23 Jan 2000 Clement S. Boulter P.O. Box 201 Marfa, TX 79843 Dear James, Here are the pictures I told you about of the USS Diodon, SS-1 crew and men qualified while on WestPac August 1960, Guam, MI. My hand writing wasn't very good, and still isn't, so will type names the best I can. Crew List: Top row, Left to Right: Larry Allen, Earney, ???, ???, Kevin Getz, Alley, Pamatawn, Ussery aka "Useless", Thad Sowell, Crowson aka "Crow", Ang, T.J. Fini Marvin Koon, Don Fishel, Tom Bates, Parsons aka "Red", Williar aka "M.D.", C.C. St.Martin RMl(SS), Breen.
Middle row, Left to Right: Yeo, Kenneth Hand, Arlie Collins, Melvin Cooper, Plantey aka "Red" Smith, Harry Molder, ???, George, Hanz, ???, Rockwell,???, Plitze, Donald Corcoran, Clem Boulter, Anderson, Peaco?, Metcalf aka "Doc", Woods, Triphoney?, Bill Caldwell, Gibs.
Bottom row, Left to Right: Chief Mastrich, Chief ???, Chief Booth aka "Daddy Long Legs", Chief ???, Chief O'Brian, Chief Quarteriel?, Chief Roberts "COB", Lt. Burgett, Lt. Jurkowski, LtJG. Kimball, LtJG. Brannagan, LTJG. Slayman, LT. Garaffeus?, LT. Johannsen, LCDR. McConngey, and LCDR Wahl "CO".
I remember writing these names, or attempting to, some time after I left Diodon therefore some are missing or misspelled. I am sure if you put this out on the net, someone out there will make corrections. |
