As you all know, every one of us was ugreen as grass and unseasoned in the game to be played. It seemed as though every man and officer realized this and turned toy' with a will. Mistakes were made. This was to be expected. But from every mistake a lesson was learned, and I can't recollect the same mistake being made twice. All the crew from the lowest seaman to the highest rate made the Old 97' a home. Their Qooperation and spirit marked the ship wherever Z3 Aw cs...-I 4' lg Q she went as a good ship. They accepted any and all jobs with a cheerful Aye-Aye and per- tormed their work with great dispatch and effi- ciency. Such commendations as Well done, and a reputation for loading and unloading and performing our job in the time allotted, speak for themselves. All is in the official record. A good ship, a good crew, and above all a spirit that each and every one of us can look back upon and say: That was one ship that no other ship of her class could beatf, Keep 'er son is the order. And to those of you who remain with her: don't forget to teach the boots', that in order to talk on that d-r phone you've got to push the x?xg gl button down. Charles L.

WALSH , ILLUSTRATED BY LT. CDR. PHILIP L. CHENEY HIS is THE STORY of Old 97, U.S.S. HOLLANDIA QCVE 975, its ofiicers and men, and its work as a wartime ship of the U. S. Navy. It is not a tale of a glamour ship. The HOLLANDIA made no headlines, yet it did all-important work, work that made it pos- sible for others to make Page One, as they drove the enemy back and back and finally to complete defeat. We carried planes and fighting men to the Far Pacific. We flew off Marine pilots to Okinawa airstrips. We replenished Admiral Halsey's big carriers for those last big strikes at Honshu. We did much we will want to remem- ber in years to come. It is hoped that this book will help keep those things fresh in our minds. It all started 18 June 1942, when the 97 was authorized to be built by Kaiser Co., Inc., Van- couver, Washington, under direction of the United States Maritime Commission. The keel was laid 12 February 1944, the ship was launched 28 April of that year. Sponsor was Mrs. W. H. Wheat, widow of a one-time Illinois congressman, who smashed a bottle of champagne Qdomesticj across the bow and christened the ship U.S.S. A.rir0labe Bay. But the Navy changed its mind, as often it does. So on 51 May the name was changed to U.S.S. HOLLANDIA, for the Battle of Hollandia Air Base, New Guinea, which had been fought 22 and 23 April. The following day, 1 june 1944, she was commissioned at Astoria, Oregon, with Captain Charles Loomis Lee, USN, taking command. Commander john Thompson Brown, USN, posted the first watch as executive ofiicer. U.S.S. HOLLANDIA was a Navy ship. Captain Lee, a native of Swissvale, Pa., was graduated from the Naval Academy in 1924, took his Hight training at Pensacola in the class of 1926. He served aboard U.S.S. Lexington, U.S.S. Portlfmd, U.S.S. Alifex, U.S.S. Honolzzlu, U.S.S. Ranger, and U.S.S. Charger before taking command of U.S.S. W0!ve1'i1ze in 1943. From the Wolverine he came to Old 97. Chink married Thelma Collins in 1927. They have one child, Charles Loomis Lee, jr., now 13 years old. Commander Brown is a native of Virginia. He was graduated from the Naval Academy in 1927 and received his wings at Pensacola three years later. He had a tour of duty in cruiser aviation and six tours of carrier duty before re- porting to the HOLLANDIA from U.S.S. Kalinifz Bay, CVE 68. He was married to Cary Hanckel of Norfolk, Va., in 1929. QUR WORK had started long before commis- sioning and it continued with no abating. Organization of departments started at the CVE Pre-Commissioning School at Bremerton, Wash- ington, weeks before commissioning. Officers came along in driblets as the weeks passed, and before long there was a large group of HOLLANDIA officers mustering each morning, then dispersing to enjoy the country club life of the Seattle area. But when our enlisted personnel arrived, the play ended and the work started. Men were interviewed by officers and placed in the depart- ments in which they would be of most value. There was very little departmental work done until we boarded ship, but the organization task wasn't easy and kept everyone well occupied. ff yin l THIS SUPPLY DEPARTMENT had the first taste of heavy labor. Lieut. Nichols reported to Astoria as Supply Officer, aided by Lt. Qjgj Otis Brown as Disbursing Officer, Lt. fjgj Bill Rees, and Chief Pay Clerk Dave Davis. These officers found plenty of work awaiting them. Checking, sorting, and verifying kept them busy for I' ,I if I Q' o ., 5 ,125 9.0, lt' f..t ,' . nx:,o.,',4 some time. Then came the -x o . 'EX' loading of stores and gear. Chief Storekeeper Pauly and -3 Chief Commissary Steward as 7 Homer and a large contin- sg I gent of storekeepers and i.., ll ship's cooks all pitched in. H, The material was carried aboard, allotted to the proper 1 E de artments, and laced in i th? storerooms-End there are plenty of storerooms aboard a CVE. All this was done with a minimum of con- fusion, and at last the men were able to sit back for a while and relax. Or so they thought. But the work didn't end there. It never ended. Supply had the all-important job of handling the groceries. This was a :B14,000-a- month business. Ask any of the many passengers carried on Old 97 about the food. The HOLLANDIA ate as well as any ship in the Navy, and better than most. Another tough job was handling that payroll. Disbursing a monthly total of 3B100,000 is no child's play. Add