i am reaching out for any men that served with my dad, paul pisano of brooklyn,ny, in the armed guard. he sailed out of ny on the joseph hooker and the thomas l.clingman. 1943-46 he did basic in sampson,ny and gunnery school in norfolk. i have only one picture of him & shipmates. it was on the clingman 6/11/44 and it was taken in iraq. it is a picture of 5 sailors and my dad. the back of the picture lists the men:
williams (west va), watson (west va), bowen(s.carolina), mccarthy(chicago), cassell(n.carolina) and my dad. i would love to hear from anybody who served with my dad. i have finally obtained photos of his ships from mr. william hultgren of erie,pa. he is a dedicated man with an extensive collection that is a labor of love and dedication. either way regards to all armed guard vets and merchant marines- you are not forgotten here.
paul pisano jr, toms river,nj
