Neat site, but found two errors (that I know of):
My first ship USS Myles C Fox, (DD 829) listed as DE-546 with callsign NTEN
Actually callsign was NAZI. (how about THAT call?) :-)
A sister ship of DesRon 8 (Destroyer Squadron 8), USS Fiske (DD-842) is
listed as DE-143.
One fault of the site is that it does not list the ships that had no name,
but only the hull number... USS LST325 being a prime example (NWVC). Out of
1051 WW2 LSTs, COUNTY names were affixed only after WW2 and only
after hull numbers
800 or so...
But it's a nice list, anyway.
