Sample Book Insights:
#1 On January 20, 1944, three months before the
commissioning ceremony that would make it a US Navy warship, the hull of DE-413, its prow festively draped in red, white, and blue bunting, slid off the ways at the Brown Shipbuilding Company in Houston and entered the Houston Ship Channel with a roaring sidelong splash.
#2 Rohde had skills the Navy valued. He was a proficient typist and had learned Morse code in radio club at Curtis High School. He was eventually assigned to the Navy Training School in Boston, where radiomen were trained.
#3 The genius of the Navy’s personnel system was that it sorted young men by their talents, trained them for specialized duties, and sent them to places where their knowledge was most needed.
#4 The men of the Roberts were not homesick at all. They were excited about what was in store for them in the Pacific.
