I have been to several sites regarding the heroic efforts all the servicemen

after. Being an Underhill myself this has drummed up some curiousity.
If anyone has any information on this matter I would greatly appreciate
it.
Thank-You, Kelly

from Hinesville, Georgia formerly from West Chester, Ohio
I have visited this site many times. It is in a way for me, a special
rememberance to my dad, Harold R. DeAtley, who was a surviver of the U.S.S.
Underhill. Daddy died in 1985, and I still miss him. This wonderful
web site is such a heart warming tribute to ALL the men on board this
ship, and yet it is so very special to me, because it lets me sit back
and remember how my dad would occasionally start telling his tales of
life on board ship. I guess you could say, in a special sort of way it
helps keep my dad alive in some small way.
I enjoy coming back
every now and again just to see all the new things you have added, and
learn even more about this ship and the men that served on board.
Thanks
once again for such a WONDERFUL web site.

I have just discoved the web page for the Underhill. It is fantastic!
I am the son of Lt. Floyd Powell Carrington who was killed when the Underhill
went down 24-7-45. I was 2 years old when that happened and do not remember
ever seeing my father. My mother, Sue, has told me a great deal about
him and his service on the Underhill. She is still living in Parsons,
TN and is doing well. She never remarried and I am their only child.
I would love to hear from some of the survivors that may remember my
father. I am told that he was a lot of fun to be around. It would be
incredible to learn more about him from some of his shipmates
It is
wonderful that some many people remember the men of the Underhill and
honor them with this web page.

He

work that started the reunions again in the 80's and his help in creating
the website along with Jay. He will be in our hearts for a long time.
Maybe he and my Dad are having a conversation on the fantail!

and for youngsters in school who are learning "Freedom Isn't Free," war
isn't a game, American History, and who they owe for the good life they
enjoy by such studies. Our undying gratitude! And warmest regards to

This is to give a little more detail on Peggy's note dated April 17.
Georgia Newcomb, widow of LCDR Robert M. Newcomb, died peacefully in her
sleep on April 15, 2002, at age 105. My wife (her oldest granddaughter)
and I had visited her a few days earlier and had a pleasant time together.
She thought highly of the men of the Underhill and was pleased that you
remembered her. Although not immune to the effects of advanced age on
her vision and hearing, she was blessed to avoid chronic debilitating
illness. According to her wishes her body was cremated and the ashes interred
at Nut Plains Cemetery in Guilford, Connecticut. Yesterday (May 5, 2002)
we had a graveside memorial service attended by many family and friends,
including a great-great-granddaughter. We rejoice in her memory and are
glad to have known her.

This is for Beth Tracy. For those of you
that watch JAG, Beth Tracy
was the executive
assistant to Don Bellisario. It was through
her
efforts that the information about the
Underhill was read. Executives
are "swamped",
in her words with this material. The Underhills
story
was one of many that are similar because of battle
action, but special
to us because we lost many
who were dear to us. Don Bellisario and
Beth Tracy
saw something special in us... hopefully someday
the
Underhill's read story will be told . Thank you

To all our Underhill family: I'm pleased to report that I just left
John Maki at the hospital and he's doing fine and anxious to get home!
Doctor says he'll be able to run the Zamboni again soon. Surgery went
great. (He says he's STILL the best damn fireman in the Navy!)
Thanks
to all for your kind wishes.
Mickey Wagner (John's taxi driver
to the reunions!)

Just a note to let all our Underhill friends know that John Maki, Underhill
survivor and long-time reunion attendee, suffered a minor heart attack
on Saturday, August 4th, 2001. I'm very glad to report that John is doing
good and is scheduled to undergo a quadruple bypass Tuesday the 7th.
He is at St. Vincent Hospital at 232 West 25 Street, Erie, PA 16544
814-452-5800 for patient room information. I know John would love to
hear from his buddies. Any e-mails we receive will be greatly appreciated
and forwarded to him as soon as possible. Take care all. See you next
year! Mickey Wagner

