Please see the attached photo taken in 1953 in Japan from the USS New Jersey 1951-55.  These men were in the B division.  My father is John James O’Keefe, 3rd from left in photo.  My father tells me that the men in the picture are from left Kenny Ennis, Tony Fansano, John O’Keefe, Nick Gigliano.    Del Fermia may have taken the picture.  Please post this on your website.  Maybe my father can make contact with some old friends

 Thank you,

I have another favor.  Is there any way that you can add my fathers name to the email list, using my email address (solelunaterra@bellsouth.net)?  He would be John O’Keefe – Korean War- 1951-55 – MM3 was his rank.  If anyone wants to contact him they can email me and I will give them his phone number.

 

 
 

Frank Kelly did us all a great favor and scanned the 1953 Cruise book.  Thank you Frank.
