Hello -
My dad was on the USS Quincy when it sunk. He received a Purple Heart and was one of the crew that helped the wounded off the ship as it sunk. He recorded his story in a compilation book that several of the Quincy survivors wrote (they used to hold annual reunions) and I also have his story on audio tape.

He passed away in 2001, but I can only hope that our generation can keep their memories alive.
