Extinguishing fires in ammtiinition dumps, seizing enemy machinegun nests with hand grenades and an automatic, risking personal safety to retrieve wounded comrades, twice wounded himself-Sergeant Major Daniel Daly throughout his career typified the aggressiveness, stamina, and courage that his ship, the USS DALY, exhibited in her contacts with the enemy. Daniel Daly first enlisted in the Marine Corps in l899 - For 30 years he remained in the service of his country, fighting the famed Boxer Rebellion in China in 1900, the Spanish-American War, Cuba and Vera Cruz, the seizure of Haiti and Fort Liberte, ffor which action he received his first Congressional Medal of Honor! : and then the Great War, World War l.

No man in any walk of life ever received a higher degree of loyalty, or more thorough and en- thusiastic support than you gave to me. For all this l am truly grateful, and I shall treasure always the fine associations and friendships which we made while' serving together. , God Bless You, and Good Luck Always! R. G. VISSER, Captain, United States Navy The DALY has cruised a long way from the time of her commissioning at Staten Island on 10 March 1943, to her decommission at Charleston, S. C. That period has been spent in serving the nation and the Navy, and in piling up a record of which you may all feel justly proud. Some of you made the whole cruise, the rest of usonly a part of it. But each has contributed to the best of his ability, and our record speaks for itself. To all of you, wherever life may carry you, good luck, and REMEMBER THE DALY R. R. BRADLEY, JR. Commander, U. S.

DALY, with a displacement of twenty-one hundred tons, was contracted for on 9 September 1940. -She was built by the Bethlehem Steel Company and launched at 9:20 a.m. fwartimel, Saturday 24, October 1942. Mrs. Arthur Ransweiler of Glendale, Long Island, N.

The officers and enlisted men lined up in ranks in full-dress uniforms to await the arrival of the commissioning party. ' The guests of the officers and enlisted men of the ship were gathered in a seating platform provided for this occasion on the dock abreast the quarter- deck. ' Upon arrival of the Commandant, Third Naval District, the commission- ing ceremonies co-mmenced. The prospective Executive Officer ordered ffAtten- tion! As all hands-came to attention the prospective Executive Officer re- ported to the Prospective Commanding Officer, ffCaptain Visser, all hands are up and aft. The Prospective Commanding Officer 'turned to the Captain of the Yard and reported, ffCaptain Mcliittrick, we are ready to proceed with the Commissioningn. All hands, proudly and smartly standing at attention, looked toward the Captain of the Yard as he requested permission from the Commandant to proceed with the commissioning. The Captain of the Yard read the Commissioning Directive and turned toward the prospective Commanding Officer and repeated, afn accordance with the instructions of the Chief of Naval Operations, l direct you, Captain Rich- ard G. Visser, to place the U.S.S. DALY in commissionw. The Prospective Commanding Officer replied with a snappy ffAye, Aye, Sir and turned toward the -crew and ordered, ffRight face., left face, about face . The officers and en- listed men then stood facing the colors as the band played the national anthem. When the band had finished playing the national anthem, the Executive Officer reported to the Commanding Officer g ffCaptain Visser, the ship has been placed in commission . The Commanding Officer immediately read- the orders and reported to the Captain of the Yard, ffl accept command of the U.S.S. DALY . Upon accepting command, the Commanding Officer ordered 6fBreak the flag of the Admiralf' The pennant was immediately hauled down and the ship rendered honors. Upon the completion of this phase of the ceremony, the Captain ordered ffSet the Watch! The Executive Officer replied with ffAye, Aye, Sir , ffset the watch, first sectionn. The first section left ranks on the double to report to their watch stations. The first officer of the deck was desig- nated and ordered to his duties. , Vice Commander in Chief, Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States,,Captain Jean A. Brunner, presented to the U.S.S. DALY a portrait of Sergeant Major, Daniel Daly, U.S.M.C., the band played again and the ship rendered honors as the.Commandant left the ship, completing the ceremony. The DALY remained in the Brooklyn Navy Yard undergoing the fitting out processes. Upon completion, she sailed from the Brooklyn Navy Yard steaming out of New York Harbor en route to Newport, B. I., for torpedo-firing tests and the beginning of an intensive tour of training known as the ffshake- downw. The DALY conducted training exercises, operating at Newport, B. I., Casco Bay, Maine., down the East Coast of the United States to Puerto Bico and.C-uantanimo Bay, Cuba. From Cuba backup north again to the icy, sub- marine-infested waters of the North Atlantic, operatingout of Argentia, New' Foundland, the long period of intense training in these areas was completed, the DALY and her crew had become more familiar with each other and were ready for whatever duty awaited them. From the rough waters of the North Atlantic it was back to the good old Brooklyn Navy Yard, where well-earnedliberty made its contribution to the spirit of the crew. A few minor details were taken care 'of in the yard, and the ship once again set out to sea. As the ship steamed out o-f New York Har- bor, the boys took a good look at the beautiful city of .New York. All eyes were on the tall structure standing out in the bay, the Statue of Liberty: the sight o-f that statue made everyone proud to be a part of what it stands fori Thzrty eight X I - .sf- H -- 4 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I , I I I I4 u I I III Ig! .......4......A.........-... ---. ..... ..-...., II P.

