    My brother, Darold Wolt, was also a fireman on the USS Calhoun. I wonder if Grover Glymph and he were friends. Darold died in Appleton, Wis.

    A DD was a pretty small ship. I was on a DDG with about 330 sailors on board and I had at least a nickname for everyone on board, so I'm sure they at least had a passing acquaintance.

    My uncle was the Water Tender on the Calhoun. Does anyone have any crew pictures?
