    My dad, Joseph Lewis Galvao, was on the USS Rochester. He fought in the Korean war, World war 2 and Vietnam war. Retired Navy. He passed in 2011. Worked hard his whole life. Great man, my father. Man of few words. Not many like him left. Thank you to all the men and women who fought hard for our freedoms and continue to do so. God Bless America! Always in my heart Dad. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Thank you Mr Clanton.

    Perhaps the most unlikely "best" navy ships to be on during the war in the mid '60s were certain of the ugly, miserable LSTs. It was with great dismay I received my orders to LST1032, reporting onboard in Saigon in '66. Living and working conditions were hellish, especially in the tropics, but the crisscrossing of the far east, going port to port hauling all manner of supplies into the Delta and along the coast made it a constant adventure of seeing new places. During my year we visited 20 different locations a total of about 35 times, beaching 18 times, and it was rare when we didn't get some sort of liberty, which with a crew of a hundred was far better than when the big boys sailed in. We also barely survived a typhoon requiring dry dock in Sasebo and Saigon to repair cracked and broken steel...Fantastic memories.

    In 1967 I was an ETN2 serving onboard the USS Bexar APA-237 during an 8-month WESTPAC. We off-loaded Marines and ammo in DaNang, spent several weeks as a barracks ship for the ATC Riverboats in Vung Tau, and sailed up the Saigon River to Saigon to pick up 1500 Thai Queen Cobra troops and transport them to Bangkok. Upon arrival in Bangkok, we were treated like royalty by the locals for bringing home their troops. CWO4 USN Ret.

    7:25 Never happened. On the second night, Maddox and T-Joy were in high seas and the radar returns off the waves spooked them. There were no enemy ships on the 2nd night just waves.
    Edit: Sadly, President Johnson scaled up the war even tho' he knew there was no 2nd night attack.
