USS VIRGO AE-30 parked in Hong Kong Harbor, out by Green Island for safety, takes a moment to meet their new captain and say farewell to their outgoing skipper.
Thank you for posting this. What a rare glimpse into my Grandpa's life on the Virgo. My grandfather is Clyde Waldrop, see at the end of the line of officers with 2 and 1/2 bars. Thank you again Mr Dooley!
Wonderful bit of history. I was aboard the Virgo and this brought back some great memories.
Great stuff. My dad served on the USS Virgo in Korea. I still proudly own his battle star from the Inchon Landing.
