Julian Ira Fowler, WWII, USS Donaldson Autograph Book NAVY





Julian Ira Fowler


To honor my daddy and all those sailors that served with him aboard the USS Donaldson


My daddy was a gunnars mate aboard the USS Donaldson during WWII.

What I have learned through research and some kind relatives of shipmates is that this destroyer escort was spared as it encountered one of the worst typhoons in maritime history.  Halsey's Typhoon or better known as Typhoon Cobra.


I have scanned his autograph book in hopes that some of the sons, daughters, grandchildren, or other relatives might have pictures of their kinfolk when they served with daddy.  PLEASE post the pictures here.  If you have a link to sites or would share this on discussion boards so perhaps we can reach some of these people or their relatives.

I hope to hear from some sailors or their relatives.






















































 This is the only picture that was in the album of shipmates. The one on the left had no name anywhere.  The one on the right is obviously Jasper and his cousin.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE !!!!
