ANNOUNCEMENT: The USS REID 369 site has been permanently archived at the University of Massachusetts Library at the Gardner/Wilson Collection of the USS Reid 369. The site is shown below and can be found at: View the Archive.
The collection is named after Leonard Gardner, USS Reid

Wilson) a USS Reid 369 shipmate. Both Gardner and Wilson are graduates of
the University of Massachusetts. Gardner a B.A. 1949, and Wilson a PhD in 2000.
The University Archive was kind enough to give the USS Reid 369, with its
website and photographs, a permanent home. Funding for this website and
archive, contributed by survivors of the USS Reid 369, has been donated to the
University to preserve the Reid materials and support archiving World War II
materials. This website will continue to be
available on the Web. Leonard Gardner was celebrated, along with the USS Reid
369, with an honorary doctorate in May 2018 at the University of Massachusetts
at Amherst. The picture below shows Gardner and Wilson at the event. |