I I Forty From New York, course was set for Cape Cod Canal and Massachusetts Bay. At Massachusetts Bay a rendezvous took place with other destroyers and the new Lexington, the aircraft carrier that was built to replace the older fight- ing Lex. i After a few exercises with the Lex, the ship pulled into Commonwealth Pier, Boston, and again liberty! e The ship left Boston, and course was set for Norfolk, Va. Here the Lex- ington had to go into dry dock for a number of days, and that suited the boys very well, the more liberty, the merrier. On 22 July 1943, the Lex was ready for sea, the DALY and accom- panying destroyers escorted her to the Panama Canal. Here the little force wasbroken up. The Lexington and the other destroyers went one way, the DALY the other, but not without giving the boys a taste of liberty in Colon and Balboa. There were many big heads the morning the ship departed from Balboa into the Pacific. By this time, scuttlebutt had been getting around concerning the tour of duty the ship was to serve in the Aleutian Islands. It all remained scuttle- butt until our departure from San Diego, the Captain broadcast over all cir- cuitsg uOur next port of call will be Adak, Aleutian Islands. This seemed to smell of action, fo-r only about one hour's flying time from Adak was the .I ap-held air base of Kiska. The anxious crew brought their destroyer into Kuluk Bay, Adak Island, Aleutian Islands, early in August 1943. The presence of large naval forces gathered there made it very obvious that the Japanese strong point of sKiska they had heard so much about was soon to be scratched from the list of .I ap held island bases. THE ASSAULT AND OCCUPATION OF KISKA As a unit of the United States Pacific Fleet fFirst Fleet and North Pacific Forcej the DALY was assigned to a reserve force of transports whose job was to reinforce our troops on Kiska after the initial landings. Everything ran smoothly and quietly until, just after midnight of 17 August, the general alarm was sounded and all hands leaped from their bunks and manned their battle stations. Everyone remained on his toes for an an- ticipated torpedo attack by enemy submarines. One of our destroyers suffer- ed from a violent underwater explosion. This event brought the first battle fear to the crew as they waited for information on the explosion. It was soon learned that it wasn't 'a torpedo that caused the explo-sion, but a mine. One of our ships had been seriously damaged. When the estimated number of casualties of this ship was announced there were many scared faces on board. Fighting .laps was one thing, but mines, underwater obstacles, was another. When the occupation of Kiska was completed, the ship started back to Adak for fuel, provisions, etc., for the remainder of the time in the Aleutians, the battle was against weather and mountainous seas. The ship experienced many rugged days and nights while on patrols from Adak as far as Attu. Storms in the Aleutians seemed to come from nowhere and at any time. Theswur of duty in the Aleutians lasted from August until November 1943. During this period, there were enjoyable trips as well as the unpleasant ones. The ship made a modified tour of the Aleutian Islands. lVIost of the crew had the opportunity to go ashore on Kiska. Then down to Dutch I-Iarbor, where liberty was granted, giving the'-boys the opportunity of visiting small Unalaska. For days everyone talked about the way they were robbed at a little souvenir shop at Unalaska and the brawl they had with members of the crew of one of the other ships in the squadron. From the latter part of September until our time of departure from the Aleutians, the DALY operated with a cruiser-destroyer task force of the Ninth Fleet. Nothing of importance happened during the long, tireso-me patrols. One night, while on patrol around,Attu Island, word was received that ten Jap- III ' If :I II I F - II .

Forty two Her Adventures K continued j anese medium bombers, believed to be uPnettys , were working over our air- fields. Early in November, the ship left Adak en route to a new assignment. Now the day was coming, for everyone Pearl Harbor lay the active war zones and plenty of laps. Pearl Harbor for knew that beyond Harbor. The foul warm. There was sea was calm, not On Thanksgiving Day 1943, the ship arrived at Pearl wear gear was tucked away, for here the weather was very no comparison with this area and the Aleutians. Here the even the slightest sign of fog. The period in Pearl Harbor from Thanksgiving Day until 9 December 1943 was one of more advanced training than that which had been previous- ly experienced by the crew. Long, hard periods of anti-aircraft, anti submarine and fighter-direction exercises were conducted. The boys all knew that they were being prepared for a really tough schedule in the not-too-distant future. On 9 December 1943, the DALY departed from Pearl Harbor en route to Milne Bay, New Guinea, via Funi Futi, Ellice lslands, and Espirito Santo, New Hebrides lslands. The ship anchored at Milne Bay, New Guinea. Then came the meeting of Commanding Officers, which usually led the crew to believe that something very important was coming up. Most of us' had guessed from scuttlebutt that the ship was to participate in the assault and occupation of Cape Gloucester, New Britain. lt wasn't only scuttlebutt that prepared the crew for what was coming off g there was much more than that. The Captain, for the first time, calledl the crew to the fantail. The word was passed throughout the ship on all circuits: uAll hands lay aft to the fantailf' How well everyone got to know those words! Those words on many occasions meant that stores were coming aboard or ammunition was coming on board, but scuttlebutt again served its purpose. Scuttlebutt even got around that the Captain would call all hands to the fantail at such-and-such a time. Usually a good part of the crew would be there waiting before the ,word was even passed. The Captain finally would make his appearance and all hands would come to- attention. With maps of our objective areas in hand and an admirable smile on his face, the Captain would say: 6GWell, where are we going this timen? If someone didn't holler Hthe States or 64Sydney, they let out the chosen scuttlebutt. The Captain would then give a big smile and commence his prepared talk on the operation. It usually started something like this: uWe have been granted the privilege of operating with a force of destroyers escorting LSTs to Cape Gloucester, New Britain. Then he'd tell us what to expect when we got there, -the strength of the enemy in surrounding areas, and, most important of all, the particular Job the DALY had been assigned to do THE ASSAULT AND OCCUPATION OF CAPE GLOUCESTER On the 24 December 1943, the ship left the Buna Roads, New Guinea, en route to Cape Cretln, New Guinea, for a rendezvous with an echelon of LSTs and a tug The rendezvous took place at the scheduled time, and the DALY, as a unit of Task Force 76, U S Seventh Fleet was off on her first mission in the Southwest Pacific On the day after Christmas 1943 the force arrived at the channel entrance to Borgen Bay Cape 4 loucester and proceeded to patrol the area north of Cape Gloucester The LSTs went off to their deslgnated beaches to unload troops and tanks, trucks and artillery guns that would soon blast the Japanese from every stronghold that they presently held on the Cape Everything went smoothly and quietly The boys kept saying to each other It s another llq1Sk3 Finally during the late afternoon the silence was ous a1r battle was belng fought by our air patrols and the enemy aircraft A number of these planes were getting through ou1 air patrols and the ship s combat informatlon center blared away with reports of unidentified aircraft ' U U . , . .

