I served as a Torpedoman on the U.S.S. Blakely (FF-1072), out of
Charleston, from 1979-1982.
I've always loved the Knox fleet, and have been painting each one
for the last 8 years, along with defining each ships crest, by
adding shading and trying to make them look as 3-D as possible.
I recently did a JLB print for an old friend that I made E-6 with
back in 1987, who now is an OLD E-9 getting ready to retire.
I've attached that scan so you can see how my ships look. I take
pride in my detail and try to make each ship unique in it's own way.

Download this picture (it is a scan of a color positive of a painting that was given to the wardroom after the upkeep period that added the hurricane bow). The files are so large I stored them on my own server rather than take the time to upload them which is why you are going to get re-directed if you click here.
