I've been trying for a long time to learn how my late mother's cousin, William Silakowski, died during the War. No one left in the family knows anything; I'd written to St. Louis, but they told me I'd need to know his service number. Now I know. Thank you for making such an informative and interesting site; bless you all!

Great site, and thank you for the work, keeping this piece of military history alive. I was interested in the ship's namesake, a certain Ensign Drexler and Medal of Honor recipient that may be a distant relative/ancestor. I am a (so far) career Navy officer and surface warrior. I've served on the USS Saratoga (CV 60), USS Austin (LPD 8), USS Nassau (LHA 4), USS Merrimack (AO 177), USS Juneau (LPD 10) and USS Dubuque (LDP 8). My most recent position was as Chief Engineer. I am now the Executive Officer at Naval Reserve Center Earle in Colts Neck, NJ. I've been promoting your site to acquaintances and customers.

I am searching for anyone who may remember Billy Hardy. He was a survivor from the terrible sinking of this wonderful vessel. Please if anyone remembers, it would mean a bunch to me and my wife and my mother-in-law.

My government class was a presented a challenge, by a local State representative. The challenge is to get the United States Navy and Bath Iron Works to name another U.S.S. Drexler DD741. We will continue working to get another destroyer named!
