I served during the Korean Conflict on the U.S.S. Mc Cord D.D.534. My Dad Murl Chafin worked in the Consolidated Shipyard during the building of the Orleck and probably did the electrical wiring on her.

I was aboard the Orleck when it was sent to Korea in 1952 or thereabouts. Capt. Yates was our skipper. We destroyed two communist supply trains on the beach at night using our moving target radar. I have a number of photos I took during our time at sea.

I am the daughter of Lonnie Borrell. I just wanted to let you know that I still have the flag from the Orleck when it was retired. I treasure it more every year. I am not sure the years my Dad was on that ship. Thank you for keeping this memory alive for so many. God Bless..

I have a lot of good memories of the time I spent on the Orleck,even when I was sea sick they didn't call them tin cans for nothing!
I would like to become a member of the USS ORLECK Association if I could.
