CVE 112 Plank owners

Column_1_Spacer Column_2_Spacer
Steve Empting wrote on 2005-11-20 20:24:26.0

Comments: My father served on the Siboney right after it was built, and I believe that may have put him on the first crew. His name is Jim Empting. Served under Capt. Ring. All through my childhood he would tell me of being a plank owner of his ship, and that when the ship was set out to pasture, he was supposed to get a plank. The ship has been scrapped for a long time now and I was wondering if he was acually supposed to get a plank, or if that just allows him to just say that he is a plank owner. I have seen his certificate that says he is a plank owner but I can't seem to find any information on this subject. Also if there is anyone that remembers Dad it would be nice to hear from you.

Comments: My grandfather, Richard "Dick" Tubbesing, passed away last week. He was an EM2 and was stationed on the Siboney in the 50's at some point. I have seen the exact dates but don't have them on hand. I am active duty Coast Guard, a Marine Science Technician 2nd Class out of Louisville, Ky. I am trying to put something together for my mom and grandmother about the Siboney, and really have no info as of this point. Any information, pictures, literature that I can get would be gratly appreciated.
