When I got home I goggled the ship and realized the old man had been to hell and back on it - from the Solomon Islands to the Phillipines where the ship was hit by three Kamikazes in Lingayen Gulf. A couple of very famous photos of that event are of one of the Kamikazes striking his ship. I wish I could have talked to him longer, especially after learning what the ship had been through.
