“Minesweepers USS Velocity, Tumult, Token laid down.”
A couple of years late to this thread. The Velocity was my dad’s ship in the last year of the war.

It is good you pointed out your personal angle, even if a little tardy.
It is kind of fun to revisit an older thread to see how much things have changed. It also reminded me how much I miss Larry381's excerpts and photos and CougarGA7's Life mag posts.