to that the monthly clothing business of 33500, and the post office funds. It was a real job. But nobody was ever short- changed, and nobody ever had to wander around ship with no shoes. Credit for that goes in large part to Otis Brown. Probably the most difficult, if least colorful, job in the department was estimating require- ments and maintaining sufficient stocks of avia- tion material and general stores at all times. Items handled ranged all the way from a com- mon pin to an airplane wing. Not only should this material be aboard when needed, it should be aboard before the actual need is known to exist. Administering this deal required all the knowledge of an A-1 crystal gazer. Bill Rees and his storekeepers qualified 100 per cent. The Supply Department also ran the laundry. Phil Cheney swears they had one machine de- signed for the sole purpose of turning black socks green, and O.K. johnson claims the laun- dry was guaranteed to tear the sleeves of all shirts, shrink clothing beyond all recognition, and mash each and every button-but the com- plaints were few and far between. The laundry did a fine job. Then there were the tailor shop, cobbler shop, Coca-Cola and ice cream bar, two barber shops, and a store which sold anything from a Tootsie Roll to uniform equipment for officers and men. Dave Davis ran all these establishments. He ran them well. THE AIR DEPARTMENT also had its work cut out. The HOLLANDIA had no squadron, to be sure, but there were plenty of planes aboard throughout its life at sea. And planes mean work for the the Air Department. Ask Ja. any of the men who had to remain aboard to load or un- load planes while more for- tunate shipmates were enjoy- ing liberty. .95 There are three Air De- - partment divisions, V-1, V-2, L ,Y and V-5. V-1 was the flight W j ' if deck gang. Lieut. Ted Hele- ' Q f l X VQJ otes was in charge there until sent to another ship, when he was suc- ceeded by Lt. Qjgj Win Hodge. Their men handled catapult and arresting gear and the planes which landed or took off. There were many landings and takeoffs. We qualified squad- rons in the States and at Pearl Harbor. We flew off those Marines to Okinawa. We flew off planes to Halseyis Task Force and took aboard many of his flyable duds for transportation back to Guam. That all meant work for V-1, and for tri-lltffii-lgilili all the other Air Department personnel as well. Of course the men had to learn most of this at sea, during actual operations. But they re- ceived their first taste of loading aircraft at San Diego before the first trip out. Chief Carrington was the big man. He had served aboard CV's and really knew his stuff. Truly an expert at loading and spotting planes, he could fit a TBM into a spot hardly big enough for a bicycle. His strident voice made the men hop to it. They beefed of coursegwhat would the Navy be without plenty of beefs ?-but they got the work done. Before long they were setting records in loading and unloading aircraft. Plane pushers and the men who worked on the barges which brought the planes to the ship in many ports-they all worked hard and well. Those barges had a wicked way of hopping around on the waves, but the men took it, and fixed slings and hooked the planes to the boom day and night during the loading and unloading operations. Lieut. George Rumsfeld's V-2 gang ran the hangar deck-and a hangar deck was something some of the men had only read about until they boarded the 97. That deck always was a busy place, planes or no planes. Bombs and tanks were stowed there. Gear was stowed in the ele- vator pits. And there were the elevators them- selves. If rain came and the elevators were not raised promptly, it meant water in the pits and on the hangar deck. V-2 boys spent plenty of time swabbing up rainwater. And when there were planes aboard, Rumsfeld and his gang had to check constantly to see that all were well lashed down, that no one had tampered with them. George's leading petty officer, Rood, was a valuable man to have around the hangar deck. And the rest of the boys pitched in also. They learned fast and they learned well. V-3 Division completed the Air Department. Lieut. Vance Alexander, our fighter director, was division officer. His specialty was radar, but he had to see that all was well in aerology and photography. He did a swell job until finally he was handed some of that lovely stateside duty and was succeeded by Lieut. Bill Lewis, who carried on without a break. All the radar boys had received good training -the officers at St. Simons, the men at Point Loma, San Clemente or aboard the Camblazmz. But they didn't really learn what radar was all about until they put to sea and ran into the actual situations they'd studied in almost exclu- sively synthetic form. At sea they learned what a pip looked like, what it meant, how to get a course and speed on an air or surface target quickly and accurately, how to determine how close it would pass to the 97, and when. They also learned that theyid be deeply concerned with navigation, that every time the HOLLANDIA drew close to land they'd hear from the Navigator. ln addition to Alexander and Lewis, radar had Lieut. Art Walsh, Lt. fjgj Lou Darscheid, Lt. Jim Caufield, Lt. joe Turke, and Lt. Qjgj Bob Holden as officers, with Lieut. Dave Thornton also pitching in now and then. Caufield and Turke were maintenance officers. They did a thoroughly capable job keeping the gear in operation. And they had an excellent man in Chief Poole, who knew his radars from A to Z. Fellows like