One of the last Survivors from the USAS Expedition

Yesterday, I reconnected with Anthony Wayne, a seaman from the USS Bear.  I visited him on Veteran's day, 2010.  He has vivid memories of the expedition.  I am speaking with him more frequently to get his details.
Here are some articles about his story.  Tony remembers my father as a very nice man, who served the crew well from the galley.
