Ron Childress 1119 riverfront pk Chattanooga Tn 37402 423 7522275 My Father was a member of the "Greatest Generation" that served with Patton in Europe. I was not born when the great BB-43 was active. Being a Navy veteran and a native Tennnesseean, I would dearly love to find some kind of original artifact form the old girl to keep on my boat. An old coffee pot from the WO mess, etc. Anything would be cherished. Trusting you understand. Best regards, Ron Childresss
