These Taps Pages list members of the Hancock Association who have passed on, on this, our Shipmate Memorials -These Taps Pages list members of the USS Hancock CV/CVA-19 Shipmates who have passed on, whose names were gleaned from the Hancock Association's 'Hannah News' Newsletter every Quarter. The Yeoman asks your indulgence in the lack of the many names who have "Passed over the Bar" before he began to compile this list. If you wish to suggest a name for either this main Taps Section or the Shipmates Section, please go here.
You may also wish to add your own Memorial which we list on our View Visitor Taps Pages. You may add your own taps here.
