My rate was Engine man, I was drafted into the Navy in Dec. 1955, served
first at Harbor Defense, Point Loam, California.
I was assigned to the after auxiliary on the Bennington.
I was aboard for the trip to Australia in the spring of 1957.
I still have the cruise book, the summons, and other information about
crossing the Equator, and some personal pictures.
I also have an article from the newspaper,
with front page pictures of the 4000 or so girls at the dock.
I also have the cruise book from that tour, it is in good condition.
Thank You for returning my e-mail.
