USS Turner Joy DD951

I served aboard the USS Turner Joy DD951 from 1972-1973 during the end of the Viet Nam conflict (as it was politically termed).  I started as a deck hand (boatswain’s mate) and soon transferred to the engine room as a machinist mate. I stood throttle as shown in the photo above.