The OTC shouted the order over the TBS for all ships to stand by to -.repel enemy air attacks. V ' It was a matter of minutes before every gun on the ship blazed away at enemy planes diving in from all sides. One of these planes managed to obtain a direct hit on the sister ship of the DALY, the U.S.S. Brownson fDD518J . She was sinking fast. A good many of the crew saw the horrible sight that shall never be forgotten. The Brownson burst into flames amidships, and her crew was streaming over the sides into the shark-infested waters oil' New'Britain. - Enemy planes again came in at us dropping bombs that landed 50 to 100 yards in the wake and on the starboard beam. The ship's' guns blasted two of the attackers from the sky. The ship ceased maneuvering radically and took position to rescue sur- vivors from the Brownson. Both boats were lowered into the water and rescue operations began. The gunners watched the sky eagerly for enemy planes, the ship was dead in the water providing a perfect target for the enemy planes had they come in again. Rescue operations continued until every survivor was aboard. They were treated quickly. Every man that could be spared from his battle station assisted, saving the lives of many o-f the survivors. s The crew of the DALY was no longer a green crew. They had now seen war. They were no longer eager to get into battle with enemy planes, but when the enemy planes came around they gave them a hot reception, knowing it was either the DALY or the planes. The air-sea battle at Cape Gloucester was long remembered by all those who were present. We now knew that we had 'to be on our toes, we had to do our jobs and do them well. This battle gave good evidence of what future was in store for us in the Pacific. It meant teamwork-something the officers and men exemplified. U A Enemy planes appeared in the area quite often during the remainder of the day. Our air patrols performed a marvelous job of intercepting the larger numbers of enemy planes before they got into- position to attack. Be- tween the anti-aircraft firing from our ships and the splendid. work of our air patrols, over 80 enemy planes were shot down during the assault and occupa- tion of Cape Gloucester. Following Cape Gloucester were operations reinforcing the .Cape and new assaults on New Guinea. Q THEF ASSAULT AND OCCUPATION OF FSAI-D-OR, N. G. On New Year's Day 1944, the ship departed from its base at Milne Bay via the regular routes to escort and cover amphibious units, Seventh Fleet, to the Saidor Area, New Guinea, for the assault and occupation of this enemy area. It was not a very difficult operation, as our fighter cover prevented enemy planes from interrupting the operation. A few, days after the initial landing, the ship made numerous trips from Saidor to various bases on New Guinea, escorting reinforcements back to Saidor. - After the situation was well in hand, the ship returned to base at Buna, N. G. Early in February 1944, the DALY was released from duty with Task Force 76, for a ten-day liberty and recreation period in Sydney, Australia. Arriving in Sydney on the 8 February, liberty parties streamed ashore. We all had a well-earned, enjoyable time. Everyone from the Captain to the greenest seaman second class made out well in Sydney Ship's parties and dances went over w1th great success, and, as the Captain told the crew in one of his fantail get togethers, the hunting was very good in Sydney When the period of liberty and recreation was over the ship proceeded back to base at New Gulnea and was reassigned with the Seventh Fleet Thls 0 ' .

During the pre-landing bombardment, every gun from the five-inch to the 20- millimeter hurled shells into enemy positions. This was the first operation in which the guns hurled shells in enemy shore installations. The area around the Admiralty Islands was given a thorough going-over by the force of cruisers and destroyers. After long, tiresome days and nights of patrolling, fire-support, and various other combat duties, the force returned to base in New Guinea. r Most of the talk in the mess hall now, was whose gun was the best and whose gun was putting out the most salvos, etc. Every member of the main- battery gun crew was proud of the record they had thus far obtained. The DALY maintained an excellent record in all her operations because she had a great team. When it came to bombarding enemy shore installations, the gun crews, CIC, director crew, plotting-room crew, lookouts, soundmen, bridge per- sonnel, engineers, and every other group were performing their jobs with pre- cision and a thoroughness that spelled defeat for the Japanese, and the fact remained obvious that one group was no good without the other. The ship arrived at Milne Bay on the I2 March 1944. Although it seemed like a holiday, it was far from that actually. There was routine ship's work to be carried on, replenishment of ammunition and provisions, correcting defects noted in the last operations, etc. RAIDS ON ENEMY SHIPPING AND BOMBARDMENT OF SHORE INSTALLATIONS AT WEWAK, NEW GUINEA On the I6 March 1944, the DALY was directed to lead a force of destroy- ers 1nto Wewak Harbor to destroy enemy shlppmg and to knock out shore ln stallatlons at Wewak Polnt-the most darlng operation yet performed by the Shlp With lncomplete and outdated charts and very llttle knowledge of what mlght be encountered 1n Wewak Harbo-r, the DALY led the force of destroyers into the objective area That night will never be forgotten by any of the boys As the ship steamed into the harbor, Japanese signal llghts flashed their challenge If only the .I ap code could have been known to us, what an answer they would have received' After steaming into the harbor on a zigzag course to avoid numerous enemy barges the ship got into position to make careful radar sweeps of the mner harbor How we ever got out of the harbor wlthout casualties, no one will ever know For the first time slnce our battle practices the torpedomen had the pleasure of firlng their deadly fish Thelr target was an enemy merchantman lying at anchor in the harbor A beautlful colored ball of fire lndlcated that their fish had h1t the target with deadly results Now it was the enemy s turn Shore batterles opened up from various positions on the beach Thanks to the cover of darkness and poor marksman shlp and some execellent defensive maneuvers the enemy s shells passed harm lessly overhead or short of thelr target A small escort vessel opened up wlth three mch guns from the inner har bor the main battery answered her fire She fired no more It proved to be quite a nlght Just before the scheduled tlllle of retire ment enemy planes were detected taking 0E from an alrfield on Wewak At O , C O ' 0 9 l - - cc 97 - - 9 - ca 99 ' ' O . 9 ' ' u 0 s 9 - 9 9 s y - - 9 . .

