Served on USS Finch DER-328 April 1965 – Dec 1966. Sonar Technician/with Gunners Mate duties on 30 Cal. Machine gun on open bridge wings. I will never forget making those BT [bathythermograph] drops off the fantail in rough weather. Walking the 02 deck with a Thompson Submachine Gun, wearing a flak jacket and a black beret on Operation Market Time patrols. I presently live in Matthews, NC. just outside Charlotte. Go Panthers! Retired from the US Postal Service. Would love to hear from any shipmates that served DE duty.
