[StartQuote] Don't know if it has been mentioned, but Ancestry.com has a free trial period going on right now (Dec 2nd - Dec 7th) for seaching military records. www.ancestry.com/pearlharbor Unfortunately I was not able to identify the specific boats my father (torpedoeman Walter W. Bauer Jr.) may have been assigned to, but I was able to determine a time line for his PT service. Ron 17 (4/10/43 to 8/17/43); Ron 14 (8/17/43 to 7/16/44) and Ron 23 (2/24/45 to 11/16/45). Still some "gaps" but a lot more information than I had previously. In some cases I was even able to find the vessels he was on while traveling from assignment to assignment and the dates of his promotions as he moved up through the ranks from tmc3 to tmc1. Those out there looking for info on their fathers may want to give it a try... [EndQuote]
