CANADIAN WARSHIPS IN ORIENT -- HMCS Cayuga (background) begins the departure of the Second Canadian Escort Squadron from Yokosuka, Japan, after a visit made during the current training cruise from Esquimalt, B.C., to the Orient. Other ports of call for the five destroyers escorts include Pearl Harbour, Tokyo, Saigon and Okinawa. In the foreground, preparing to slip, are the new DEs Skeena, Fraser and Margaree. The modernized destroyer escort Crescent is at far right rear.

Alice, Mascot of HMCS CAYUGA

My first dog - Alice. She was apparently a cute little puppy when the crew adopted her. By the time I first met her she was a fully-developed cleaning stations PO.  She was picked up as a stray by HMCS CAYUGA in Guam she started out as an OD (ordinary dog). Serving in the Korean War, she was promoted to AB, LS and eventually P2 (temporary-acting, while so employed). Her action station was below the X mount shelter. When she came ashore she moved in with our family. What most people don't know is that Alice needed a job. She spent her post-RCN days as the dog on the garbage truck in PMQs. She was NEVER late for supper. Courtesy of  Dave Tyre

On the 2nd deployment to Korea, Alice also used the Gun Direction Room (GDR) as an "Action Station." Courtesy of Jim Tyre

This is a photo and caption from a 1952 edition of The Crowsnest. At the time, it looked like a great story. HMCS CAYUGA'S medical officer performed emergency surgery on the ROK soldier and saved him. Only one little problem: CAYUGA'S surgeon-Lt. Sears was, in fact, Ferdinand Waldo Demara - The Great Imposter.

Courtesy of Dave Tyre

The Great Imposter - Demara, known locally as "Fred", was born in Lawrence, Massachusetts in 1921, at 40 Texas Avenue in the lower southwest Tower Hill Neighborhood. He ran away from home at the age of sixteen to join Cistercian monks in Rhode Island, where he stayed for several years. He joined the U.S. Army in 1941. The following year Demara began his new lives by borrowing the name of Anthony Ignolia, an army buddy, and went AWOL. After two more tries in monasteries he joined the Navy. He did not reach the position he wanted, faked his suicide and borrowed another name, Robert Linton French, and became a religiously-oriented psychologist. He taught psychology in a Pennsylvania college, served as an orderly in a Los Angeles sanitarium, as an instructor in St. Martin's College in the state of Washington. The FBI caught him eventually and he served 18 months in prison for desertion. After his release he assumed a fake identity and studied law at night at Northeastern University, then joined the Brothers of Christian Instruction in Maine, a Roman Catholic order. While at the Brothers of Christian Instruction, he became acquainted with a young doctor named Joseph C. Cyr. That led to his most famous exploit, in which he masqueraded as Dr. Cyr, working as a trauma surgeon aboard HMCS CAYUGA, a Royal Canadian Navy destroyer, during the Korean War. He managed to improvise successful major surgeries and fend off infection with generous amounts of penicillin. His most notable surgical practices were performed on some sixteen Korean combat casualties who were loaded onto the CAYUGA. All eyes turned to Demara, the only "surgeon" on board, as it became obvious that several of the casualties would require major surgery or certainly die. After ordering personnel to transport these variously injured patients into the ship's operating room and prep them for surgery, Demara disappeared to his room with a textbook on general surgery and proceeded to speed-read the various surgeries he was now forced to perform, including major chest surgery. None of the casualties died as a result of Demara's surgeries. Apparently, the removal of a bullet from a wounded man ended up in Canadian newspapers. One person reading the reports was the mother of the real Dr. Joseph Cyr; her son at the time of "his" service in Korea was actually practicing medicine in Grand Falls, New Brunswick. When news of the impostor reached the CAYUGA, still on duty off Korea, Captain James Plomer at first refused to believe Demara was not a doctor (and not Joseph Cyr). The Canadian Navy chose not to press charges, and Demara returned to the United States. (Source: Wikipedia)

A few of the photos were identified by Norman, but most have no writing to say when, or where they were taken; however, he did number them so they will be shown here in sequence from the start of the deployment to the last port of call in Hawaii before heading home.

Webmaster's note: During her 1st Korean tour, HMCS CAYUGA entered dry dock twice - once to check the sonar dome and have the ship painted and the 2nd time to have the screws checked as she backed over the ship's whaler.  These two dry dock photos appear to be the 1st dry docking as the 2nd time they only lowered the water enough to check the screws to make sure there was no damage to them.
