Went in on a "Kitty" cruise; two days before my 18th birthday and was discharged just before my 21 birthday. I had passed the RM2 test but was discharged before the new rank took effect.

Spent a few more months in the reserves and got to sew on my RM2 patch for just a short time.

Would like to hear from any of my old shipmates.

MessageMy father served on the uss boston ca69 as a radio operator during wwii. I have a question that i would like to ask. Does anyone know where i can get a picture of the radio room onboard the uss boston ca69 that was taken during the war? I have been searching for this for over seven(7) years now to no avail. Would appreciate hearing from anyone who may have some info.
Thanks
