"Yay! Thanks for starting an Alabama page!"
"My dad was at Norfolk August 8, 1943."
"I would love to go to one of those. I don't think my dad ever did. I think when he was done, he was DONE. Thanks for the post!"
"Gosh thank you for caring! I'm pretty sure he said Annie Lykes. I guess I'm going to have to contact the Navy and ask for his records. Is that an invasion of a person's privacy?"
"I'm trying to find the ship, too... not having much luck. Could it be the USS Anne Arundel? Wikipedia has quite an extensive listing."

Hello. This page was created to honor my dad who served in WWII. He never liked to talk about his time in the Navy so I didn't ask a lot of questions. I grew up living with my mother and step-father so I never knew my real dad as well as I should…

I'm Bill Karr. My son Doug created this site and I help him out a bit. We hope that you enjoy it.
The following message is from Doug:
1. Be sure to upload an image of yourself. You can add your image on your Footlocker.
2. Click the Commands tab and search for your commands so that you can join them and add them to your page! This is how other shipmates will find you.
3. Invite all your shipmates!
4. Don't hesitate to add an event or a reunion to the Events tab!
5. We've also started Commands for each State. Be sure to join or add your own state!
I give out gifts often for those folks who participate on Navy Vets! Be sure to start up a blog post or two and tell us all about your time in the Navy!
Thanks,
Doug
