As one sailor to another,I salute you. I served on the USS Independence cv62,I was a BT. I tell people we were all Navy both sides of the family and proud of it. I was on a sawmill site and saw your ship and thought I would look it up.

My name is Greg Flanigan from Elyria, Ohio. I was a friend of James Short from Norwalk, Ohio who served on the Eaton in the mid-60s. Sadly, Jim passed away in Nov 2009. I never knew him in the Navy since we served at different times & on different ships but he always spoke highly of the Eaton. May his soul rest in peace.

I served on USS CONWAY DD-507, sister ship to EATON and USS CONY (DD-508), all of whom operated together for years. I read in the San Diego paper of the passing of Arthur Fischer, a retired Captain who was aboard EATON during WWII and thought you might like to know. We still have quite a few active WWII Vets in our Association, and perhaps you do as well. Last time I saw EATON was in Philadelphia in 1969. Best wishes to you all, Spencer French President, USS CONWAY Veterans Association

Dave Grose, Massena, New York, 67/68. Thanks Joe for the National Archives data, a fascinating historical document. Describes in detail every naval gunfire mission we participated in and for me it answered many unknowns while at general quarters in Mount 51’s handling room! If anyone interested I will forward to your e-mail address. I hope this mail finds all of you and your families well, wishing you a great 2010 and remember you can golf until the day you die!

Hello fellow shipmates, Dave Grose, Massena, New York just saying hello, USS Eaton crewmember, 67/68 Vietnam cruise, the Ship’s Barber! I came across remarks on the board.destroyers.org web page and our shipmate Joe Lind mentions an article written in the February 1968 Cruiser Destroyerman magazine regarding the Vietnam cruise and DesDiv 221. My question to all, do any of you guys have this article and if you do would it be possible to e-mail it to me. Dave
