[StartQuote] One of the more difficult questions to answer. Since he was assigned to the base, he wouldn't have been assigned to a boat. He was there to maintain the boats. But, saying that, that doesn't mean he didn't go out on a patrol on a boat, filling in for a crewmember on any number of boats in the squadron(s) who were at the base. In order to find that out, you'd have to identify the boats that were there, then pull all of the logs at the National Archive for those boats and go thru each log to see if he was logged in as riding the boat. I've tracked his path from MTB Base 3 to MTB Base 2 (Base 3 changed designations to Base 2 in June 43) and then Base 3 shut down in Oct 43 and everyone moved to Advanced Base Navy 140. He is at 140 through March 44 which is the last muster roll I can find so far. Any idea where he went afterwards? Charlie Charlie[EndQuote]
