My father, Frank L. Clift MM1 was stationed on the Colorado during WWII. His nickname was "Pappy" because he was 26 when he joined.  I appreciate the pictures.  Thanks. I too served in the Navy during Vietnam.

My Uncle Charles McDonald, Jr. was killed on July 24, 1944 on board off the coast of Tinian. I'm very interested in a message board which the BB 45 sites doesn't have. I'd like to locate other descendants of veterans who served aboard the Colorado.

Kindest Regards,

I have been compiling an album for my Uncle Bob for his birthday this year. The album is on the USS Colorado on which he served in WWII. The Colorado is dear to his heart and his service to her a great pride he clings to. Your site has been very helpful with info and pic's.

Thank you,
