USS Corry taken in Malta about 1965.
You can almost make out Rick Palmer at quarters on the torpedo deck.
It was sent to Rick by Chris Hodge in England who is retired CPO electrician
Royal Navy and lives near Portsmouth England where there is a photo
studio that has a huge archive of warship photos. The photographer
recently bought out the negatives from one in Malta where this came
from. He is sending Rick a perfect copy from the original negative.
There might be a few for the next reunion if you all would like. |

Attached is a picture of the Corry's
DASH taken sometime before it crashed into the ship. Does anybody out
there remember that?

Thanks
to Jonas Parsons HT2 we have some more very nice pictures to look
over. Jonas found the patch in the bottom of a drawer, guess it
had been there a long time. I was particular interested in the
below decks pictures of the fire room or boiler room, we have many
pictures above deck and very very few below decks. I spent 4 years
in the forward fire room as we called it and this is the first
picture I have seen. How about you guys looking around and seeing
what you can find.
Jonas
has made my job easer by adding comments to the pictures, just
click on any picture to see an enlarged picture.
Thanks
Jonas |
