Photo Gallery 8In July of 2009 I got an e-mail from Tim
McIntyre, son-in-law of Chuck Follis. Tim told me that Chuck Follis had
recently passed and that he had a number of photos that seemed to be
from the same roll of film that several of my father's (Earnie Trahan's)
photos had come from. They included 3 photos of my father. I decided to
combine photos from both collections on this page. Many thanks to Tim
McIntyre for his work in scanning these photos & helping preserve the
memory of Chuck Follis & the men of the USS Ormsby. If you can identify any of the unidentified people
in these photos, please contact me by clicking here.
The pictures seen here are from the collections of
Earnie Trahan & Chuck Follis
