| Message | My father, Raymond L Price, Jr (Ray) was on the Randolph in 1957. I know he came home for my birth late that year and had to return to the ship briefly, before coming home for good to SC. Dad was originally from TN. He spend a good bit of time in the Mediterranean and may have been involved in some cross-border covert ops in the area of Albania. I lost him to lung cancer in July of 1991. While dad had smoked most of his life, I remember hearing conjecture that exposure to asbestos in the Navy may have been a contributing factor. I would be glad to hear from any of his shipmates and hear any stories they may have to tell about him. I never realized just how rich a history this fine old carrier had until I began to read up on it, recently. God bless you all! Ray Price, III |

| Message | Dear Al, The story about Whaley was not accurate. He was a personal friend of mine and this is what really happened. Whaley's wife or girlfriend was pregnant and he derived a scheme to get kicked out of the Navy. He decided to lower himself by rope into the water, the waves and mist was so strong until his grip on the rope became weak and he began yelling and screaming for anyone's attention and fell into the water. Luckily someone on the fantail spotted him floating by, yelling and screaming. Well upon retrieving him he went straight to the brig, where I soon followed him. What gave Whaley away was he folded his clothes neatly in the hanger bay, then lowered himself over. HaHaHa! No West Virginia for Whaley! Ray D-Goat S3Division Laundry |
