U.S.S. CHARLES BERRY (DE-1035) The USS CHARLES BERRY (DE-1035) is the third ship of the new CLAUD JONES (DE-1033) class destrover escort. She was named for Marine Corporal Charles Joesph Berry, who was killed in action during the seizure of Iwo Jinia in World War II. Corporal Berry was posthumously awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for throwing his own body over a hand grenade, shielding the shattering explosion from his fellow marines. Corporal Berry ' s namesake was launched on March 17. 19.59 at Avondale Marine Ways, on the Mississippi River a few miles north of New Orleans, Louisiana. Mrs. Carl Berry, mother of Cpl. Berry, christened the 1750-ton warship. On 25 November 1959 the USS CHARLES BERRY was put into commission at Charleston. South Carolina. Shortly thereafter she sailed on her maiden voyage through the Panama Canal, and on 3 February, 1960, arrived in San Diego to join Escort Squadron Three. Four and a half months later, on 14 June, the CHARLES BERRY pulled awav from the fueling docks at San Diego to start her first cruise to the Far East. During a six-month deployment, she visited Hawaii. Guam. Taiwan. Okinawa and Hong Kong, and stopped at manv parts in Japan, the Philippine Island, and throughout the Caroline, Marianas, and Bonin-Volcano Islands. Early in the cruise, on 20 July, the CHARLES BERRY passed Iwo Jima. With her flag at half mast, she lay to off the island as her crew bowed in prayer in remembrance of Cpl. Berry, who had died there 15 years earlier. On 25 November 1960, her first birthday, the CHARLES BERRY was docked at Yokosuka. Japan, one third of the way around the world from Charleston.
