Welcome! This website is dedicated to the men who served aboard the USS Calvert during WWII, Korea, Vietnam and the years between these conflicts.

Former crew members, and their families, have shared a majority of the content available on this site. I am grateful for their contributions. If you have something to share, please do, and you can learn more here.

Additionally, there are over 1,300 pages of chronologically historical research notes available to view and download here:

• Origin story and design characteristics
• WWII – 600 pages: Daily, hourly, and minute-to-minute details
• 1950s – 185 pages: Higher-level events and personal accounts
• 1960s – 525 pages: Daily details and personal accounts

These detailed records are possible with the digital records available at the The National Archives online catalog. Combining these archival details with the contributions of crew and families, these documents provide a way of understanding of what life was like aboard the USS Calvert during it’s long service in the U.S. Navy.
