LTJG WILLIAM H. EZELL 49-50
I William H. Ezell “Bill” was born 9 October 1926 at Long Beach, California. Currently my hair is grey and my eyes are blue. I graduated from the California Maritime Academy in 1946 and sailed in S.O. Tankers to Alaska from 1946-47.
I entered the Navy at Long Beach and in 1949 went aboard USS FRANK E EVANS (DD 754) in San Diego as Damage Control Assistant when we took FRANK E. EVANS out of moth balls. We operated off the California coast. I departed in 1950. In 1951 I was recalled to the USN to serve as Engineering Officer on board USS MCNAIR DD-679 in Korea and a round the world cruise. After 35 years in submarine silencing R&D, I retired. I have several patents on noise control and was awarded a Fellow In Acoustic Society of America in 1983 for Classified Submarine Noise Reductions.
“Bill” currently resides at 31 Vauxhall, Rm 203, New London, CT, 06320.
