Title
USS Charles H. Roan (DD-853)
Description
The USS Charles H Roan (DD-853) Association was founded in 1990 by three former crew members who found each other after registering with the Tin Can Sailors Association
After advertising in various military publications, reunion papers, and related magazines, we held our first reunion in 1991 in Fall River, MA. Since then, we have held reunions in Newport, RI in 1993; in Alexandria, VA (Washington, DC) in 1995; in Buffalo, NY in 1997; in St. Augustine, FL in 1999; in Charleston, SC in 2000; in Norfolk, VA in 2002, and most recently in Warwick, RI in 2004.
All our reunions are well attended, and probably have more shipmates and guests than any other destroyer listed with the Tin Can Sailors Association. Our reunions bring together between 150 - 200 shipmates and guests.
