Summary

The September 1964 Beaver Beacon reported that Q. M. 1 A. J. Gallagher and his wife, Pat Martin Gallagher, returned to Brooklyn, New York, after spending two weeks with their respective parents, Jack and John Gallagher’s families. The notice says A. J. was stationed in Brooklyn.

Evidence and limits

The earlier A. J./Andrew J. Gallagher Coast Guard notices make the identity link plausible, but this short notice does not provide a complete service file, marriage record, or independent civil identity bridge.
