The Time Capsule

Sixty-five years ago a young Naval Ensign reported aboard the USS Ernest G. Small as its first Communications officer and was assigned the ancillary duty of editing the ship's first newsletter.  Although short lived, the newsletter, named Small Talk, was published weekly until mid-1946.  You can view those stories from yesteryear on the following page. Click Here!






"To educate and inspire old shipmates and newcomers regarding the history of the U.S.S. Ernest G. Small and her crews. We will keep our members posted regarding annual reunions and other events. We solicit your stories about memorable events and shipmates during your tour of duty aboard the U.S.S. Ernest G. Small (DDR-838)."

Our recent organization change to "USS ERNEST G. SMALL ASSOCIATION" adds to the mission.  Now, in addition to bringing you news, history and entertainment in via the internet, we will also publish the quarterly newsletter "Small Talk" and facilitate all future, annual Shipmate Reunions.