Moyer, Allen, Kostowski, Lord, Lacy, Brandmeyer, Curry and Bafus-and all the rest-kept radar operating at a high peak throughout. Frank Arsenault, a warrant, broke in the aero- logy gang, with their daily forecast. They never missed. They sent up their balloons to see what the wind was doing and why. They sent them up for firing practice. When Arsenault went to another post, Sleeves Thornton replaced him. He's one of the best men anywhere in the Navy. Chief Craig organized photography and carried on well with three assistants. But when he was sent to another ship, two of the others also were transferred, leaving Leigh Klotz to handle the job alone. Klotz was kept busy, but he didn't learn what the LTOLLANDIA photography job could be until it was decided to publish this book. Then Klotz went to work. He took pic- tures of everything. He worked day and night, 9 taking photographs, developing and printing. And he did an excellent job, If you like this book, you must give loads of credit to Klotz, because the pictures are the book. Boss of the Air Department at commissioning, and for some time thereafter, was Lt, Cdr. Tom Bradbury. Brad organized the department and developed it to a high point of ethciency, and when he turned it over to Lt. Cdr. jim Leslie, it was a fine organization. Clarence Bartley, a lieutenant, was assistant air ofhcer until he was sent to another CVE. UNNERY was the baby of Lt. Cdr. Lee Shorty Bains, a Southern barrister, who never lost the opportunity to let one and all know he was a devotee of Blackstone. Organization was a tough task. The de- partment was big, and the men for the most part knew nothing, or next to it, about gunnery. Most of the men in the First, Second, and Third Divisions were land- lubbers. Indeed, Bains had only seven enlisted men who ever had been to sea before. Many had never seen an ocean until they boarded the HOLLANDIA. So, in addition to learning about gunnery, they had to learn how to live and work at sea. These men really had to work at learning their jobs. They had to know their guns throughout. They had to keep them in readiness to fire 24 hours a day. They had to know how to fire them-and to be able to hit a target when they did fire. Gunnery exercises were held often, and the men attained a line degree of efficiency in blasting away at towed sleeves or balloons. There was ,other work too. The Gunnery divisions are the deck divisions. When the men weren't on their guns, they seemed to spend every waking hour in cleaning, scrubbing or painting. And when they weren't doing that they were painting, scrubbing or cleaning! The three divisions were large ones, and as such were harder to handle than the smaller groups. But when Capt. Lee made his first per- sonnel inspection, he named the First Division as the best on the ship. And you don't have to remind Lieut. Kristofak to remind you of that. They were his boys. In addition to the division officers under him, Bains had an ace in Gunner Whittington. Every Navy gunner must know his stuff, and Whitting- ton was no exception. He taught everyone, ofhcers and men. When there was something to be done, the Gunner saw that it was done speedily and properly. He was always there with suggestions-and good suggestions. Bains had Neg England, jack Martin, Kris Kristofak, Bob Rosberg, Dave Rice, and Duke Wellington as his ofhcers when the ship put out to sea. Then Shorty went to the Hancock, Martin to the Colorzzdo, and England became Gunnery Officer. LIEUT. FERRELL ROLLINS was our Navigator, and one of the best. Capt. Lee soon found out that Red's ideas always were solid ones and followed his suggestions gation was under discussion. Red came to the 97 from the staff of Commander Task Force 22, on which he was Qs 761 flag lieutenant. He had - served aboard battleships, light and heavy cruisers, and destroyers-and several car- riers, including the Yorktown and Rd7Zg67'. He was a good man to have aboard. As assistant navigation officers he had Ray Russell, Rusty Gunther, and jack Ward at one time or another. And he had a real salt with him in Howard Thomas Fraser, Chief Quartermaster, who served as Red's third eye. Fraser was one of the 97's three veterans of World War One. QDavis and Cheney were the othersj He enlisted in 1915 and saw duty on both big oceans in that first great struggle. He was at sea on all types of warships. He was a photographer at Pearl on 7 December 1941. Many of the exciting pic- without question when navi- - X u I :Fifa MN tures of that sneak attack by the 'laps were filkefl by his camera. Following that raid he went to sea again and saw action at Guadalcanal, New Georgia, Rendova, Kula Gulf, and Kolomban- gara. So he came to the 97 with a real background. He was invaluable to Red in breaking in the reserve enlisted men of N Division, who included a couple of buglers whose only fault was in blowing reveille when nobody was ready for it. Rollins and his gang always knew where the ship was to go, how it was to get there, and when it was to arrive. We always arrived where and when the orders indicated. HE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT provided the power to make those long trips to the Far Pacific. It had an ' t a W 'fi May F' i M N - s, l,,- T :W if A ee 46 e' tv 3 x , , N 'S lj I I rg ' ' -ik cj 4 ,,.,3,,l enviable record. The Black Gang never got us under- way late, never caused us to run behind schedule. Close calls, but always on time. Lieut. Raymond Pete Shannon was our first engi- neering officer. Pete came to us after sea duty on other Navy ships and with years of experience