Son of a sailor on the BB-43
I have quite a bit of memorabilia from my father related to the USS Tennessee. He was a quartermaster. I have a map my father kept that tracked the ship through the South Pacific. We also have things like a phone list for the ship, newsletters, letterhead, things like that. I remember how much my father wanted to share his war stories when we were young and we just didn't care back then. Now I would pay anything to hear them.
