| Message | I am trying to help my father, Dr. Robert Mansfield Jennings, locate a shipmate, Dr. Herman Kaplan. They served on the Randolph in the Navy Dental Corp (USNR) from 1954-1956 and he became a LT during that time, as did Dr. Kaplan. We know that Dr. Kaplan ended up in California & went on to become an oral surgeon and medical doctor. Would appreciate any information that leads to eventual contact with Herman Kaplan, MD DDS. Thank you! |
