Comments: Does anyone remember a special "mattress" mission that happened in 1956 or 1957. We left out of Oakland, CA on USS Windham Bay and took a new mattress set to a Captain in Hong Kong. We stayed around 2 days and came back to California. Let me know if you remember being on this mission, I'd like to hear from you.

Comments: It's nice to know that someone knows something about the good old Windham Bay CVE 92. I had never been away from home until I joined the Navy. The trips were long, sometimes rough. I remember the waves coming over the flight deck, the cracks in the hull, to dry docks in Pearl, the different countries we saw,and the miserable lives people lived in those foreign places. I remember some characters aboard ship, but I don't remember their names as that is not important today. My best friend was Charles Zuber, now deceased, I worked with a Johnson from, down South, and a livewire Joe Decuio, from back East. While I was in the deck force, I remember being the only guy with enough nerve or foolish enough to spray paint the underside of the flightdeck overhang, above the fantail, and our measley 5"38 cannon. The sea was rough that day and the bostain chair swung back and forth as I was spray painting the ship, and myself. I can remember the end of the war in 1953. It was announced over the intercom and I was standing on the fantail.I was sure glad. There is a lot more that could be said in that a tour of duty aboard the USS Windham Bay was certainly a great and worthwile adventure. Ray Spornhauer PO2 P.S. My 21 year old grandson served a full tour of duty (6Yrs) aboard the USS Enterprise during the latest US envolvement.

Comments: My grandfather served aboard the USS Windam Bay during the Korean War as a radioman. His name was Monroe Fontenot, but anyone who knew him would remember him as "Joe." he was from Oakdale, Louisiana. I happened to see a sign a few years ago for a reunion in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, but no one knew him. I would like to hear from anyone who might have a picture of him when he was young.

Questions about manuevers on the Windy Bay |
|

Philip Pantoja wrote on 2001-12-27 21:12:11.0
Comments: I was a member of marine Test Unit 1, 1st Provisional Atomic Exercise Brigade. in the mid fifties. I was a Marine Sergeant at the time and spend some time aboard the USS Windham Bay. I remember some manuevers taking place in which the Windy bay participated in. We were based at Camp Horno, Camp Pendleton California. As a member of the 9th Marines, 3rd Marine Division stationed on Okinawa we participated in Operation Strongback. I want to believe that the ship I was on was the Widham bay. Does anyone recollect any of this? Anybody that served abord the Widham Bay?