as a merchantman engineer. He started right out breaking in the Black Gang and took the 97 out on its first trip to Espiritu, Manus, and Guadalcanal. And by the time we had returned to the States the engineering staff knew their stuff as well as any gang aboard ship. There is much to learn in an engineroom. The complexities of station-keeping, for example. We made our first trip out unescorted but when we reached Finschaven, en route from Espiritu to Manus, they shoved us in with a convoy which could make but eight knots. That presented a problem to the 97, which was no speed king but cruised normally at approximately 15 knots, The trip took about 50 hours, all of which were spent in continual jockeying back and forth in order to stay in position. The engineering staff was up against something quite new to most of them. Following that jockeying trip, liuwever, gi revolution splitter was rigged up in the form ot a vernier adjustment for the main engine tut-off levers. This worked out to perfection, lfrom that time on the Black Gang just followed orders from the bridge, proclaiming that if the 97 ever was caught off station, it was the fault of the officer of the deck and nobody else, Shannon's boys were in the clear. When we returned to the States Pete went to the hospital for a short time, then left the Navy to return to his old job of engineering ofiicer on a tanker. Lieut. O. K. johnson, who had been his assistant, took over with Lt, fjgj joe Ander- son becoming assistant engineering otiicer. Whisper Sturgis and Electrician Merchant also were hospitalized, and Lillig left for other duty, leaving Shaky Dubler, Murphy, Dillon, Chan- nel and Winklhofer. Through all personnel changes in the depart- ment one unforgettable character remained--XX'il- liams, the assistant oil king. Williams ran through four oil kings in rapid succession. Possibly they were unable to keep up with his pace. Or per- haps they were smothered under the weight of his omniscience-or possibly just his weight. .asr LIEUTENANT and Damage Control Otiicer was Lt. Cdr. Phil Cheney, Harvard graduate. artist, Vermont farmer and expert on the better things in life, which he'd tell you are liquor and wo- , , tiff-llilur-ffl menhor is it women and liquor? Phil's many duties included keeping the 97 T A shipshape, seeing that repair work was done when and where it was needed. He A! had to handle abandon ship 4' assignments. He had to issue lifebelts. He had to take care dd- lon of all berthing, for both ofii- i cers and men. He had to handle the same thing for passengers, Anyone who has served aboard can tell you that the Q7 HIWAYS WHS Ueflf and clean, always ready for any- fhmg that Came her way in the line- of duty. PASSCIUZCYS were almost unanimous in declaring 43- 44 K ,I FA ff Y I N 4 X Ili, 5' Y S'-.L-,Q 1 '-pl 1 I ,sa that facilities aboard were perfect. Phil Cheney deserves much of the credit for that. Lieut. Bill Evans, known as Windy, was Cheney's assistant until sent to another ship. Dave Rice and Bob Wheeler were other officers who pitched in to make C 8: R an efiicient part of ship's company. And Carpenter Dutelle did much to keep things rolling, instructing his men in routine and the deviations from routine which make sea life at least interesting. COMMUNICATIONS was one of the busier places aboard. More messages-some important, some unimportant-came through than can be imagined, but they were all received, and decoded when necessary. Lieut. Frank Bush 'E was our original Communi- Q cations Ofiiper. He came to the 97 with much sea duty ' XCMHK behind him and was able to give his boys thorough in- doctrination in the whys and wherefores of Navy com- munications. The rest of the communications ofiicers re- ceived their Communications schooling at the Navy's school at Harvard University. Howie Kraft was Bush's assistant, taking over his job when Frank went to a British carrier. Others were Frank Stahl, Don Stoneburner and Tony Finger. Then Stan Helmeci moved over from the Exec's Office. Red Purdy was there for awhile, shifting to gunnery. West and Dennison were later acquisitions. Finger handled the radio gang. Stoneburner was signal officer, and that gave him a chance to get up on the bridge in the open air now and then. In addition, he had charge of the post office and the incoming mail, a really important item to all aboard. Of course the Fleet Post Cffice deserves plenty of credit for the prompt mail service we enjoyed through most of our life at sea, but Stoney made certain that once the mail was aboard it was sorted and distributed promptly. Every single one of us-officer and man alike-ewas grateful to Stoney for that. LT. CDR. OLIVER-later Commander-headed the Medical Department, with the able assist- ance of Russ De Alverez and Bud Clarke and a gang of smart corpsmen. Russ brought babies into the P world as a civilian doctor, but it was appendicitis in- stead of babies aboard the NUT-STU HOLLANDIA. But he handled uw all his operations competently and coolly. Bud was dental officer and gave excellent service in his little cubby hole, all the while keeping up a fast line of chatter about nothing. Anything from a cold to an unruly ap- pendix, from a pinhole cavity to a really beat-up tooth-H Division was the place to apply. Our chaplain - Lieut. Robert DeWitt Yost-was a regular gent. He conducted the Sunday religious services, of course, but that was only a small part of his work. He was always ready to listen to our problems and do what he could to solve them. When emergency leave was requested, it was