Initially I was sent to Green Cove Springs FL (Mothball Fleet)- shortly afterward that base was closed and many of us were sent to the Philadelphia shipyard. I am now sure that it was the USS Chandeleur (AV-10) that was our living quarters during that time which I clearly remember being a sea plane tender. I arrived at Philadelphia as a fireman and left as a Draftsman Illustrator 3rd Class. From the Mothball Fleet, I was then transferred to the USS Taconic (AGC-17) which was a Flag Ship for the Amphibious force..." [22MAY2003]
