It is dated May 1948, I am interested in finding out what my grandfathers role was on the Princeton in 1948. I have been told he was part of radio transmition? Any information anyone may have about him I'd love to hear.

MY FATHER SERVED ON BOARD THE PRINCETON

SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: NAVY VETERAN

Comments: My father William Alfred Kane was called back into the service after the outbreak of conflict on the Korean peninsula. He was part of the shakedown cruise that rushed the USS Princeton out of mothballs at Bremerton WA., ferrying aircraft to Korea. This shakedown cruise I learned a few years ago was featured in a Saturday Evening Post article which I bought of off Ebay. My father worked in the boiler room from sometime in 1950 to 51. The famous picture of the 2 Banshees dumping fuel flying past the Princeton in the background before landing on deck was used in our local newspaper to announce his return to service.
He captured many a landing and take off with his movie camera and shore leave time in Japan, which I have enjoyed watching over the years obviosuly in his off duty time. My father died at an early age in 1983. He also served onboard the heavy crusier USS Pensacola CA 24 in the Pacific theater joining the Navy following Pearl Harbor from 1942 to 1946. I am very proud of my dad wishing he had more openly talked his time in the Navy with me.

Comments: My dad J.C. Burt was on the Princeton from 1951 through 1953 I do beleive. He had these ship yearbooks that I remember when i was very young. He used to tell me all kinds of stories of things that went on while enlisted. He also had a 45 rpm record that he made with some other guys on the ship as he told me and the song was "That good ole'mountain dew". Does anyone remember that. I think he was a macinists mate. J.C. died in 2004.

My uncle was also on the ship his name was Lloyd Shoemake and I think he was a boatswains mate. This is how my dad met my mom from a picture my uncle had in his locker. He was killed in 1962 or 63 due to a work related accident here in Atlanta. He was also a big Triumph motorcycle enthusiast.

I miss them both greatly!

If you remember either of them let me know!

Comments: Growing up in Chesterton, Indiana; in the early 1990's; I always took the time to listen to the old sailors talk about their ships. I add this submission to remember two of them. Dave Milosevich, served aboard in the 1950's twice, I believe he was aboard during the Korean War. Al McNeil, served at least one tour. I was there in their presents when they both learned that they were aboard the "Sweet P" at the same time. They recalled memories of the Regulas Missile firing on the forward flight deck, and being "sunk" by the USS Nautilus (SSN-571). Dave enjoyed razzing Al about being a "Sea Going Bellhop", who was proud of being the skippers guard. One day in Dave's office were he proudly hung a picture of the Princeton, Al gave him an old zippo lighter with the ship inscribed on the cover. Al McNeil passed away shortly after that (July 1994). They both were proud and honored to have served on the Princeton. Thank You.

Comments: My father is Homer M. Hallman. He served aboard the USS Princeton when it took Capt. John M. Hoskins aboard and when it took the ashes of the President of the Phillipines to their resting place. He tells tales of men he knew. I would love to find someone who remembers him.
Thank you,
Pamela Hallman Jacobson

Comments: I am writing this for a cousin Eugene (Gene) White who is looking for some buddies who served with him from 1945-1946. Eugene does not have a computer and asked me to see if I could find out any information for him. He did mention to me the name Ray Morley. Are there any others out there who served on this ship with Gene? Please E-mail me and I will be the go-between. Thank you.

Gene and his wife are retired living in an assisted living facility in Florida.
