BERRY crewmember who was present when the ship came to the aid of the LIBERTY.  Contact this webmaster and I'll put you in touch with Ron.

3/28/2000 - A message was received from Fred Miller, who was stationed aboard the USS Yosemite (AD-19) at one time.  He reported an obituary in the Schenectady, NY Gazette reporting the death of HENRY JACKSON who served aboard the Berry "during WWII".  His age was listed as 64 years of age which makes him too young to have served at that time.  If anyone can shed a little light on this matter, please contact the webmaster.

1/5/2000 - A message was received from former crewmember, Max L. Bate, RD3, who served aboard from late 1965 until December 1967. Max asked if anyone knows the whereabouts of shipmates, Bruce Wade, RDl, or Richard G. Warner. If anyone can help Max, contact the webmaster and I will forward the message to him.

11/3/1999 - A message was received from Gene Simco regarding an obituary that appeared in a Brentwood, LI, NY paper. It reported the death of Raymond Ortiz, who apparently served aboard the FRED T. BERRY from World War 2 through 1947. Was he a plankowner and do any of you remember him?