the Padre's job to make the necessary investigation, then approve or disapprove the request before it went to the Exec and Captain. And there were plenty of personal problems arising aboard ship and ashore. In addition the Padre ran the ship's library, with aid of a yeoman, of course. There were thousands of books or magazines to be loaned out, accounted for and traced down. He ordered the V-Discs which were played during non-work- ing hours. He edited the ship's paper, Casey jones, which was published as often as possible. He was given the job of starting work on this book. Yes, the Padre was busy, but he had time for a bit of fun now and then. HAT BRiNos Us to the Ship's Office. At first we had two offices, the Captair1's and Execs Prophet ran the Captains office, Helmeci the 51369157 5 7-7- '-.'X 3 i Ai. AY ALNAV KEEWEM LET EM IH. ou'lT :xE::, 'f CLERK Q0 Executive Officer's Office before shifting to Com- munications. Later these were merged into the Ship's Office, where all ship's business was trans- acted, with heavy emphasis on personnel matters. Shortly after the change was made, Lieut. Weems, a Regular Navy officer, came aboard as right- hand man to Captain and Exec and took over the office. Chief Armbruster was Prophet's right hand man in the Captain's Office. He did a masterful job there and later in the Air Office and the Ship's Office. THAT MUCH for the sketchy outline of ship's organization. Nearly everyone aboard, both officers and men, had much to learn, and the only way it could be learned was through experience at sea. The great majority of us had never been to sea and never expected to go to sea. The war changed our plans, however, and we all pitched in and made the best of it. Capt. Lee and Comdr. Brown must have had many misgivings when they took over and saw the bunch of landlubbers they had to take out with them, but they were highly capable officers and through their ability and understanding they fashioned the HOLLANDIA and its personnel into a ship that ranked second to none in the United States Navy. We spent nearly three weeks at Astoria after commissioning, for there was much to be done before we could put to sea. Gear had to be in- stalled, stores taken aboard, and many other chores, big and small, performed. In addition, there was a ship's party, with music and enter- tainment, which helped to knit us into a family organization. Finally, on 20 june we got underway, laying our course for Puget Sound, Bremerton, and Seattle. That short run demonstrated one thing conclusively-the men who had been civilians only a short time before were quick to absorb the routine of sea life and to put what they learned to practical use. We spent a few days in the Seattle area load- ing ammunition and stores, then set out again, this time for San Francisco. On this jaunt we had our hrst experience with rough weather. The seas along that section of the West Coast can be rugged at times. The men learned that, many of them to their great discomfort. Some just wanted to stay in the sack and die. Anything would be better than that dread mal de mer. But all but a few remained on their feet, did their daily work and fought it out. And before we had reached the Golden Gate, they had conquered seasickness for once and for all. We had a bit of trouble getting into San Francisco because of rough seas, darkness, and a bit of fog, but Capt. Lee and Red Rollins were equal to the job, with a bit of aid from radar. By the time the sun had appeared and the fog had lifted we were ready to enter the Golden Gate and proceed to our berth at Oakland. We spent two days and nights there in loading, but officers and men did get an opportunity to spend a little time in San Francisco, best city on the Pacific Coast. Then down the coast to San Diego. We took a trip off the coast there for operational training. and the 97 experienced its first landings and takeoffs of Navy planes. Then we loaded up with planes and passengers and really put to sea. fNote: that jaunt down the Wfest Coast is scoffed at by the Regular Navy. Do you call that sea duty? j THE HOLLANDIA got underway 10 Ululy. Shortly after we had cleared the harbor. Cfomdr Brown announced to all hands that our desti- nation was Espiritu Santo. The trip will take' N funn.. XF-i XX --ii ign1 '-Q--mv W i 1 l Vim' 17 days. After stopping there, we will proceed further west. If you've never been to sea, 17 days seems like 17 years. After all, 17 days at sea is quite different from 17 days selling neckties at Macy's. It was a long trip. We made it without incident. We took a southeastern route and encountered few ships and fewer planes. It was better that way, for it enabled Capt. Lee to break in his officers and men. The deck watch officers, none of whom were qualified for that duty when we set out, were trained and qualined for their posts. Gunnery, engineering, communications, radar- all departments and divisions spent the 17 days learning what it was about. And there was plenty to learn. We reached Espiritu on schedule. There we unloaded aircraft and loaded more. Some of us made the beach, but not the Air Department. To those men, as always, fell the task of unloading and loading the planes. However, those who had to remain aboard didn't miss a thing. Espiritu is Espiritu-and the natives can have it. There were no Dorothy Lamours on the islands we hit in our travels. Our next stop was Finschaven, New Guinea. We didn't enter the harbor, but lay outside while the Exec went ashore to receive our orders. There was no change of destination. We