My uncle, Donald A. Heist, from Butler, PA was killed on the USS Underhill. I was told that my grandparents attended a few of the reunions. Would there be any pictures or details on the locations of the reunions? I wish I would have asked my grandparents and mother when they were alive, but I know it was a sad subject. There was always a picture of him in their living room. My other uncle was in the Marines at the same time and I have a picture of them in uniform together. |

The USS Underhill has been a part of our family’s fabric for many years. My father was in the 96th Infantry, the division that DE 682 was escorting back from Okinawa at the time of its sinking.. He landed on Okinawa on April 1, 1945 - Easter Sunday. He spoke often of the battle….it was terrible. 14,000 boys lost. My father’s name: Thomas Underhill. Strange fate of war. |

My dad Ben Raboy was in the Navy and served at Fleet Hospital 114 in the Philippines in Oct 1945. I think he was a pharmacist mate. How can I find more info.? At the age of 65 he died in 1980. Thank you! |
