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 Thanks Joe for the National Archives data, a fascinating historical document.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

My father Denam "Denny" Elledge was on the USS Eaton during WWII. He was friends with Mr. Geeslin who the blog says died a few months back. I will advise my dad he's passed. My dad is still living at 88 years young and is doing quite well. If anyone out there remembers him, I'm sure he would like to hear from you through me as he has no computer.

I was rescued from the Bay of Pigs beaches during April 1961. The Eaton saved my life as well as my uncle's life (rip) I was treated with great love by the crew members. I will never forget as long as I live. I still have a zippo lighter from the DDE510. Desi Sanchez, Brigade 2506. Hialeah GArdens, FL. God Bless you all.

I remember many a night on the bridge of the USS Beale talking with the bridge of the Eaton Via flashing light. It was the only way an SM could practice his trade. This was during the 1960-1962 years which included the Bay Of Pigs and The Cuban Blockade. Those are remembered times.
