I checked out the website and learned a lot I did not know, such as her final resting place off Kauai. I was surprised at the memories that came back while watching those video clips as she started to list and sink.
I left as OPS Officer in October 1964 so our tours may have had some overlap. I had heard that she was
decommissioned but I just assumed she had been scrapped. I kind of like the idea that she is still in the Pacific, even if it is on the bottom.

[ Notes from Glen Balzer to Dan Withers]
Tom arrived on Stoddard as Electronics Materiel Officer in 1962, and then moved through the functions of Combat Information Center Officer, Communications Officer and ultimately Operations Officer at the time of his departure in 1966. He now heads up the Nimitz Marine Facility, part of the University of California at San Diego.
After departing Stoddard in 1966, he went to grad school at Monterey. He remembers ETMC Blaine E. Grady, who neither of us can find today. He told me that Steve Small, who was OI Division Officer in 1964 and 1965 was originally from the San Francisco Bay Area.

[ Email received 8-26-00]
I was Supply Officer of the Stoddard from February of '61 until October of
'62 - 1 and a half cruises, including the Laos crisis in '61 and early Nam
unpleasantness in '62. Captain Jay J. Vermilya was out XO early in my
tour, and I happily made contact with him on my first visit to San Diego in 38
years -- he told me about the reunions.
Sorry that I can't get to Jacksonville this year, but I'd like to become a
member and be listed on your site. It would be great to reconnect with people
I remember fondly, like Captain Collier, Freeman Neish, and the two chiefs who
kept me out of trouble, Buck and Bentley.
[ Biography received 09-04-00 ]
Graduated Harvard (Regular NROTC) June '60; Supply Corps School in Athens,
GA until January '61. Boarded the Stoddard in Subic Bay in February '62 and
took over as Supply Officer in what seemed like hours (my predecessor couldn't
get off her fast enough!).
We were soon in the Gulf of Siam in the middle of the Laos crisis (4 hours
to get underway, supply replenishment for the next morning scrapped, saved
from chaos by great PO's like Bentley and Buck). Back to stateside (June?),
and into drydock in Long Beach. Down to San Diego that Fall, and back to
Westpac in January '62 for the early phases of our active involvement in the
SE Asia mess.
Returned to San Diego in June/July (?) '62, and was assigned for shore duty
to the 3rd Naval District in New York much against my will -- I loved San
Diego, and might have stayed Regular Navy and done at least 20 had BuPers
relented. They didn't (surprise), and I ultimately left active duty at the end
of October '63.
Since that time I've been in the radio business as a DJ, Account Executive
at ABC, and for the last 30 years the Creative Director and President of my
own radio commercial/music production/sound design/casting company, No Soap
Productions. I have 3 kids (30/16/14) and a wonderful wife of 20 years who is
the real brains of the company, and the love of my life.
My memories of DD566 are always tempered by a chuckle, and a profound
respect for the professionals of the Navy, both enlisted and commissioned.
That so much responsibility was give to so many inexperienced young adults is
a tribute to the confidence and guidance of the senior officers, as well as
the Chiefs, PO's, and members of the crew. Captain Vermilya (who was my XO
when I came aboard) made me aware of this association when I returned to San
Diego in August 2000 after 38 years. I hope to hear from them before long.

After serving on the Stoddard during WW 2 I left the ship in Tokyo bay for
leave and reassignment to shore duty. I got back to the states on the 5th of
Oct. and was married on the 13th of Oct. Bill Bausell BMle and his wife stood
up with us. Spent the rest of my enlistment on the east coast at different
stations (1.5 years). We later moved to New York and I went into the dental
lab business. We later moved back to Missouri to be close to my father-in-law
who was a dentist, in Richland. After my father-in-law passed away, I took a
job with the regional dental activity in St Louis.
My wife and I both retired she in 1977 and I in 1978. After nine years of
poor health resulting from a stroke my wife passed away on Dec. 28, 1989. We
had 45 years together and I sure miss her. Since then my health has taken a
turn for the worst, arthritis, and now they have found a malignant cancer on
my prostate gland. I'm on radiation treatment for six weeks, which will end
the last of August. I'm a life member of the Elk's Club #9 BPOE. In 1965 I
served as the exalted ruler, and in 1969-70 I was the district deputy grand
exalted ruler. From 1970-72 I served 2 terms as dep. grand exalted ruler and
then had to back off and relax.

U.S.S. Stoddard Alumni:
I'm writing to you on this Veterans Day regarding my father who was part
of your alumni.
After his service to the United States ended he married and moved to
Albany, NY with my mother Evelyn Mae (Hine) Barnes.
My parents had six children. Cynthia A.Hughes Halley, Philip G.(Jr)
Barnes, Douglas E. Barnes, Marjorie J. Blakeslee, Charles I. Barnes, and
Paul D. Barnes.
They were married until the untimely death of my mother on February 9th,
1999.
They were also the proud grandparents to Mark, Amy, and Megan Hughes;
Ashley and Kimberly Blakeslee, Carline and Bryon Barnes, Anthony and
Michaela Barnes.
My father was fortunate to have two loves in his life the second Beulah
Tuckett. They were just starting on their journey together when my dad was
diagnosed with lung cancer and fought the most courageous battle yet, lung
cancer. He succumbed to this nasty disease this year on February 6, 2004.
My father was very proud of the Navy and kept an 11 x 14 picture of his
ship hung on the wall as a reminder. Because of his devotion to his
military career we too where presented the American Flag in his honor. I
have found some of the pictures and thought you would like them for your
collection.
Sincerely,
Cynthia A. Halley -

then for the Eau Claire County Highway Department, as well as for a steel

I married my wife Shirley on September 8, 1956. We have two sons, two
daughters, two granddaughters, three grandsons and one step grandson. Shirley
and I retired in April 1996 and we enjoy spending time with our family, the
grandchildren's sport events, as well as their school activities. We also
enjoy traveling. At one time, Shirley and I had a band, played old time music;
we still enjoy old time music and dancing.
I am active in the American Legion, of which I am a life member. I am also
