This photo taken in the 1970's from a Russian destroyer by a Russian sailor who photographed my destroyer in the background Hull #27! This photo was released by the DOD and found on the Josephus Daniels website! Taken during dangerous operations we were in! During the week this photo was taken, I stood 10 feet from a Russian destroyer that was about ready to hit my destroyer! I whispered a prayer I thought would be my last while the collision alarm was sounding! I was sure my life was about to end, crushed between two destroyers one Russian and one United States! I said, "Lord if you have anything left for me to do in this world! I need your help! Amazingly the Russian ship's bow passed only feet from our side and a miracle happened! I couldn't believe that the Lord saved me from certain death! Along with our entire crew! I have a photo to prove it! It defies all explanation! Miracles still happen! I am living proof! Praise his Holy Name! I so enjoy your beautiful music, it's so uplifting and inspiring! Their ship passed safely down our entire side defying all scientific explanation! The length of a football field!
