Adventure, Adversity and Anecdotes
on the
Charles J. Badger (DD-657)
By
John
A. Pritzlaff
(125 pages, 72 photos)
Reviewer: Dr. V. H.
Schumacher
Overall Rating: Two
Stars: Some readers would enjoy
it but many would not.
Although the book would have benefited from the services
of a skilled editor, the author provides an interesting look backward on his
life from new ensign to Lt. j.g. while aboard DD-657. Readers will find
reproductions of photographs taken during the cruises and accounts of the
author's experiences during trips to England, Japan and Korea. many of them
paralleled those of this reviewer. Others who served on our beloved Fletchers
during this period may also enjoy this trip to memory land.