still were going to Manus as we had learned enroute to Espiritu. But we were saddled with that eight- knot convoy, so it was a long trip up to the new base in the Admiralties. We were handed quite a surprise at Manus. Naturally we had traveled from San Diego to Espiritu to Finschaven to Manus completely blacked out at night. After all, the Japs had submarines in the Pacific, and there was no telling when we might encounter one. And as we proceeded west, the possibility became more and more acute. Yet when we arrived off the harbor at Manus in the darkness before dawn, all we could see was lights, and more lights. They stretched for miles-and they were bright lights. Hugh Brosnahan took one look and asked in his best New York accent: What is this, Coney Island? We were amazed. Manus was being built into a major naval base. The laps weren't too far away. Yet the lights were everywhere, advertis- ing a target well worth striking at. When we went ashore we expressed our surprise, but the men based there merely shrugged their shoulders. Oh yes, the ,laps are fairly close, but they're well under control. And so it proved as time passed. They made little or no trouble at Manus. And that was all right with us. Manus was the scene of more unloading and loading of aircraft. Again the Air Department was the work horse, while other more fortunate departments were able to allow their men to go ashore. The officers made a bit of history during that stay. They assisted in the opening of the new Fleet Officers' Club. With Pete Shannon setting a giddy pace, they established another part of the HOLLANDIAVS reputation as a fine ship-the play part. There were few ships in at the time, and the 97 gang led all the rest in setting the fast pace which always distinguished that fine club. From Manus to Guadalcanal. Here was a place we'd heard and read about during the earlier days of the war, a place where history had been made. Everyone was more than anxious to get ashore and see the island that had played such an im- portant part in the American drive to regain the prestige so shaken by Pearl Harbor and the events that followed. But enlisted personnel had difhculty in getting ashore. And those who went weren't on the beach f' ab K- - L- -22 f' Terminal Island from 29 AUgUSf fo 20 Sflatfm' SHIRT MANGLER long enough to see much. The officers were a bit more fortunate. Russ De Alvarez, Kris Kristofak, and Art Walsh bummed a ride to a hospital, MOB 8, where Russ was pretty certain he'd find at least one doctor he'd known in civilian life. He found two, and Kris found another he'd known at indoctrination school at Princeton. They proved to be good hosts. There were a few pretty nurses at the club there, but all the HOLLANDIA boys could do was look. But that was something at a place like Guadalcanal. From Guadalcanal back to Espiritu for another short stay and for more work, then back to the States. We were routed this time to Port Hueneme, up the coast a way from Los Angeles. Coming into Hueneme on 27 August we en- countered fog that really was fog. We were delayed for hours getting to our berth. But we finally made our assigned position, and again there was plenty of work unloading air- craft. But there was one good thing about our two-night stay at Hueneme. Because of a foul-up, we had received no mail after our first stop at Espiritu, and the HOLLANDIA was hungry for letters. They came-and how they came! Some men received 70 or 80 letters, some a bit less, but everyone had plenty of mail to read, some old, some new. And when you're a seagoing man, there is nothing like mail to cheer you up. It shortens the weeks and the miles, for it lets you know that the folks back home are thinking of you, are with you in spirit. From Hueneme we proceeded to Terminal Island at San Pedro for our first availability, We were at ber, and what a madhouse was the I-I0x-I.AIsIDlAl Yard workers took over completely. TINY '1PPCd and they tore. They removed this, installed that, and by the time they had finished, the 97 seemed like a new ship. They installed, Admiral's quarters, and We thought we were going to be made 21.fla85h'P' But we never did get an Admiral. They improved the flight deck, the hangar deck, the sleeping quarters of both officers and men. They prettied up the open bridge. They overhauled the engines. They did everything. It was here that the hrst leave was granted. Six days for the starboard watch, six for port. :BEFORE LEAVING San Pedro we spent two days at a cargo pier, which meant more work for all hands. Then on 21 September we were off to Manus again with more planes and passengers. We reached Manus 10 October, and what a dif- ference! On our first trip to Manus wehad seen a few ships in the harbor. Although Seabees were working like mad, the base still was in a forma- tive stage. But when we arrived the second time, the harbor was just jammed with ships of war. CV's, CVE's, battleships, cruisers both heavy and light, destroyers, transports, and tankers were everywhere. And the base itself really had grown. The Seabees had accomplished plenty. We soon found out that all those warships made up the Third Fleet and that they were about to start on a really important mission. What that mission was we didn't know at the time, but we knew it was big. As it turned out, the Third Fleet was about to steam over to the Philippines for the invasion of Leyte on 20 October. Wfe had no part in that invasion of course, but many of the planes and passengers we had carried out took an important part in the bitter fighting