Ladies Auxiliary

While some may consider it unlucky to have a woman aboard ship, the U.S.S. Little Rock Association feels just the opposite when it comes to having women as part of our group. In fact, the ladies of the Association have their own group within the organization.

Mystery Photo #22

Mystery Photo #22

A reader of our website contacted us (probably because of our extensive web data pertaining to the Sixth Fleet) and sent us the above picture along with the following inquiry: 

"Hello.

I’m wondering if you could help me identify the significance or historical connection of a medal, the remains of which I found at a Pearl Harbor construction site back in 1971. I found it in freshly dug dirt as I was crossing the naval base from my ship, the USS Midway (CVA-41).

Thanks for any help you can provide".

Charles Paige    (Received from Mr. Paige on 20 Sept 2009)

If you know something about this medallion/coin, shoot us an e-mail via the "Mystery Photo #22" link on the Messages, News and Bulletin Board or e-mail the webmaster.
