MessageMy father Tom McCarthy served on the Randolph from 1956 to 1959. He passed on April 29th of this year. He took a lot of pride in serving in the Navy all these years. Unfortunately we didnt find this page until after his death. He would have been very thrilled to have seen this. He talked about the people he served with and often wondered what happened to a lot of them.

Dad was given military honors at his funeral provided by the American Legion and the US Navy.

In going through his things, we located a lot of his Navy stuff like uniforms, pictures, his tour book and many other things.

Anyway, this webpage gave a lot of information and is very impressive! Thank you!

MessageAs a young midshipman I served aboard the Randolph during the summer of 1961 and was aboard her when she recovered Astronaut Grissom. He was pretty relieved to alight aboard the Randolph's flight deck. I spent three weeks berthed under the catapaults and worked in the engineer spaces ... no wonder I chose a career in the Marine Corps, however I treasure those days and mid-watches aboard the Randolph. Semper Fi to all her shipmates.

MessageTo: LTJG Raymond A. Butler

I served aboard the Randolph during the same time period. I only went to sickbay a few times during my time aboard. You were most probably the Doctor that told me that I had the flu and needed to stay in bed a few days the day before we crossed the equator. I missed out on the fun of my first crossing but I only blame myself for not going through it anyway. Sorry I don't remember you by name. There were some good days and some bad days back then but "all in all" I enjoyed my tour. Contact me some time. There's probabaly a lot we can talk about.

MessageMy father, John Elmer Rhodes, was a musician and served aboard the USS Randolph. Sadly, Dad passed away in 2005 just short of his 92nd birthday. He always talked about his time on the Randolph and was on board when it suffered severe damage during a hurricane.
