"I'd never heard of this, Tonk. Any comments?"
We, USS CORRY DD 817, were in the Atlantic on training exercises when this happened.
Our ship had returned from Viet Nam just a few months earlier.
Back then there was no sattelite TV or internet access so the crew was unaware of this tragedy.
Thank You for pinging me to this thread.

Anytime, TG.
I was in Chu Lai at the time, but guess this somehow got by me.
Nasty business. RIP. Thinking, Eternal Father Strong To Save.
Good pix, TB.
