Welcome Aboard, Jupiterians
A message from our fearless leader
USS Jupiter AK-43 / AVS-8 
USS Stoddert Crewman Ron Zorn served aboard Jupiter 3 years before
the Stoddert. He and Mike Rigdon have been the hosts for Jupiter reunions since 2000. The Jupiter won 6 Battle Stars in WW
II and Korean. Her crew is now so few that future reunions would be impossible, so Ron and Mike requested to be a part of
the Stoddert Group, which was approved at the Jacksonville Business Meeting. We are looking forward to future reunions with
USS Stoddert. Ron Zorn and Mike Rigdon |
