I am preparing a History Channel film on FDR and wondered if any members of the association travelled with FDR to Yalta. I would love to hear from them if they did.
David,
I served aboard the USS Quincy CA71 from 1943-1945 and was aboard during the presidential cruise when we took President Roosevelt to Malta. He flew from Malta to the Yalta Conference. We proceeded to the Great Bitter Lake in the Suez Canal and Pres. Roosevelt flew from Yalta to Cairo and he came back aboard in Great Bitter Lake and returned him to the United States. I served in the F division. feel free to email me.
Regards, Harry B. McKee