After shooting up all the shipping that could be found, and blasting shore installa- tions on Wewak Point, the force of destroyers retired from the area without a causalty. ' . During they months of April, May, June, and July, the DALY participated in operations taking the shipl from Milne Bay all the way up the coast of New Guinea to Cape Sansapor on the northernmost tip of the island. BOMBARDMENT OF HANSA BAY, ALEXISHAVEN AND MADANG On 10 April 1944, the guns of the destroyer DALY poured death and de- struction into troop concentrations, piles of stores, trucks, and other installations at Hansa Bay, New Guinea. Following up Hansa Bay, they hurled their shells into enemy installa- tions at Alexishaven and Madang, New Guinea. ASSAULT AND OCCUPATION OF HUMBOLDT BAY, HOLLANDIA, DUTCH NEW GUINEA ' On 22 April 1944, our '4Mighty QD' commenced knocking out shore batteries and destroying installations at Humboldt Bay, paving the way for the scheduled landing parties and the swift occupation of Hollandia. Following the initial landing at Hollandia, the ship, as a unit of the cruiser-destroyer task force, patrolled the sea lanes leading to Humboldt Bay to prevent enemy surface forces from interrupting the operations there. BOMBARDMENT OF SAWAR AND WAKDE ISLAND 4 AIR DROMES, DUTCH NEW GUINEA On the 29 April 1944, as part of the patrolling protective force of cruis- ers, destroyers, and escort aircraft carriers, the DALY, accompanied by a small force of destroyers and cruisers, broke oil' from the main force to conduct an attack on enemy airdromes at Wakde and Sawar Islands, New Guinea, where it was believed enemy planes were taking off to raid our forces at Hollandia, About 0100 on 30 April, the bombardment commenced. The destroyers' accurate guns first hurled their shells at installations in the Sewar Area, then at installations on Wakde Island, causing tremendous explosions and violent fires in the areas. When all the designated target areas had been thoroughly covered, the force retired to join the main force and continued patrolling the area around Hollandia. With the situation well in hand at Hollandia, the force of destroyers, cruisers and escort carriers left that area for retirement to the newly won base at Seeadler Harbor, Admiralty Islands, for replenishment of ammunition and provisions. THE ASSAULT AND- OCCUPATION OF WAKDE ISLAND, ' DUTCH NEW GUINEA The next event in the DALY's battle history took place at Wakde Island. As a unit of Task Force 75, the ship left .Seeadler Harbor on the 16 May, arriv- ing at Wakde Island the following day for the scheduled pre-landing bombard- ment of that island. Her guns poured death and destruction into enemy installations on the beach at Wakde. The scheduled pre-landing bombardment completed, troops stormed ashore without opposition. Reports came by radio from the shore fire control parties that there were scores of enemy dead around the little island. The bombardment force of cruisers and destroyers then departed from the scene of action for retirement to Humboldt Bay, Hollandia, for replenishment of fuel and ammunition. A portion of the destroyer-cruiser force remained in the covering area north of Wakde-Toem Area patrolling the area in order to prevent the enemy from interfering with further operations on the beach. Fo rty-seven Her Adventures fcontinuedj A n The DALY and the other part of the cruiser-destroyer task force remained at Humboldt Bay for four days before goingfoutto relieve the force patrolling in the covering area. During these four days, some tired sailors Were often driven from their slumber because of the presence of enemy aircraft. Th enemy sent many planes over the area in an attempt to knock Ollt Sl101'6 il1St3113ii0IlS- NOIIC of these planes made an attack on the surface forces in the harbor. ' On the 20 May, the group got under way from Humboldt Bay to relieve the force in the covering area. Here the ship conducted covering operations from 21 May until the 24 May 1944 when the ship again retired to Humboldt Bay to refuel, and replenish supplies. ' THE A.SSAULT AND OCCUPATION OF BIAK ISLAND, - V SCHOUTEN ISLANDS Upon the completion of fueling and replenishment at Humboldt Bay, 24 May 1944, we got under way in company with destroyers of Task Force 75 en route to the area north of Wakde 'Island to join the Biak Attack Force fT'ask Force 775 Until this operation, the going had been fairly easy The enemy hadn't been successful 1n sending planes at the surface forces, fighter patrols had kept the areas pretty well cleared of enemy planes The enemy,s only suc cessful attemps of getting planes through the air patrols were during the nlght After the pre landing bombardment of Blak, the ship conducted radar picket duty about ten miles southwest' of the fire support area On seveial occasions during the day enemy aircraft appeared ln the area and the ship was directed back to Join the force around Blak for protec tive anti aircraft screening duties The going started to get a llttle rough as the day passed on During the late afternoon twin englned bombers passed directly overhead Fortunately these planes weie 1n too much of a hurry to attempt bombing runs on the sur face forces The long days and nights around Biak Island began to get tougher as they passed on On numerous occasions enemy planes appeared ln the area The general alarm began to adopt Weird tones every time It was sounded B tween the anti aircraft fire from the ship s guns and the remarkable work of the all patrols the enemy planes were successfully driven off t1me after tlme 7 . . . . . - - 0 , 7 ' . . . , ' ' ' . e- .- . . , . . 9 u n , . . E Forty eight I Her Adventures fcontinuedj Q 1 During the afternoon of 4 J une, the general alarm gave the warning that enemy planes were approaching and the crew scrambled to their battle-stations. There was very little time to get those guns manned, because this time the planes had sneaked in on us before they were identified as enemy. The next five min- utes brought a fast and furious air-sea battle as anti-aircraft fire from all units made patterns in the sky. The danger of shells from our own ships became just as grave as the danger of enemy bombs. After a long five minutes, the planes were driven off, but the fear of more attacks made everyone's nerves stand on edge. But the next few days and nights of the patrol were exceptionally quiet until finally, on the night of 8 June 1944, the anticipated surface battle began to materialize. Enemy naval forces were attempting to reinforce their positions in the Schouten Islands. The enemy force was detected a little over ten miles away when our destroyers were ordered to attack. The DALY immediately built her 'speed up to 36 knots. In company with three other destroyers, the chase began. The enemy had chosen to run rather than fight it out. With such a great distance between our force of destroyers and the enemy naval units, which were also destroyers, it was doubtful whether or not any surface battle would take place. The enemy had the advantage, they could make course changes to the right or left and let go