Here are some of the comments received for the book: George, Mine arrived today It is marvelous, a wonderful work you can be proud of assembling and authoring.

I'm very much looking to reading it from cover to cover.

I intend to tell the Naval Historical Foundation about it, because it will add to their archives of USS JOHNSTON.

Well done, shipmate.

Mike Mc Caffree, Rear Admiral U.

Retired George, I received the book yesterday - it's wonderful.

Take care, Al Myers Hello George, Received My copy and want to thank you for doing this job.

Excellent .

I am recalling so many events.

Sorry I did not respond to your call for war stories from the USS Johnston.

Great luck with it.

Bob O'Dell RM3, USS Johnston DD821, 1952-1955 Hi George, Linda and I had an opportunity to peruse the book and it was obvious that you devoted many hours in development and publishing.

We both enjoyed the content immensely and will spend many hours in reading the book.

You did a terrific job; well done.

Regards, Captain John Mingo George, Got the books yesterday and WHAT A BOOK Thank you so much for your hard work on the book.
