| Message | I am the Australian-based author of a number of books on the history of human space exploration and I am currently engaged in researching and writing a set of six books on the Mercury space flights of the early 1960s. I would like if possible to place in my book some memories of crew members aboard the USS Randolph the day that you welcomed John Glenn on board in February 1962. There must be some great untold stories out there I would love to include in this book. Should you wish to check my bona fides in this request simply type my name into any search engine and you'll see a display of my published works to date. Hoping to hear from some of you. Thank you. Colin Burgess, Sydney, Australia |

| Message | My grandfather, Eugene Denning, is a WWII veteran. He spent a couple of years on the USS Randolph. We love listening to his stories about his time on the ship. One of his fondest memories was spending time in the Panama Canal while they removed the guns from the side of the ship. He still has his yearbook from the ship and has enjoyed sharing it with his family. |

| Message | I served with John Wills aboard the Randolph. I went aboard the ship Sept 1963. He was a RM2 at the time and as I remember, he had been in the Air Force prior to joining the Navy. Also, I think he was from either KY or TN. Vern Soderman RM2 |

| Message | My dad served as a radarman on the USS Randolph's 1954 Med cruise. I'll always cherish his stories. Hot shot pilots refusing to eject from doomed planes, and winding up at the bottom of the Med. Endless and thankless Shore Patrol duty. RIP Dad. |
