My father was Vernon C Nordin -Any California survivors or crew members know him?
Permalink Closed


My dad, Vern Nordin, was a crew member of Indianapolis relieved of duty just prior to final voyage and discharged in 1946.  He was the ship machinist down below keeping all the equipment in working order for sailing.  I'm looking for other sailors out there who knew him and possibly have some good stories.  My dad passed away yesterday and we are trying to arrange a service at sea.  It will be at least a couple weeks just to get his cremains released to us and maybe a bit longer to get that service at sea outside the SF Golden Gate.

I attached a picture of him in his "whites". If you remember him, please post.  Thanks!
