Hello,


My Dad served on the 221 boat. Are you a crew member of the boat? His name was John Matthews. The crew called him "ducky". I have this photo also, but he is not pictured in this particular photo, because he was sick that day and at the infirmary. Please contact me or reply to this message if you wish. I would like to exchange information.

Paul,


I have emailed you with several photos today. Enjoy my friend, and let's stay in touch, the same way that all of us as a family stay in touch with our message board.

Jerry, Nice pics. That one of the crew I don't have. I have a similar one. I copied over the one that you show. Thank you.