http://www.geocities.com/randikay/ShavingKit.html
My name is Randi, I am the RN at Morningside Assisted Living in Sumter,
South Carolina. I became aware
of the Underhill through one of our
Residents and crew member, LC Patterson. Mr. Patterson does not have email
yet
, but he is considering getting a computer in his room, so he
can get online himself. I would be happy, until that time, to
print
any email others might like to write to Mr. P.
The homepage listed
is not really a homepage, but just a beautiful poem written by Doug Patterson,
the son of an Underhill
crew member, LC Patterson.
I thought
that
it deserved it's own place, and gave it that special place.
I saw
to it that our local newspaper, the Item, wrote a story about the Special
Navy Citation, and am putting a link to
that also for others to read.
http://www.theitem.com/CityDesk/010528c_news.html
Mr Patterson
has been looking for addresses of any crew members, especially Ed M.
Hancock and Rodger Crum.
Rodger, thanks so much for this site
for others to learn from!

Hi All,
I signed this way back in Aug. of 98, man how time flies!!
I have resigned to give my updated e-mail address and to see if anyone
knows how to get hold of TOMKOWIAK, FLORIAN J.
I saw his name on
the survivors list and remembered it immediately. Daddy (Harold R. DeAtley)
used to mention this man every now and again. Would just like to tell
him, he had been remembered very fondly, by my dad.
The homepage
address I put there is a link to a Spades team home page I made for my
spades team. It is just a fun thing I did and thought I would share it
with you all. It is quite lengthy 12 pages and takes a while to go through
but is a fun site too.
Back to this site, as I have said so
many times before this is the ONLY place I have been able to find USS
Underhill info and Thanks so very much to EVERONE that has participated
in making it so.

On the wall above where he sat in our home town church, there is a plaque
for Joseph E. Ott, who went down with the Underhill. I looked at it again
the other day at church and decided I'd like to know more about this sad
day, so I came to my computer. I usually don't have much luck when I
try to look something up and was surprised and pleased at what I found.
Keep up the good work and I will return again. Joe was single and had
two sisters and 3 nephews. I was hoping I would find somebody from his
family had been looking for more information on the USS Underhill.

Oh yes, about 2 weeks ago

Hi again Rodger and Gang! My oldest son, Timothy, (grandson of John

and enlisting in the Navy! I am so proud! He is also an Underhill history
buff, and has written several school papers and talked about the Underhill.
He was very excited about the Underhill and JAG. The odd thing is this--the
date of October 17 (the airdate) is the 10th anniversary of my dad's death...almost
like he had something to do with the show!
I hope all of you are
doing fine, and each and everyone is in my prayers!

Great resource and information center for everyone with ties to the
Underhill and related navy concerns. My father was Stanley Dace and a
chief aboard the Underhill. I am new to the internet and do not yet know
the exact e-mail address to give. However you can reach me at 99 wildwood
terrace Sullivan, Missouri 63080. It was hard for my father to tell what
happened the day the Underhill was sunk. We did not know much until a
few years before he died. We never heard him complain I suppose he was
grateful to see America again and live a normal life. We do know that
the Underhill was special to him and its crew. I have been in contact
with my representatives in Congress to look into a possible citation for
the ship's crew for honor under fire. Senator Ashcroft has been successful
in getting awards for Joe Manory and Stanley Dace. If anyone remembers
hearing 55 years ago about a possible ship's citation please let us know.

I truly enjoyed learning about the USS Underhill. My uncle, Baxter
Wayne Garrett, was killed that day on
24 July 45. It was great finally
learning about what happened, as almost all my kin on my uncle's side
has
passed and I had no real way to learn about his navy life and
those who perished with him. Thank you for the
site, and I would
enjoy any e-mail from other family members, especially any of the survivors
of that day that
may have know him.