with their torpedoes, but, for the DALY, the range was far too great to let go torpedoes. p After the first few hours of the chase, the DALY and accompanying des- troyers closed range and opened fire on the enemy. Salvo after salvo was hurled at the enemy. It was a foul night for a sea battle. The sea was rough, and the moon shone just enough so that it was possible to see the outline on the enemy ships, and they undoubtedly saw our silhouette. lt was believed that some of the enemy ships were damaged, but, be- cause of the fact that the enemy layed smoke screens, accurate observations were not available. The chase was broken off when the enemy destroyers were pursued almost to the outer harbor of their protective base. The danger of at- tacks by swarms of enemy planes became so grave it would have been a one- way trip to pursue the enemy any further. ' V -The boys all had a slight feeling of defeat, but, technically, they had no reason for that feeling. They had done their best. The most important thing was that the enemy didn't complete his plan of getting reinforcements to the Schouten Islands. ' ' When the enemy finally gave the Scouten Islands up for lost, the force of cruisers and destroyers left the area en route for Humboldt Bay to replenish fuel, ammunition, and provisions. , ASSAULT AND OCCUPATION OF NOEMFOOR ISLAND, NETHERLANDS EAST INDIES 1 The ship departed Seeadler Harbor on 29 June 1944, en route to rendez- vous off Biak Island, in company with a combined force of cruisers and destroy- ers of Task Forces 74 and 75. V At daylight on the morning of 2 July, our guns again blazed away at enemy installations. The combined force conducted a terrific bombardment of the little island, covering U. S. troops as they waded ashore. This operation proved to be just another pushover. The enemy was weakening in these areas. ' It was almost a month after the Noemfoor operation before the DALY was again called upon. During this time, the .crew had been exerclsed.. Every opportunity was taken to get in as much training as possible. The 1211116.15535 drawing near when the arm of the Pacific Forces would reach out for the Ph1l1p- pine Islands. i - Forty nme Her Adventures fcontmuedj an 3 F ijty The DALY operated with covering forces for the occupation of Cape Sansapor, Dutch New Guinea, on the 30 July 1944. When this small operation was completed, the Captain put out.the dope of our return trip to Sydney, Australia, for some liberty and recreation. The past months were months of long, tiresome operations against the enemy 5 and just the thought of a trip to Sydney created a new high in the morale of the sailors aboard the 519. t Sydney lasted somewhat longer this time than the last-from 13 to 26 August 1944 fthirteen daysj . . The ship departed from Sydney on the morning of 26 August 1944, ar- riving in 'Seeadler Harbor, Admiralty Islands, 2 September 1944. It now became very obvious to the crew why we were called away from Sydney so hurriedly, for on 12 September 1944 the ship was underwayjwith a cruiser-destroyer task force en route to a rendezvous point north of Manokawarl. THE ASSAULT AND OCCUPATION OF MOROTAI ISLANDS, MOLUCCAS Efveryone expected the worst from the enemy at Morotai, which lay some 300 miles south of the Philippines. On 15 September, the ship approached the designated area and com- menced bombarding .enemy installations. Her guns swept the target areas thoroughly. I . The Morotai Operation was a part of a joint operation in the Pacific, for at the time of the assault other forces of the Pacific Fleet were conducting the assault and occupation of the Palu Islands, to the east of the Philippine Islands. The joint operation caused the enemy to pick one of the two islands to hurl his air power against. Because no attempt was made at Morotai, it was assumed the enemy chose to defend his base in the Palu Islands. When the pre-landing bombardment was completed and troops had pour- ed ashore, the ship joined a force of cruisers, destroyers and CVES patrolling the area northeast of Morotai to prevent enemy forces from moving in to break up the operations there. , .lust before sunset on' 16 September, the DALY, in company with the Morotai Covering Force, departed the area around Morotai en route to Mios Woendi Anchorage, Padaido Islands, Netherlands East Indies. During the days and nights until the end of September, the ship, in com- pany with the destroyer-cruiser task force Q Task Force 51, conducted various types of training exercises. Another short period of intense pre-battle training. It became very obvious that DD5l9 was about to participate in something very important-soon-previous operations formed a string of stepping stones to the Philippine Islands. When the ship pulled into .Seeadler I-Iarbor during the early part of October, everyone was astonished by the presence of the fleet that had gathered there during our absence from the base. It didn't seem possible to a destroyer crew that there could be so many large units of the fleet here in this base at Seeadler Harbor. Just a few .months ago it was a Japanese base. Little did anyone believe that it would be used as a base for large units of our Great Fleet, but there they were. The night was so still and quiet it was possible to hear the music and all sorts of sounds from ships throughout the harbor. Signal lights were going steadily. Every direction of the harbor showed a flashing light and the out- line of a mighty warship. The presence of so many units of our Mighty Fleet concentrated in Seead- ler Harbor just abo-ut spelled out Philippine Islands for the wondering crew. The anxiety of the boys now was forming around the Captain's fantail get-to- gether. ' -,..,....-...1...-,.,,,M,.,s.. ,. 4, , t Her Adventures fcontinuedj I Finally the Captain did call the crew together and let go with the dope. As the Captain expressed it, this was the operation long awaited. All those successlve battles in the Southwest Pacific had been completed according to schedule, and the big blow was just around the corner. Leyte Island was the objective. We were told we could expect all kinds of opposition from the enemy while at Leyte. The battle for the Philippines was expected to draw out the enemy fleet and bring forth an all out battle. The DALY got under way on 11 October 1944, in company with Task Force 75, en route to Hollandia, Dutch New Guinea, to join Rear-Admiral Dan- iel E. Barbey, Commander Northern Attack Force. Arriving at Humboldt Bay on 12 October, the ship anchored with the rest of the force, remaining overnight. During the afternoon of the 13 October the ship departed from Hum- boldt Bay as a unit of the Northern Attack Force en route to Leyte Island, Philippine Islands, via a route south of the Palu Islands. While assault forces were approaching Leyte, great Naval Task Forces of our Third and Fifth Fleets were battling it out with the enemy in areas around the Philippine Islands and sea lanes of Formosa. Extravagant claims made by the enemy based on the destruction of units of our Third and Fifth Fleets brought about a worried look on the