My Father served on two vessels

[mrt]

His first was Radio Operator on the USS Cobia, after the war he was moving from sub to sub taking those to fleet reserves. After all the subs were permanently reserved he was assigned to the USS Los Angeles which had just been commissioned. He was a radio operator on the 135 and made the first two Korean War cruises. He died young in the mid 50s in an accident.
