulics on the planes as they came in and out. Whatever that is
called. 

He is still alive and well outside of Dallas, TX. He was in the Navy 
from Feb 16, 1948 until Feb. 16, 1952. He has some photos and
memorabilia, including three "crosses" for three battles.

He would like to get involved in some activities, but doesn't know how. 
At his behest, would you respond to this request if you can direct us 
in the right direction. 

Thanks,
