Item description from seller

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book is an Historical Account (some may say it is a Museum Exhibit all by itself) of the USS SOLOMONS CVE 67 and U860 which was sunk by the USS Solomons CVE 67. It is told by the crewmen and their photos. Its in the format of a Family Photo Album, by the time you finish reading this book, you will know these men Personally. This book makes it blatantly clear how important it is that we talk to our Veterens, record their stories and make copies of their photos. Who would have ever thought that 60 men could have enough stories to fill 547 pages, and over 810 photos, and documents, or that they would be so Happy! And willing to share Their Memories. Additionally, this book shows just how little time we have left to record their memories.Since I started this project in February of 2002, until now, March 2005, five of the men that contributed to this book have already passed away. They will never get to see the book that they helped write. They are now Gone Forever! BUT! They will now be Remembered Forever!, along with their stories and photos.The five men are: David R. Green S1/c, USS Solomons CVE 67; Passed Away 27 April 2002, Age 77 Frank S. Rojewski S1/c USS Solomons CVE 67; Passed Away 10 May 2003 Age 76Joseph Ernest Comeau S1/c, USS Solomons CVE 67 (My Dad); Passed Away 26 June 2003, Age 77 Adolf Lundquist, U860 Crewman(U860 was sunk by USS Solomons CVE 67); Passed Away December 2003, Age 90 Joseph Montana, USS Solomons CVE 67; Passed Away 12 January 2005, Age 78Read this book. Then talk to the Veteran that you know, write down His or Her stories and make copies of any photos. Put them in a folder, give each of His or Her Family members a copy, so that the Veteran will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!OUR VETERENS HAVE EARNED THE RIGHT TO BE REMEMBERED!!THANK YOU!! REVIEWS Joseph Comeau's book on the history of this can-do carrier and her World War II crew reads like a veteran's scrapbook, which it is in a way. There's no narrative in the traditional sense; the book consists of first-hand accounts, rare personal snapshots, and reproductions of contemporary documents, such as a 'Welcome Aboard' pamphlet produced for new arrivals aboard the SOLOMONS. Comeau's father, Joseph E. Comeau, Sr., served aboard the SOLOMONS, and the book is a tribute to Comeau Sr. and his shipmates. The book is a wealth of obscure photos and the small details of life aboard a 'jeep' carrier during the Atlantic War. Doug Buchanan, Editor of Anchor Watch The Official Journal of the Historic Naval Ships Association, July 2005.…
