'''The USS Rankin Association''' is a U.S. Navy ship reunion group, dedicated to fostering reconnection and comradeship among all persons ever associated with the USS Rankin (AKA-103 / LKA-103). Formed in early 2003, the group has about 1,300 members.

'''The USS Rankin Association''' is a U.S. Navy ship reunion group, dedicated to fostering reconnection and comradeship among all persons ever associated with the USS Rankin (AKA-103 / LKA-103).
+
The Association was inspired by the activities of five men who were junior officers aboard the Rankin in the early 1960s: George Berninger, John Feeley, Jack Raso, Bob Reynolds, and Louis "Skip" Sander.

A major goal of the Association is to foster connectedness and comradeship among all persons ever associated with the USS Rankin, either as a warship or as a fishing and diving reef. Its priorities are:
 +
 
 +
*To identify and connect with all people who ever served aboard the Rankin, as ship's company, embarked Marines, evacuees, passengers, etc.
 +
 
 +
*To identify and connect with family members of those who served aboard and are deceased.
 +
 
 +
*To identify and connect with anyone else who is connected to the ship in any way.
 +
 
 +
*To have successful reunions as often as the membership desires.

In the fall of 2004, the group held a reunion in the Rankin's former homeport of Norfolk, Virginia. It was one of the most successful Navy reunions ever, drawing about 300 people, including 152 former shipmates and a similar number of guests.

The 2007 reunion will be held from November 1-4 in New London, Connecticut.
    +
Until then, the group will continue to look for other shipmates, and to foster comradeship and connectedness among those who have already been found.
