Welcome to the USS Bristol DD857 Veterans Association web site! This site is dedicated to all of the men who served aboard the Bristol. The Association is a fraternal organization currently consisting of 260 members. The website was expanded and updated earlier in 2008 to better serve the Association members. It contains a number of features which facilitates information sharing and encourages communications between members.
Check out the members page for a list of current members; many shipmates have posted "before" and "after" pictures of themselves. There are also many pictures on the history page which will bring back memories of your time on the Bristol. The reunions page shares the fun from prior annual reunions and, hopefully, will make you want to join us at the next reunion this October in Philadelphia. The message board encourages direct communication between shipmates. Check it out.
To help you identify new features and changes we have added a "What's New" section on this home page. Come visit us often and participate in fully enjoying the connection with the Bristol shipmates. The membership information page contains instructions on becoming a member. We hope to hear from you soon.
