I had asecond cousin who was killed on the uss quincy, I never met him since I was born in 1946, but I did meet his parents, his dad was my grandfather's brother and I being in the Navy reminded them of him when they saw me in uniform, his name was Joseph Campbell, I'm not sure of his rank, but I think he was Fire control technician, do you know him or remember him?
My grandfather Edward Chabot was a survivor of USS Quincy CA 39 on August 9 1942. He passed back in 1995, I wish I could remember some of the stories. I remember him talking about floating on trash for hour before he was found. He mentioned sharks in the waters...
