Ship History:
Would you please furnish me with information on the above subject ship. I
served the " HAPPY CAV " from 1956 thru 1959. I would like to what happen
from 1959 to what ever. Ever now and then I’ll meet soneone who knows a
little something about the ship but not enough. Any thing you can come up
with would be appreciated. Oh, I was the unofficial ship’s photographer.
Even
if the ship is in the moth ball fleet I would like to know.
Thanks,

Comment: She started out early in WWII manned and commanded by Coast Guard. Later transferred to USN and renumbered to the 37 (Attack Troop Transport). Over 11 ship citations in WW II, Korea and Vietnam. She was sold for scrap in about 163. If you do a google search for USS Cavalier, you will find lots more including the reunion site.
