My thanks to: The Destroyer Escort Sailors Association who awarded this banner. To Charles R. "Dick" Casper, who nominated our site for the award. And many thanks also to the Whitehurst veterans of WWII, Korean War, Post Korean Era, and the Viet Nam War Era, who have contributed the ideas, articles and photos which tell just some of the history and lore of this gallant ship.

A Plea from your Yeoman
Every year when we send out invitations to the reunion, several are
returned because the man has moved. If we are lucky there is a
forwarding address sticker on the envelope. Too often there is not
one. So please update your Yeoman when you move, change e-addresses,
and your phone numbers. You never know when an old friend may want to
get in touch with you.
P.S. I do not share your data with anyone except
shipmates and their families. I prefer to put YOU in touch with the
requestor rather than give out your contact numbers.
