Doug Graybeal, from Branson, Missouri, provides some remarks during a memorial service aboard the decommissioned Iowa-Class Battleship USS Wisconsin (BB 64) for former crewmembers of the USS Hopewell (DD 681). Graybeal served aboard the Fletcher-Class Destroyer from 1966 to 1970. Hopewell was originally commissioned in 1943 and saw service during WWII, the Korean War and Vietnam War. Former crewmembers and their families were aboard the Wisconsin for their bi-annual reunion, which included a short memorial service. The brief ceremony was hosted by the Hampton Roads Naval Museum, located next door to the Battleship on the Nauticus campus in Norfolk, Virginia. (US Navy Photo by Max Lonzanida/Released).
