I will always have a soft spot for the Guardian as we were married 10/29/63 during his tour aboard the ship.  I have many fond memories.  I have a few things I would like to donate to the yagrs.  Where do I send them?

Dear Frank,
   My name is Patricia Poole Elder.  My father, James Lesley Poole, was killed in a fire aboard the USS Searcher on November 13, 1955.  I was very touched to see the Memorial Page you created to honor the memory of my dad and the three others that gave their lives that day to save the ship and their shipmates.  I am attaching a picture of him in hopes that you will add it to the your website.
 If you happen to know anyone that served with my dad during this time, I would love to talk to them.  Feel free to forward my email address to them.
 Thank you again for honoring the memory and service of my dad in such a special way and thank you for your service to our country.  I, for one, do not take it for granted.
 
Sincerely,
 Patte :0)

For all YAGR'S members, I have provided some details on my Searcher site to describe the events that took 4 lives
in the engine room fire on Nov. 13, 1955.  You can view this on the Searcher website on
http://www.classypages.com/searcher/index.html. There is a link to the memorial page and links listing ship's logs,
newspaper articles and other documentation describing the terrible accident.  If there are any Searcher members who knew Chief James Poole please contact his daughter Patte at the email listed above.

        THANKS first, to Harry Miller who got this organization launched in the first place. Thanks second to those to whom he handed off the task and for the outstanding job you all are performing. The website is spectacular, especially this great, searchable log with it's stories and link to old shipmates. I'm sure I will be back again for some Navy memories and will make a point of submitting some pictures taken aboard GR-6 in 1958-1960.

        I was the leading Aerographer on the Investigator from November 1962 until April 1963.
I was married in September 1962 and reported back for our next cruise when the Cuban Missile Crises erupted. Needless to say my new wife was out of her mind due to the crises.

        AWESOME WEBSITE. JUST HAPPENED TO FIND IT THROUGH THE NEWSLETTER. SURE DOES BRING BACK SOME FOND MEMORIES. I WAS A QM2 AND WELL REMEMBER THE ROUGH WEATHER IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC AND THE BEAUTIFUL WEATHER IN THE SOUTH. I REMEMBER WELL WHEN THE SWKYWATCHER WAS THE FIRST RADAR SHIP TO BE SENT OFF THE COAST OF CUBA DURING THE BLOCKAIDE AND THE BAY OF PIGS INVASION. WE PICKED UP CUBANS TRYING TO FLEE IN ALL KINDS OF WATER CRAFT. WE BROUGHT THEM ON BOARD AND TRANSFERRED THEM TO THE COAST GUARD. I DON'T REMEMBER HOW LONG WE HAD BEEN ON DUTY BEFORE WE WERE REPLACED, BUT WE WERE READY FOR SOME LIBERTY IN KEY WEST. AFTER A FEW DAYS, KEY WEST WAS READY TO SEE US LEAVE. WE KNEW HOW TO HAVE A GOOD TIME ON DUVAL STREET. THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES

       My daddy, Daniel Grover Parker, Sr., served on the USS Interceptor late sometime around 1960-1962. He served as a Roadioman and always talked about his time and friends aboard as some of his greatest memories. He passed away in 2010. Anyone remember him and have any stories to share?

Thank you all for your service and dedication to our country! God Bless!
