GOD BLESS AMERICA
ATTENTION SHIPMATES!!!!!!!

Sad news to share with you the crew of the USS Blandy DD-943. On July 11, 2008 our shipmate Captain Peter A. Huchthausen, U.S. Navy (Ret.), author and historian, lately of Kennebunk and Frye Island, died at his B&B in Amfreville, France. He was 69. Peter authored the book "October Fury" which brought the story of our involvement in the Cuban Missile Crisis to the world.

Please visit the Notice for Captain Peter A. Huchthausen U.S. Navy (Ret.).