necessary on land and sea before Nimitz's Navy and MacArthur's Army secured that foothold which led to complete liberation of the important islands we had lost at the start of the war against japan. We were at Manus for only two days, but both officers and men were a bit more fortunate in get' fi 'i.4E-IFAWCO' 1 ting on the beach. We had learned much about loading and unloading on our first trip out and we really were in the groove. The Fleet Ofllcers' Club looked like Madison Square Garden the night of a championship fight. Third Fleet oflicers really took over. And they deserved it, because there was hard and bitter work ahead of them. We left Manus 12 October, stopped overnight at Majuro in the Marshalls on the 17th, then went on to the Hawaiian Islands, arriving at Pearl Harbor 23 October. It was our first visit to Pearl. Naturally it was most interesting. The destruction wrought by the Jap sneak attack long since had been repaired, but skeletons of a couple of ships which had been sent to the bottom were visible. But Pearl Harbor was 10070 efficient. We remained overnight, then proceeded to North Island at San Diego, arriving on the last day of the month. Then out again with more planes and passengers on 3 November, to Pearl, Manus, Guadalcanal, and Espiritu, returning to Pearl Harbor on 9 December. ADMIRAL GINDER made his inspection on ll December, and a rigid one it was. He went over the 97 with a fine-tooth comb and he found that we were a clean and efficient ship. Sidelight of the inspection was an incident during the Admiral's review of personnel. It was a hot morning. Admiral Ginder was doing a thorough job, and that meant a slow job. Finally he came to V-3 Division. He hardly had started down the line when there was a thump on the walkway. Art Walsh had fainted and fallen from the flight deck to the hard steel of the walkway, re- ceiving a healthy--or rather unhealthy-crack on the head when he landed. He had to spend nearly a month and a half in two hospitals before returning to duty 27 january 1945. While he was at Pearl, the 97 made its first trip to Ulithi. And Ulithi is another place to which the natives are welcome. We reached Ulithi on Christmas Day 5562, If 411101 .:11. xl Q 12217 - ly Q ANC-if -...1I ' 1- -i-f ,... from Guam back to Pearl. And from Pearl to the States where we had our second availability at San Diego Repair Base. Then back out to Pearl and then to Guam, with more planes and passengers. We returned to Pearl for another stay and from 5 March to 11 March we were in the practice area several miles off Pearl, qualifying squadrons in both day and night landings and takeoffs. Capt. Lee was a master at handling landings and takeoffs, and more than 1000 landings were made on the 97's flight deck. There was one fatality when a plane crashed into the sea. Another pilot took off from the catapult without benefit of the gear when he misread a signal. He took off all by himself using only 80 feet of deck, but smart work on his part brought his TBM through unscathed, although his wheels must have brushed the water. Following these operations the HOLLANDIA again went to Manus, and from there to Ulithi. On this trip we had Marine pilots and planes aboard. After leaving Ulithi we proceeded with three other CVE's to the neighborhood of Oki- nawa. We remained approximately 120 miles south of that island with another of the CVE's while two of them proceeded to within 60 miles, where their pilots flew their planes off to land at an Okinawa airstrip. A Jap suicide plane attacked those first two CVE's but was shot down a few hundred yards from one of them. When the ships re- tired, they passed close to us and reported to Capt. Lee, who was and celebrated the day as happily as was possible in such a place. Then from Ulithi to Guam and BEE. OTC, what had happened. So when we started up, we knew I wJ f LQ? trouble might come our way. But we went up to the same area, 60 miles off the island, without mishap, fiew off our Marines in near-record time, and retired south. During our four days near Okinawa we con- tacted a number of unidentified planes by radar, and one plane sighted was believed to be a Jap Val. But no enemy plane attacked us. Still, there was plenty of fighting in progress both on and around Okinawa while we were up there, so we were in potential danger. And for that operation all personnel aboard the HOL- LANDIA and the ships with us became entitled to wear a battle star on their Pacific Theatre ribbons. We returned to Guam, then to Pearl and back to the States, where Capt. Lee turned command over to Comdr. Brown, having been given a new and important assignment as chief of staff to Commander Fleet Air Wing 18, based at Tinian. Everyone hated to lose Chink, because he had been an ideal skipper, a boss with ability and understanding. HEN A sHoRT TRIP to Pearl, with jim Leslie filling in as Exec. At Pearl our new perma- nent Executive Officer reported aboard--Comdr. Charles Eastman, USN. Comdr. Eastman, born in Winchester, Indiana, 24 August 1914, was grad- uated from St. johns College, Annapolis, Mary- land, in the class of 1934. Entering the Navy, he completed flight training at Pensacola and was assigned to patrol bomber duty in Panama, followed by two years in fighters aboard the old Warp. During this period, on 28 Decem. ber 1940, he married May Shipley of Savage, Maryland. They have one child, Ellen Elizabeth fcalled judyj, now two years old, After lm duty on the Warp, Comdr. Eastman spent two fx. bravery, which probably saved many of us from serious