Before I went in the Navy, I worked on those ships 1962 - 1964. I didn't know any of the crew on the "Fitz" personally, but we saw it about once a week somewhere between Detroit and Superior Wisconsin, sometimes within shouting distance.
If you haven't been there, you have no idea of the sheer power of water and the fury that storms can bring to the Lakes.
