Interested in contacting any BHR or CCD-1 radiomen or other Task-Force 77 radiomen from that era.

Comments: My father served on the Bonne Homme Richard during the Koeran Conflict. I am looking for anyone who might have served with him. He is still very much alive and just as humours as I am sure he was back then. I just want to know if the picture of him and two other sailors posing with a shark was really caught by him or did the bottles they are holding in the picture have anything to do with story. My dads name is Willis(Bill)Schroeder,at the time my parants lived in New York but came from Iowa. At the present time they live at 208 1st Av SW Farley Iowa 52046

Comments: One Sunday morning we were up around Vladivostok, Russia. About 20 miles off-shore, and the Russians sent a few MIG's over to'check us out'. Immediately the Bon Homme Richard launched a few of their aircraft and the Russian and the U.S. planes checked each other out for a bit, the Russians went away and our guys landed back on the carrier.~~~Joseph V.Tipton, former ETSN, USS Missouri BB63, 1952-1953
Keywords: I was in the Electronics Repair Division ("T" Division) on board the USS Missouri BB63 in 1952-1953, When we were engaged in firing operations on the railroad yards at Wonsan and other ports, the USS Bon Homme Richard was most often the carrier that accompanied us, along with two heavy destroyers and sometimes a heavy cruiser. It was a real comfort to see that carrier not far away!

I'm just curious as to why the "Gray Ghoast" isn't listed as being
in the Korean conflict? Outstanding record fighting in three wars.WWII,
Korea, and Vietnam. The only carrier to do so! She may be scrap now
but in her days, she was a mighty sight to see. Another BHR will be
launched this summer...or at least christened.
Thanks,
