Leroy Moore

Sailor - a World War I Log Leroy Moore

Roy Moore was proud to be an American. He was a child of the Hudson River and a man of the sea. When his nation went to war, so did he, aboard the Destroyer USS McCall convoying ships across the Atlantic through all weathers, rescuing survivors from harm's way and lobbing depth charges at enemy submarines. This is his daily log from that first World War, along with what remains of photographs and keepsakes washed ashore from his many experiences. Memories all lovingly preserved here in the writings of three generations.
