Reason for reading about the Vance : My family history
Comments: My family and I are going to make a donation to the Pearl Harbor Memorial Fund. We would like to send the donation in my Dad's honor and would like to know how I can research his rank and more info to go with the donation. His name is George R. Neugebauer. Does anyone from the Vance remember him? I know he did some periscope work.
Also, I have some photos to share with the remaining Vance crew. How should I go about doing this? Sadly, my Dad passed away in 1991. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hello, Joe,

Thank you so very much for your reply concerning my Dad, George R. Neugebauer. (Vance crew 1943-?). I have forwarded your reply to my brothers and sister.
I was pleased to see his name in the muster as my searches were not successful. Excuse my ignorance, was the Vance a Navy ship or Coast Guard? I think my Dad was in both. He was also Military Police and was stationed at Schofield (sp.?) Barracks. I would like to include this information with our contribution to the Pearl Harbor Memorial Fund.
I thank you so much for being in touch with me. There is so little we can do in remembrance and this connection with you brings us closer to my Dad. I look forward to hearing from you or any other members of the Vance that might remember my Dad.

Happy New Year to you all. Karen Schaar (Neugebauer)
