Biography of Charles Coggins

Ordinance Man, Belleau Wood CVL-24, USN, WWII

   My cousin Charles Coggins was on the USS Belleau Wood for the duration and was an Ordinance Man. He spoke little of his experiences and died relatively young. We both joined the USN in Sept 42 in Boston and came from the town of Hudson and only spent less than 4 weeks in boot camp. I saw him three years later in SF and we had a great liberty.
