Re: What ship deck logs are available online?
David Johnson Feb 25, 2021 10:57 AM (in response to Tom Boyer)I know of two places to get deck logs online.
The first is: http://https://catalog.archives.gov/search?q=*:*&f.ancestorNaIds=594258&sort=naIdSort%20asc. You can search for the specific ship you are looking for.
The second is at: https://www.archives.gov/research/military/logbooks/navy-online. A list of ships and years are available.

Tom Boyer Feb 25, 2021 12:27 PM (in response to David Johnson)Thanks for the links. The first one didn't work but got to the second one ok. Looks like there are not many deck logs at NARA. Maybe I will have to hire a researcher to find the deck logs of the ships I'm researching.

Sorry about the link. Here is a sure fire way to get to searching for logs: https://catalog.archives.gov/id/594258
There's a button to "Search within this series" that should take you to the page I wanted to send you to.
I've been working on several projects that require deck log access too, so I know how you feel. What ships are you researching and for what years? There's a commercial site, Fold3, that has some deck logs and a large number of war reports for WWII era ships.
