WASHINGTON (Aug. 26, 2023) James Tatum, a 100-year-old World War II veteran who served aboard USS Sangamon (CVE 26), salutes as the names of shipmates who have passed since the last reunion are called out. The Escort Carriers Sailors and Airmen Association (ECSAA) visited the existing museum at the Washington Navy Yard, Aug. 26, as part of the organization's annual memorial service and membership meeting. With the passing of so many World War II veterans and so few remaining on their ECSAA rolls, the group came to the nation's capital to honor their fallen shipmates and to refocus their efforts from a reunion mission to one of historical preservation.
