| Message | Served aboard the Randolph from Nov 57 till Mar 1960 in V1 Div crew 3 and OA div after i made AG3..I loved every minute of the time although i'm sure time has made it even better. i noticed that Richard Spacier AN was never mentioned.. he was killed when he walked into a prop on a AD on our last respot of the flight deck before we entered Palma de Majorca to spend christmas of 57.. Richard was in Crew 6 but we shared crew shelters just aft of the starboard elevator. nothing was mentioned of losing catwalk on the forward port side chasing a russian sub in the north Atlantic after coverting to a CVS.. I still have my 57/58 Med cruise book if anyone needs coppies of some of the pics. I just found this web site.. Great work guys. Leo M. Swanson |

| Message | Irvin Morgan is my Uncle. I discovered his navy service on the USS Randolph through my genealogy work and talking to him about his service aboard. He was responsible for an elevator that lifted the planes to the flight deck. Irvin is doing well. My name is Chuck Morgan. |
