Marilyn,

I think some of these websites will give you some info:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Fitch_(DD-462)

===================

I am looking for any information on a ship used by the Army during 
WWII called  "Fitch".  My brother-in-law would like to find about the 
ship as his father was a Tech-Sgt. and head of the machine shop. The 
Fitch is the only thing he has to go on. Hope someone can help
