Quote: Hi, my name is Kelly Britton, my uncle, Donald Britton served on the USS Preston in the '50s. On March 17, 1956, he died with 3 other seaman trying to save someone who fell overboard off of Rhode Island during a blizzard. I never got to meet my uncle but many of family members to this day still talk about him and the good ol' days. I was wondering if you can steer me in the right direction on where I can find pictures of him/the crew or anything. May some of the members have pictures? Any help would be appreciated and if you can't thank you for your time.
I can be reached at CHANGINGX@AOL.COM. | | | Golfers Attention: The Admiral is putting together a golfing experience for all you duffers and experts alike!
