I have a picture of the USS Mosley DE-321 , an Edsall class DE. You have the ship listed but no picture.

Request you give credit to Dori Bolen in honor of her father: Grover Clinton Pettigrew who was a Gunnersmate on the Mosley during WWII. Mr Pettigrew passed away in summer of 1999.

Please let me know when the picture is posted so I can let Dori Bolen know.

Thank you,

Dick Willard, Yeoman
