Re: Re: Re: Coast Guard ship during World War II

Dear Mr. Lewis:

Thank you so much for your message. I'm so very sorry about the loss of your Uncle.

Thank you so much for sharing your story about him serving with Victor on the Storis! That is so kind of you to offer to scan that photo of them when you find it! That would be wonderful to see!

Thank you so much again for sharing your story and for visiting the website. I look forward to you visiting again! Have a wonderful day!

Re: Coast Guard ship during World War II

The ship in question was the troop ship USS Admiral H. T. Mayo, AP-125. I was a crew member of that ship at the same time as Victor Mature. We sailed from San Pedro, CA through the Panama Canal and arrived at Le Havre, France on 12 June, 1945. We picked up almost 5000 former German prisoners of war and brought them home to Boston, Massachusetts, arriving there on 21 June, 1945.
