| Message | I went to a Navy family picnic in July organized by Jim Huen who is doing a project related to his father's life (from 1932), and the Navy's treatment of him and other Chinese aboard ships. While there, I saw a picture of four Chinese cooks in Navy uniform who survived the sinking of USS Houston. I also talked to Mr. Ho's two sons and his four grandsons; I also met Ah Chie's son and his grand daughter. Oh, who was that "Ho" guy aboard USS Houston? Well to the Navy, it was unimportant. He would just have to die with the nickname he friends on ship called him - Ah Soy! Somehow I seem to detect a familiar ring here to the Mid East problems today! |

| Message | I am just wondering, if I am not mistaken there were two Houstons commisioned. My father served on one of them that was sunk by a Japanese torpedo. He never told me anything about serving as a P.O.W. though. He also served on the U.S.S. Helena before it was sunk. He passed away years ago and had his ashes scattered at the site the Helena was sunk. I was wondering if anyone might remember him, Donald Eugene Ross. |

| Message | In researching my father's military service I read of the Houston. My father, 2nd Lt Michael J. McCabe, was a Navigator with the 307th Bombardment Group, 424th Bombardment Squadron. Among other targets, his crew bombed Balikpapan nine times. Best wishes to you surviving crewmates and your families. God bless you. -Jim McCabe |