face' of every man on board. Huge air-sea battles were in full progress for- days. Mighty U. S. carrier forces were sweeping enemy airfields on the Philippine Islands and Formosa. Everyone knew that, without these assaults by our carrier forces, the operations at Leyte would prove much more dangerous and destructive to our attack forces. The Captain kept up the crew,s morale by announcing 'over all loud- speaker systems that all the enemy claims were exaggerated and our carriers forces were hurling successful attacks at the Japanese in the Philippines and Formosa. The boys,began to cool down, because they all knew that the Captain was getting the straight dope from the radio waves, and there was nothing to worry about. Everything was under control. At midnight on 19 October, the DALY with the Northern Attack Force arrived at the entrance to Surigao .Strait and commenced the approach to Leyte Gulf. Mines were sighted much too close aboard for comfort, but the approach continued without damage to the ship or any unit of the attack force. At 0600 on 20 October, silence was broken by intense anti-aircraft fire from a number of ships as two enemy planes made an unsuccessful bombing at- tack on our force. 1 At 0900 the ship's guns blazed' once more. The target was a small island suspected of containing an enemy three-inch battery. From 0925 until 0952 the guns blazed continuously on assigned targets in the San Ricardo Area, thor- oughly covering the target areas. Everything had gone well thus far. The DALY watched eagerly for counter fire from the beach as the first wave of troops landed at 1000. Our mission was now to cover the troops as they advanced on the beach. The guns blazed violently at enemy installations, and the results of the firing was gratifying to see and something to be proud of. The desperate enemy conducted numerousair attacks on the forces of Leyte. There was very little sleep for the boys. Endless days and nights on battle stations. When conditions were such that the crew could be sent below decks to eat, the opportunity was always taken advantage of. As the tired, weary, hungry, homesick sailors started appeasing their appetites with chow which at that time was priceless, the general alarm would sound and everyone would scatter for his battle station. They knew that that sound meant trouble and lots of it. The first few bites were good, anyway.

' It was a long trip back to the States, and the crew put in long hours to get the ship ready for the overhaul period. The DALY steamed through the Golden Gate into San Francisco Bay on 29 November 1944 and, after having unloaded ammunition and having made the necessary preparations for entering the shipyard, proceeded to moor at the United Engineering Company, Alameda, Calif. The time from 30 November until the completion of the overhaul was a well-earned period of liberty and leave for the crew that for just short of 17 months fought an almost continuous battle against the Japanese. In the morning of 12 January 1945, the DALY once again threw off her moorings to get under way. She was a different ship--a new paint job, engines, guns and equipment overhauled, and with over half the crew new, green and inexperienced in the ways of the sea. After taking on ammunition and doing the many tasks necessary to make her ready for action again, she bid Frisco adieu on 17 January and arrived in San Diego the next afternoon. The next four days were spent in and -out of San Diego Harbor, in drills, practices, and exercises, all with a dual purpose, to test the ship and her equip- ment and to teach the newer men some of the ship's routines. ln the evenings, there was liberty, recreation and relaxation for the crew. Shortly after noon of 23 January 1945, the DALY sailed from San Diego, headed for her second phase of the war in the Pacific. En route to Pearl Har- bor, much of the time was taken up by exercises and battle practices with the other ships accompanying the DALY. This was a new experience for many of those aboard. It was their first time away from the friendly shores of the United States, their first uocean cruise , and, for many of them, it was a little too choppy. Letters were writ- ten to those left behind of the vast expanse, of the sunrise and of the sunset, and, finally, of how good the first landfall looked. A new land was before their eyes-the Hawaiian Islands. For others, the old salts from the firstcruise, it was a return to action after-a few days of restful playing and working in the States. They had seen V F ifty-four gi , 1 il A a . .:..?!neg',4,' I , Supporting Carrier Action at Iwo this before, so theirs were not letters of new descriptions. They were busy train- ing the newer members of the crew into an efficient operating group, an organ- ization that could best handle the proud lady who was once again their home. A minimum of time was spent in refueling and reprovisioning, for she was needed to do her part once again in another Gstepping-stone' operation against the enemy, the Japs. The DALY left Hawaii on 3 February. The days were busy with gen- eral and emergency drills, all resulting in a better-polished crew, capable of acting quickly and accurately. We entered Tanapag Harbor, Saipan, in the afternoon of the 12th for refueling and fresh provisions. ' ASSAULT AND OCCUPATICN OF IWO JIMA i Once again, the DALY'S departure was not delayed. She left Saipan the next day, on the 13th, headed for Iwo Jima as part of a screening unit for a carrier task force destined to give the .laps on Iwo much trouble. The force reached its operating area on 16 February. The DALY'S duty was as a screening unit against submarine or aircraft attack on the carriers which were furnishing the planes for harassing and bombing the ,laps on Iwo, as well as being an air cover for our ground troops. Many times ,lap planes were reported in the area, but not until early evening of the 21st did any of them come close to our group. An undetermined number of enemy planes attacked the formation, flying close to- the water. The first target fired on by uthe 5I9's guns burst into flames and 'splashed' on the starboard quarter. Two more fassistslwere scored against the attacking suiciders. One of the escort carriers was mortally wounded by a kamikaze. She was the Bismarck Sea, burning fiercely, with many internal explosions. Her crew abando-ned ship when it was seen that her plight was hopeless. The 519 and five other escorting ships were assigned to aid in the rescue of survivors. Here was a renewal for these old salts, and a new, eye-opening epoch for those who were cgreen hands' such a short time before. The many drills, exer- cises and practices all had a much more definite meaning, now, and showed their worth beyond any doubt. They were more ready for what lay ahead of them, more grim and much more determined. Here was the dirty, sickening, bitter war, right in their laps. The 8th of March found the DALY en route to Leyte Gulf, Philippine Islands-old stamping grounds for ofthe 5I9 . ' F ifty-five II I. II II I I II Il as .I fl I II I I I .44 -v+- I I I I I I I I I .

