Welcome Aboard!

I  remember the diversity of the crew and officers of the USS Hermitage. I  learned what unity meant. How people from all parts of America came together and regardless of race or rating learned to help each other.  It was amazing to see these sailors  come together outside of the vessel environment also. This was the beginning of me becoming part of the  Hermitage brotherhood. This experience transcended into my civilian life.  I will never forget my experience on board the USS Hermitage and  the comradeship that created brothers from another mother.

----Nelson Rolon, MM, circa 1970.

I was on the Hermitage  about  1973.  I started on the deck crew,  but pretty quickly moved to work in  sick bay to strike as a hospital corpsman.  I went to HM School in 1974 and never went back.  I don't remember many names.  My HMC was Chief Phelps.   alfredpolaino@att.net

I was  disappointed  when the Mighty Herm was sold to Brazil.  But  more so to hear that she was sunk in 2021.  hoshawbill@gmail.com
