TEd, like my now deseased father in law, he must have had special skills. Frank, was about to drafted, (when he was a month short of 40), and desided to enlist, so as to have some control.
he was an engineer, and joined the coast guard, was stationed in NY, but spent most of the war in the north atlantic, since the coast guard provided support to shipping convoys. but when he was in port, he was on governers island, in NY harbor. (he died just a year or so ago, aged 97)
