Here is a nice story about our own C.J., that appeared in the Newspaper. What a handsome PT BOATER, when you see his photo....http://www.stwnewspress.com/news/stillwater-resident-recalls-time-on-p-t-boat-during-wwii/article_a315a1ca-0332-11e5-afb4-177dfb433f80.html?mode=jqm

Frank and All: I was miss quoted by the interviewer on a few things in this article. Like being "shot at by other PT Boats as well as planes at least 15 times a night" That certainly was not true. Otherwise the article is pretty accurate. I could not believe that Ted found this article which was in the local paper on the internet. PT Boat news sure gets around. Ha

Nice article C.J., and you still have the same smile you had back in the 40's!
That "misquote" is a pisser though, it sounds like you guys got hit by friendly fire 15 times a night. Even so, it's still good to see the newspaper cared enough to publish the article.
