The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Wants to Join the Navy
From the April 4, 2018, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois) "Looking Back."
1943, 75 Years Ago.
"William S. Boies submitted to minor surgery on a toe this week, for the purpose of making it possible for him to pass the necessary physical examination to enter the navy.
"The surgery was performed at Sycamore Hospital."
I did not see his name on DeKalb County World War II Genealogy Trails, so he survived the war.
