Dedicated to every sailor who experienced a tour of duty aboard one of the Navy’s most unique ships, it’s the mission of the Salisbury Sound Reunion Association to provide a familiar port for Sally Maru’s crew members to revisit a memorable time in their life and reconnect with friends and shipmates.

This website not only serves as a chronicle of this unrivaled ships history, more importantly, it provides a window into the lives of the men who served on her.
