John C. Lewis 1943-1945 - RM-2 - Submitted 5/17/08

I am John C. Lewis and live in Cape Coral Florida. I am now 94 years old and hope to be around a bit longer. I served on the Estes from 43-45 and was a 2nd class radio operator at Battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa attached to air support. My son in law obtained and sent me the information enabling me to contact you. I may be the only living survivor of the radio gang. I do remember very few names of the crew. Do you know of any radio man still alive. Please check on my radio gang.

I could have made some of the reunions but not now sorry to say. I also am ham radio operator and get on radio 20 meter 198.50 every morning but only for rest of month.
