Comments: Does anyone that served on the Rochester remember Richard Cortez who was on board 1951 to 1953? I think he was a Mount Capt. on a 5" 38 Gun. He is still alive and just looking for old Shipmats to say hello again to. I will forward any e-mail to him as he doesn't have a computer. Thanks to all, Claude

Comments: Hello all I am looking for a C.E. Meyers who served on the USS Rochester in 1951. He would have been at the San Diego Armed Services YMCA and recorded a 78rpm album and sent it back to a relative in Alton Illinois in Aug of 1951. I have found the recorded songs and the envelope in which it was sent home. I am sure that they would like to have this back if at all possible. And I would like a little history on this if possible.
Thanx

Comments: My Father-in-law, Craig Kingsbury, served aboard the Rochester on both Korea cruises. He attended several reunions in the 1990s. Craig went west in March of 2003. His nickname aboard was "Tiny", since he was one of the tallest members of the crew. He was (I believe) a Fireman 2nd class. If anyone knew him, I would appreciate hearing any stories or remembrances to pass on to his widow and daughters.

In Korea I served on USS Rochester CA 148 from the begining to 1952.
I have three battle stars; Pusan,Inchon and Hungnam.
We were at Hungnam providing covering fire as they made their way
to the the evacuation point so this whole story has made quite an
impression on me.
That Marine experienced two terrible wars in 9 years and died a young
man. -referring to MSGT William John Mc Clung, USMC who died at Chosin
on Dec 7, 1950.
Thanks again.
