My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.

Were APcs Named?
Quite a few smaller U.S. Navy Ships (well, even LSTs which are big) do not have names and are just known by their type (LST, APc) and the number.
But, I have to wonder if the men who served on them had names they used to refer to their ship?
Just Wondering. --GreGen
