ABOUT THIS SITE
This site is intended to be a remembrance of a proud class of ships known as "Four Stack Destroyers", and the men that served in them. My father was one of those men, and I was prompted to create this memorial when I found his Journal and photos from the war, after his death in April of 1998.

The Journal covers 1941-42, when it was ended because of wartime regulations against keeping a private log onboard ship. It is my intention to add a journal entry every day for the next two years, including my father's photos when they appropriately illustrate events and locations he describes. I will also be adding other historical background information so we can see what else was happening in the world at the time.
I hope you will come back and visit regularly so that I may share with you a small part of the history of that amazing and frightening time leading up to the United States' involvement in World War II through the eyes of one man who was there.
