Destroyer Escort April 1943 question
Posted by: gbryan ()

Hoping someone can help me with this...I'm trying to verify the name of the Destroyer Escort ship my father served on from April 1 thru May 26, 1943.

On this ship, travelling from the North Atlantic to the Mediterrean, he journaled about witnessing the sinking of the Sidi-Bel-Abbes on Apr 20, 1943. Through other info in his journal of the ships armament and the Apr 1, 1943 commissioned date I've narrowed it down to the USS Reuben James(ii) (DE 153). To be sure, is there a way that I can get the list of men serving on this ship at that time?

Appreciate any advice.

Thanks