Once again, the old hands told the newer men that something tbig' was coming soon. The crew had not long to wait. At the appointed time, the Captain called all hands to the fantail. We assembled, trying to guess where the next cstepping stone, was to be. Captain Bradley appeared shortly, charts in hand, and proceeded to fbrief' us on what to be alert for and what to expect on this next operation. I THE ASSAULT AND OCCUPATION OF OKINAWA SHIMA April 1-Easter Sunday-a day of the year for which we used to dress up in our finest for the Easter parade. This time, our parade was much more impressive. A mighty United States invasion fleet was striking at a strong J ap- anese base-a base close to Japan itself, ideal for future o-perations by our air and surface forces. The DALY was a busy lady in this operation. She started off with a bom- bardment of the invasion beach and then supported the landing of our troops. Late the same day, a group of enemy planes were sighted, approaching from overland. One dived for the DALY from dead ahead, but our gunners were far too deadly to allow any damage. The plane was mortally wounded and crashed into the water, 25 yards astern. Another J ap had joined his ancestors with-the assistance of the DALY. X There were many assignments for night illuminations, fire-support and screening activities, as well as numerous air attacks during the following 20 days. On the 21st of April, the DALY moved out to the radar picket line, in charge of a lighter-director team, using a covering air patrol. Under the direc- tion of the DALY, this C.A.P. accounted for five more Jap planes before she was relieved on the 25th of April, to refuel. On the 27th, she was headed back to- tl1e picket line, this time to a dif- ferent position, with another fighter-director team. The 519 arrived on station just as unidentified planes approached the area. It was a clear, dark night and . U , enemy planes were plentiful. Some approached the formation but were driven off by heavy gunfire. The next day-the 28th-broke with perfect weather and the eve1'-pres- ent danger of an attack. The C.A.P., directed by the DALY, accounted for 25 I Her Adventures fcontinuedj n A , kills and 12 more probables. During the late afternoon, a large group of enemy planes dropped from the clouds in a suicidal attack on the formation. Our portside. guns and main battery splashed two. A minute later, the starboard bat- tery splashed another. The fourth, attacking from starboard, burst into flames, lost its wing and crashed with a large bomb which exploded 25 yards off the port side. This plane hada heavy bomb, and, when the J ap hit thewater, death and destruction hit the 665197 The shrapnel tore and ripped the ship and wounded many of her crew., Immediately following this, the fifth plane came in from astern, but .was asplashedn by the fantail gun at some distance. Five minutes of furious action-one plane a minutetshot down-and three men killed and many wounded. The DALY was injured and forced to retire after she was relieved, by another destroyer. The other ship, in. company with the DALY during the ,quick and costly attack, scored one splash and took a suicider into her bow. fThis ship was later sunk by suicide planes, near the end Mo-f the Okinawa campaignlf The two destroyers made their way back to the 'base under their own power. During the entire trip the sky was lit by tracers, but the Nips left the 519 alone. . .. After transferring her dead for burial, and her seriously wounded for further treatment, the 519 proceeded to the, repair base. A The repairs to the DALY were done efficiently and quickly by members of her crew and of the crew from the repair ship. The two units worked as one, against time, making sure the job was done right, for there was more fight- ing to be done. Many times during those nine days enemy planes approached the area, and work was halted only long enough to man the battle-stations until the fall clear was sounded. . On the 12th of May, the 519 cast off .her mooring lines and reported for duty, again ready for whatever might come. First to hit the DALY was an ava- lanche of mail. Sixty-four bags of mail means plenty for all and enough to keep everyone busy. The second day, the mailmen was still sorting the mail. Where morale had been good before, it now rose to a new high. This was what the crew had been looking for - from those at home. V On the 16th of May, we got under way from our anchorage to proceed to an anti-sub patrol station southeast of Okinawa. Q . , Steaming Out to Radar Picket Duty Fifty seven Her Adventures fcontinuedl , The next day,ithe DALY was sent to aid two ships-victims of kamikaze planes-near Ie Shima. She hadn't been there but a couple of hours before another ship was hit by two more of the suiciders. So, she proceeded to the stricken ship's aid immediately. In the late afternoon, we returned to the an- chorage area to transfer the wounded personnel from the stricken ship to an- other for further medical treatment. On the 26th, we pulled patrol duty on an anti-submarine station off Nakagusuku Wan, later renamed Buckner Bay. Enemy aircraft approached often, but none closed the DALY until the morning of the next day. Two Jap Vals approached from the east. They split, one maneuvered to crash the DALY but was shot down by her blazing guns 1,500 yards out on the starboard beam. The other plane disappeared into the cloud cover and then dived at another ship, crashing into her on the starboard side, causing serious damage and fire. The DALY escorted her into Nakagusuku Wan and then returned to patrol the station. D The 3rd of June, the 5l9 joined the small task unit which supported the assault and occupation of Iheya Shima, another of the small islands in the Ryuku group. After the initial bombardment, the troops landed successfully and took over control of the island. After securing the objective, the small force returned to the anchorage area in the late evening of the Sth, to await further orders. The next assignment for the DALY was the assault and occupation of Aguni Shima, of the Ryuku group. This was accomplished according to plan on the 9th of J une, and the DALY was returned to port for the next assignment. Night