I am looking for a relative of Ruth Reynolds, I have her keel laying plaque from this event in 1942. I acquired a storage unit in San Diego, California and her plaque was in a box that I recently went through. Please leave a comment below I will check back in a few weeks.
Navy Medicine said:
Her married name is Forsythe and she retired in the reserves as a LCDR in November 1956. In 1957, she was living in Chula Vista, CA. A quick search on the internet did not reveal an obituary for her. If you wish to donate the plaque to the Navy, check this website -https://www.history.navy.mil/

Thank you for your interest in Navy Medicine.

Hi!

I would like to include this photo in my ""That's my grandma!" Found Family on Flickr Commons" Data Lifeboat. A Data Lifeboat is an archival format for Flickr photos.

Would that be OK with you?
Thanks!

This is a photo of the old round house. It is long since been torn down. All that remans is the turn table.

Excellent view of the main erecting floor and overhead traveling crane inside the 40th street shops- even though Metra still uses 40th Street for servicing locos, this shop has been demolished.
