Talk:USS Munising (PC-1228)/@comment-67.20.18.176-20170701200711

I, Harold Raines, 275 45 58, served aboard the PC 1228 as a signalman 1st class for some 16 months during which time we patrolled the south pacific. Our home base was in Esparito Santos in the Hebrides Islands. On one occasion we towed a New Zeland ship to Aukland. We visited many of the south pacific islands to re-supply and fuel. The ship was in constant patrol in the south seas seeking enemy submarines. It was built to ram a sub if so needed. After the war was over we were selected to go island hopping seeking U.S. military personnel that may have been left behind. This was appx. a three month assignment. I left the ship in Hawaii as there was repairs to be made and the ship was going to drydock. There was enough points accumulated for my discharge and rather than delay I left the PC 1228. Your story is not entirely wrong however the record of this ships service is absolutely wrong. Thank you for making the correction and rewriting this article.
