Wow Zuma, 8 years to sea! Your dad was SALTY! Thankyou for sharing those pics. What were his ships?

Zuma:
Sleek
He had port of call at several destinations near home or
my older brother and I would have never been born.
His last active duty ride was on the Matoponi.
Circumnavigating the globe and more. I am not sure if
he was aboard the same ship when his  sister ship was sunk in the Atlantic.
That incident is documented in the book "Q boats VS U-boats."
He and the United States Navy were attached at the hip.
