PHOTO GALLERY THREE: 

OFFICERS AND ENLISTED MEN 

Most of the images in this gallery are scans of photographs made available by ERIE crew members Louis Hyde (Machinist Mate 1st Class), Donald Leetch (Radioman 3rd Class) and Joseph Osenkowski (Baker 2nd Class).  The photo of Francis J. Shema (Pharmacist Mate 1st Class) was donated by his son, Christopher.  Most of the photos were taken using small personal cameras, so the quality is not the best.

Unfortunately, with the passage of more than 60 years, it is difficult to assign names to faces.  Thus, persons visible in many of these photos are unnamed. If you can positively identify any of these persons (or wish to correct any crew member that has been mis-identified), please contact the webmaster.