Do you have any letters written by you or your family during the time
you or they served in World War II? If so, I need your help!
I
am researching a book entitled World War II Letters edited by Walter Cronkite,
which is a collection of letters from servicemen and women to their friends,
families, or sweethearts back home. This book is aimed at capturing the
war as seen through the eyes of participants around the world. It will
also depict the daily life of WWII soldiers. World War II Letters will
have letters from soldiers from every country involved in the Second World
War. WWII Letters will be published by Knopf next year.
I would
love to publish letters written by servicemen and women from all over
the world in the book and hope that you will take this chance to commemorate
an important time in world history.
Please note that at this
time we are not looking for photos, other war memorabilia, or letters
written from the home front to servicemen and women, but if the publisher
decides later that it is something they want to include, I will be sure
to be in touch with you again.
Also, please note that I am looking
for letters that have not been previously published in any form. I must
have either the letter writers permission or someone who is able to give
permission to reprint the letter(s) in Mr. Cronkites collection. (If
the excerpt/letter is selected to be included in the book, a permission
letter will be sent at a later date.) Please try to include the letter
writers rank, circumstances surrounding the time the letter was written,
details of soldiers tour of duty, etc.basically, any additional information
that would add to the letter. Also, please include your complete contact
information so that I can stay in touch and let you know the progress
of the book. If the letter is not written in English and you can translate
it, that would be wonderful; if not, we will get a translation done.
Lastly, please send only legible, photocopied letters before the end of
July, which is our deadline.
If you have any questions about
this book, I would be happy to answer them. (E-mail is the best way to
reach me, and my address is tquinn@adlerbooks.com.)
I really
appreciate your help. Without your support, this book would not be possible.
I
may be contacted at the following address:

I am the grandson of CBM Stanley W. Dace, and Ruth Dace. I was recently
reading an article in the magazine Men's Journal
about the sinking
of the U.S.S. Indianapolis and it mentioned the Underhill and it's sinking.
I was so excited I asked the person
who cuts my hair, which is where
I was looking at the magazine, to seeif she could find it. She couldn't
find that copy of it, but she got
6 brand new copies of it for everyone
in the family. Just thought everyone would like to know that the Underhill
made into a
magazine.

my father, levi c. patterson was wounded (broken shoulder) in 1945 while
serving aboard the uss underhill. he is 87 years old and living at morningside
home here in sumter, south carolina. i have been told of the underhill
all my life and tomorrow being father's day, i have printed this entire
site for him. just last week he sent a post card to a guy that lost a
leg on the underhill. the address was 55 years old but this friend of
his still lived there in his mother's house !! my dad received a phone
call from him and i can remember my father telling me, that this brave
man wounded, had to free himself with his pochet knife. the "USS UNDERHILL"
has always been on my mind and although i was only two years old in 1945
i can still feel the experience. my father is still the major factor of
our family and even today when i go deep sea fishing i'm on the "lookout"
for jap subs...........doug patterson

How did you find us: "OTHER"? Oh, YES! We were there, together, that
fateful night--it has taken fifty years of searching, and the computer,
to get in touch with those I had felt perished in my place, and the families
of those who did not survive. Were your ears itching yesterday--isn't
that supposed to mean someone was talking about you? I was! In the sermon
at the Daytona Beach Church of Christ, the congregation heard, some heard
again, about looking over with binoculars, waving, at the young men waving
to us from the Underhill, as they went back to engage the mother sub:
those faces that will forever be in my memory, my dreams, my beyond-spoken
gratitude. We are inseperatably clinked for all eternity!
For
others, similarly linked to the Underhill, for whom Memorial Day is spelled,
in large part, UNDERHILL, I send greetings as well to my shipmates on
the LST 647--THE JACKPOT! Looking through the log shared with me by Jack
Thornberry, shared by me with the Navy Memorial, I see that on Memorial
Day in 1945, we arrived back at I.E. Shima. We first hit the beach there
April 16th, 1945. Scenes of action on the TV today brings back of lot
of memories. I just want to say "Hello," to any of you who are still
around. I drove one of the L.C.V.P.s, also was Acting Chaplain. I am
a minister for the Daytona Beach Church of Christ, at Daytona Beach, Florida.
I hope things are going well with you, and if you are down my way, give
me a call, and how about an email contact now?
Is there anyone
out here who was evacuated from the beach of I.E. Shima to the hospital
ship HOPE? We transported injured who had just had sulfa powder poured
in their wounds, and morphine, and took them to the hospital ship: I
never had the first word of complaint that we had hit a wave too hard,
or were going too fast. I have wished for information on what had happened
next for each of those men. Anyhone know?

was in a catbird seat to observe the run by Underhill and her destruction

vessel to receive survivors and get them to Guian, Samar in the Philippines.
The rest of the convoy went on to Layte.

