I don't know the height up there but during the 8th deployment West Pac Cruise, we went through a Typhoon which a wave covered the ship and actually ripped the gears below this surface radar completely off. Got us a week in Subic Bay, wooo weeee. Ha! If you look at the picture you will find the AN/SPS 70 which is the air search radar, just above it is the AN/SPS 10 which is the surface search radar.

I hope someday to visit her again. I lived on her from Feb. of 71 to March of 73. I was a supervisor in CIC during her eight deployment and I really think it was something to experience. I hope she is taken good care of. This is good. I hope someday to visit her again. I lived on her from Feb. of 71 to March of 73.

I found some names of people I knew that were aboard the Edson in 1960-1963 but so far sending e-mails produced nothing they came back undeliverable. Makes me sad I really would like to see or hear from some of my shipmates. Gus Nunez was one, Santiago Trujillo was another? I really do like your site and enjoyed reading the blogs.
