Recollections of the Estes

My father Robert F. Dorton Jr. served on the Estes during WW II as Lt.Jg. under the command of Admiral Blandy. I have many memory's of dads sea stories. being mesmorized by his emotions and feeling the war come to life. He loved sailing aboard her. I still have his uniform and navy winter coat. Please add dad to your roster, he passed in 1983. Served from 1943-45. Thank you.