I love to visit your site because I can see the excellent picture of
the Underhill. I posted a message about my father's ship a few weeks ago,
USS Earl V. Johnson, DE-702 (Buckley class), which also encountered the
kaitens of I-53 on August 4, 1945. Seeing the Underhill's picture gives
me a good feeling because of course it looks just like my father's ship.
I know half of your men made the supreme sacrifice and it could have been
my father's ship as well. For this reason, my father and I talk about
and think about the Underhill often. Today, my father just returned from
Boston, where an 80 year old shipmate just got married, which just goes
to show: Old sailors never die!

I found your web site while looking for a picture of the USS Underhill
for my grandson, Brendon Holland.
Brendon's preschool has been learning
about one letter of the alphabet each week, and next week is 'U' week.
My wife and I felt that a picture of the Underhill would be appropriate,
since my wife (Mary Newcomb
Holland) is a granddaughter (and Brendon
is therefore a great-great-grandson) of LCDR Robert Newcomb.
In case
you are interested, LCDR Newcomb's widow, Georgia Newcomb, is alive and
reasonably well at the
age of 103. She lives at a nursing home in
nearby Madison, CT, where my wife and I visit her almost every

My father's ship made contact with I-53 on August 4,1945. His ship,
USS Earl V Johnson DE-702(also a Buckley class DE)depth charged I-53.
I-53, suffering minor damage launched a kaiten at DE-702, making two passes
before exploding some distance away. This contact occurred off Okinawa.
My father and his shipmates only learned that this torpedo attack involved
a kaiten(manned torpedo) in 1995, when contacts and correspondences were
made with surviving crew members of I-53 in Japan. My father remembers
seeing the Underhill in port at some point during the war. I would like
to thank those gallant sailors of the Underhill, alive and dead, who kept
I-53 off that convoy that day, and who make me proud to be an American.
I salute you all. God Bless!!

from Ambridge, PA now Rockledge, FL
My uncle, Michael Sudik, Jr. (not Sudick), was stationed on the Underhill.
On that fateful day, our understanding is that he switched work shifts
with a buddy and ended up being in the part of the ship that blew up and
he did not survive. If anyone remembers Uncle Mike, I would appreciate
hearing from you. One of his sisters, Olga, my Mom, now 81, has never
gotten over his death. They were very close! My husband and I have searched
for Underhill info during the years, but this is the most informative
site yet. Thank you.

from Groton conn.
My father is a survivor of the USS Underhill. He is Donald J. Kruse
MM2C. Until you had the first reunion dad never spoke very much about
the final day of the Underhill. The opportunity that all the survivors
now have to visit with each other has got to bring alot of joy to each
and every one of the men. I know my father looks forward to each visit.
Now I have to get him a web tv hook up. If any one would like to correspond
with my father or I, please do so.I would love to hear from other sons
and daughters of the Underhill. This web site is a great opportunity for
the families and friends of the Underhill.
IN REGARD

I am Chief Stanley Dace's sister. Stan talked with me a great deal
about the Underhill. I asked him a few month before he died what he was
thinking when the ship was being sunk, he told me "Elaine, yes, I was
scared but that is when your training takes over and you don't have time
to think or be afraid". He was a true Navy man from the day he enlisted
until the day he died. Stan will always stand 12 feet tall in my mind,
he knew what hell war was and he also knew how to be a human thinking
person. I miss him so very much. He wouldn't miss the Reunion if at
all possible expense wise or job wise. He took one of my other sailor
brothers with him to the reunion one year. He loved all you guys on that
ship.

Hi Rodger and Jay!
As the daughter of a Underhill survivor(John
Houglin), I visit the website often. Thanks so much for keeping the site
up and running. I often stop by and it makes me feel close to dad, who
passed away in 1990. The new areas always provide me with information
that I would never had known had it not been for you.
My son
has been corresponding with one of the survivors of the Underhill, and
he feels a real connection with the man, who can provide him with a glimpse
of his Paw-Paws past.
Thanks so much--
