| Comments: | I came aboard the Endurance in March 1962 while she was at Subic Bay for R&R. I’d just graduated from EM “A” School and was an EMFA. I remember Ron Ringlein was an EM2 who was my immediate supervisor. Ron was a big fan of the Roadrunner and had roadrunner and coyote tattoos. The EMC was Gene Wesley but we seldom saw him in the shop. Ken Adkins was another EM2 if I remember correctly. I proudly served on the 435 until I was transferred to USS Acme in August 1964 as an EM2. This website brings back some good memories of those days. Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this great tribute to Endurance.

| Comments: | I was a sonarman on MSO435 from 1967(?) to 1969 during two Westpac tours. I have a lot of slides I took during those years which I need to scan for archiving and sharing. (Good project for this summer.) How/where can I upload the pictures or make the pictures available? Feel free to contact me if you care to. (I live in San Jose, CA.) |

| Comments: | Anyone who was on the 70-71 Westpac, Now Hear This!
Philip Ray and I are going to meet in March in Las Vegas. I found a very nice Hotel/Casino that I have stayed at many times with a $29/night rate. How about a reunion? I have e-mail addresses for Cotton, Dunkle, Wark, Hearn, Captains Schlegelmilch and Stouffer. I will send them e-mails. If you want in, e-mail at my address (hizonr08@aol.com) and I will mark you down. I would love to have Richard DeRosset who did the beautiful painting of the trawler scuffle, and David Bruhn who wrote the book "Wooden Ships and Iron Men" there too. Mark your calendars and start making arrangements. Bring your photos, Zippo lighters and anything else you still have! Dan Hyatt |

| Comments: | Mike Burdick RM2 served on Endurance 1/62-8/62. When I reported aboard in Long Beach I was coming off 19 months on Guam and swore to never return. It was a short time later we were pulling in to Guam. Man I was sick. Speaking of sick, I'd done 7 months on a Destroyer DD 717, and thought I was pretty salty. When Endurance cleared the Long Beach breakwater I was flat on my back for 3 days. Ed Titus Rm2 was in the radio shack with me and a striker named Boreson I beleive. I remeber Bruce Riley ETSN, and Dave Eldridge ET2. Some good people. One of the unidentified EM's in a picture on this site I think is a Texan named Durham. He grew up on the Texas gulf in shrimping country. He usually had a big red bandana around his neck and was barefoot. Durham had many tallents but the one remember most was his ability to pick up a cup of coffee with his toes and raise to drink from.
Anyhow, great side keep'em coming. |

| Comments: | Joined the Endurance crew in March 1965. Pier 9 Long Beach.
Left for Vietnam later that year.Was a seaman (Deck Ape) the entire cruise. Never forget my buddies like Cintron, Joe Garcia,Dave Patterson, Signalman Sawyer, and so many others. Westpac was an exciting place and very special to all of us oldtimers. Left the Endurance when we returned from Vietnam for shore duty as a E-4 Personnelman. Great memories and god bless the entire Endurance crew. Archie |

| Comments: | I served during the 70/71 WestPac deployment. My battle station during the famous trawler action was in the radio shack manning the deadly Model 28 teletype. There was a lot of communication going on that night as the XO kept up with the action and dictated action reports for me to send up the line.

| Comments: | Does this bring back memories. I was aboard for the 70-71 cruise.
I went looking for more info after acquiring a book by Cdr. David D. Bruhn entitled "Wooden Ships and Iron Men" (remember the misspelled lighters?). The Endurance is on the cover, and a narrative of the trawler fight is the first story told. I did my small part in the radio shack, alongside the XO as he tried to keep up with the action and draft reports for me to send off. I would love to acquire a print of Richard DeRosset's painting of that night. After all, I didn't get to see anything!!! Does anybody have any leads. I would also like to hear from shipmates, especially anyone living in the Puget Sound area. I live in Shelton, buy my business takes me all over western Washington. |

I went aboard as a SN and left as a BM2. I have been a regular visitor to this site for the past 4+ years. In that time, I have been able to hook up with many of my brother shipmates (Tony Segarra, Dennis Rhoades, Scott Palmer, Charley Wymer,Rocky Cline, Roy Kriedel). I thank you for the opportunity to reestablish a relationship with these men. They were a BIG part of my naval service and and big part of the memories that I will always cherish. |