Firing Okinawa . Her Adventures fcontznuedl 1 Uur next duty found us as a unit in the screen of an escort-carrier force which was sending aerial strikes against Sakashima. These two weeks were a form of rest for all hands from the grueling schedule of the previous 71 days, although there were many times when 'GG-Q was sounded. Captain Bradley made it known to the crew on the 25th that we were headed back to Leyte Gulf. There was a feeling of loss and of sorrow in leaving behind our honored dead, to rest forever in the area of their heroic struggle. They were gone, but they would never be forgotten. The days between 27 ,I une and 12 July were spent at anchor in San Pedro Bay, Leyte Gulf, Philippine Islands. There was recreation for all. Each day, a small group would go to the beach, where they could have a beer or so, stretch their legs a bit, play ball or just sit around and trade a few souvenirs with the natives. Movies each night topside-rain or no rain. It was a rest that untangled the high-strung nerves of all. . In the early morning of 13 July, the DALY steamed out of Leyte Gulf en route to Buckner Bay, Okinawa, as a part of Task Force 95, under Rear Admiral F. S. Low, in company with cruisers and other destroyers. After fueling in Buckner Bay on the 16th, the force set the course for the East China Sea, for an anti-shipping sweep of the China coastal area. To avoid an approaching typhoon, the force changed course on the 17th and rc- tired fro-m the East China Sea. On the 20th, with the typhoon reported as hav- ing passed to the northward, the course was again ,set for our anti-shipping sweep of the East China Sea. Several small craft were encountered, but inves- tigation showed them to be Chinese. By the evening of the 24th, the force had returned and was anchored in Buckner Bay.

This sweep took the DALY and accompanying ships to the region of the mouth of the Yangzte River. Once again, the only shipping encountered was small craft. The third sweep was started when the force left Okinawa on 1 August. This ship, in company with destroyers and cruisers, proceeded independently to make a close sweep of the entrance approaches to the Yangzte River. Sweeps were made each day until the 6th, when the force returned to Okinawa. The news of the first atomic bombing of Japan brought new hope, and prayers for an early end of the war rose among the men. In the days following the first announcement, and then the second bombing, there was a sense of an- ticipation of something big about to happen. Then came the electrifying news that Japan had offered to surrender. The first report of this from Japan came in just after dark. All hands were skeptical at first, then a wave of hilarity and celebration, colored with shouts, whistles, horns, bells, and gunfire and tracers and searchlights, spread over Buckner Bay, making a spectacle long to be remembered. So it had finally come-the end that we had paid for so dearly' and fought for so long and so hard. The days of waiting for confirma- tion from the Allied Powers were diflicult to bear out, but, at last, that became a reality, too. On 9 September, we left Okinawa en route to' Nagasaki, Kyushu, Japan, in company with escort carriers, cruisers and other destroyers, to participate in the occupation of Nagasaki and the evacuation of Allied prisoners of war from that area. The DALY entered the outer harbo-r of Nagasaki Ko just be- fore noon of the 14th and moored in the inner harbor in mid-afternoon. p At Anchor in Sasebo, Kyushu, Japan A S lxty one Her Adventures fcontinuedl 1 Sun Diego, Back Again--This Time for Keeps -Here was Japan. The fight was over, and from now on' it would be all routine duty. There would be no more ubogeyv-no more suicide attacks- and all firing would be just Mpracticen. We showed movies topside-in a Japanese harbor. HDarken ship was a thing of the past, and it was a relief. All hands began guessing as to the date Mthe 5l9 would be released and allowed to return to 4'Stateside ' once more. Scuttlebutt reached new highs, until, finally, none believed any of the 'cstraight dope that occasionally found its way out. Everyone had adopted the plan of waiting to see what would come and of taking nothing for certain' until it had been given out by the Skipper. There was still work to be done. On 23 September, the DALY stood by for possible fire support during the occupation of Sasebo, a Japanese naval base of importance. After an uneventful day, the support ships returned to Nagasaki. I On the 24th, the DALY and other ships of DesRon 24 left Nagasaki, es- corting a cruiser and an escort carrier to Wakayama, Honshu, Japan. There the Mighty D was granted tender availability for minor repairs to her engines. 4 Later we were sent to Yokosuka, at the entrance to Tokyo Bay. Liberty was more enjoyable at Yokosuka than at any other place in Japan. The city was more modern, and the controlling command had established facilities for liquid refreshments. The use of cigarettes and other personal items as exchange for barter was strictly forbiddeng and, with sky-high prices, there was a marked decrease in the number of souvenirs brought aboard. By now, little was said about when we were to return to the States Almost everyone had adopted a resolution to Walt it out before building their hopes again S zxty two J , - .-- --V -'s-Li ' TT- ' ' ' 1 F 1 1 if i V.

In the early morning of 17 November, the ships of DesRon 24 proudly and eagerly left Japan over the horizon with their bows pointing homeward. The' first part of the trip-from Sasebo to Midway-was a rough one, with stormy weather most of the way. The squadron stopped in Midway on the 25th, only long enough to refuel. Honolulu, Hawaii was reached on the 28th. There too, the stay was short, giving all hands one liberty, and refueling and reprovi- sioning before leaving on the 30th. -' San Diego was the next stop, and that scheduled for the 6th of December. Then down on to Panama through the canal and up the Atlantic Sea- board to Charleston, S. C. where not many months later the United States Destroyer DALY was taken from active service and enlisted in the decommis- sioned reserve fleet prepared to answer the call to arms in the future should any arise.