injury, Scott was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Medal. We were off Honshu when the laps quit. Back to Guam to await further orders. We remained there for three weeks. The Navy didn't seem to know what to do with us. We hit the beach often, but there was little to do on Guam, and we became tired of going ashore. While we were there we lost Comdr. Brown as Skipper, Capt. Calvin E. Wfakeman, USN, taking command. Comdr. Brown was given a new post, chief of staff to ComCarTransRonPac. Again we hated to lose our Skipper, for Comdr. Brown had carried on with the ability and understanding that had characterized Capt. Lee. Capt, Wakeman was born 9 june 1904 in Hornell, New York, and was graduated from the Naval Academy in the class of 1927. After duty aboard U.S.S. Wfyozzzizzg and U.S.S. Brlzre. he entered naval aviation, completing flight training at Norfolk and Pensacola. A series of aviation assignments followed, including service with squadrons aboard the old Langley and Lexington. On several occasions he returned to Pensacola as an instructor. In 1940 he was assigned as Executive Officer of the Carrier Training Squadron at Pensacola, later moving to Miami to open the air station for advanced flight training. He served aboard U.S.S. Sawz- foga from 1941 until 1944, when he was de- tached for duty at BuPers. From BuPers he came to the HOLLANDIA. bringing with him a wealth of experience both at sea and in the air. We finally received our orders and on 8 Sep- tember we left Guam for Pearl and then pro- ceeded to the States, where we received another availability at Terminal Island. There bunks were installed on the hangar deck and in every other available space to prepare us for our new duty, that of transporting personnel back from the Far Pacific. HAT ENDS the actual ships history, or as much of it as will appear in this book. But the story of Old 97 would be far from coma plete without a few of the highlights which had so much to do with making ours a happy ship. ff The Chink Lee brand of humor contributed many a chuckle aboard. There was the time we were approaching San Francisco early in the morning. It was rough and foggy and dark. The Skipper called down to radar and told the watch officer to keep a sharp lookout for the Faiallon Islands, because we won't know where we are until we locate them. Shortly thereafter the radar operator called in a contact, gave its range and bearing, and said he thought it was the Farallons. The watch officer called up to the bridge: We have what looks like the Farallons, range so and so, bearing so and so. The Skipper kept up continual calls for ranges and bearings, and they were passed along to him. After several minutes the man on the plotting machine said, I think that contact is a ship. It seems to be moving now. The watch officer wasted no time in calling the bridge. But before he could flip the switch, the light flashed and a bellowing voice was heard: Hey! Those Farallon Islands are now under- way! Capt. Lee had been doing a bit of fast plotting on the bridge and he detected the error as quickly as did radar. I-Ie turned the 97 around on a dime and hightailed it for the west, out of danger. A short time later he called down again: If you can really get the Farallons on that gear of yours, I'll head the ship back in. Soon radar did pick up the islands-the real Farallons that timefand the Skipper headed to- ward Golden Gate. And when the sun had risen and the fog had cleared, the HOLLANDIA was in perfect position to make the harbor in short order, x 'N 1? 1 , fx a 4 c nap! JVSY X' d 4' ,-N 'E XA!

One of the landlubbers, Remil- lard, was practicing semaphore on our first trip out. An expert, way up forward on the flight deck, was sending messages to him. Remillard's position for this informal drill was directly under the open bridge. He was doing fairly well, but finally his partner sent a word he couldn't read. He signaled for several repeats but still couldn't figure out what was being sent. Finally he heard a voice from the bridge calling out the troublesome word. By this time he was quite fed up with himself and without glancing up he growled: Aw, shut up! Then, and only then, did he look to see who was bothering him. It was Capt. Lee. It was hard to tell who was more surprised and shocked, Remillard or the Skipper. Capt. Lee stood there for a long moment, a puzzled look on his face, then turned to the officer of the deck and said: I guess I got told off. I'll go below and mind my business. And as an afterthought: I'll mind my business from now onf' Then there was the time Capt. Lee decided to test out one of his officers of the deck. One day he quietly instructed the helmsman to give three degrees right rudder and keep it there until the 0.0.D. noticed the error and ordered the neces- sary correction. Well, the ship kept turning and turning until ,f 'X GN 'Y it was on a reciprocal course--and still kept turning. That 0.0.D. received more than a thorough dressing-down. He received a new name that stuck: 180-Degrees. Another time Brosnahan had the boatswain's mate watch on the bridge. He was talking about the gals back home, and Capt. Lee inquired: uSay, Bros, just what is the secret of your suc- cess with the women? Does Macy's tell Gimbel's? was the re- joinder. Then there was the officer's order: Drill holes in those wooden boxes, men, so they'll be sure to sink. And the 0.0.D. who didn't know whether he should grant permission to secure the third engine. And another O.D. who called the bugler to blow tubes. Comdr. Brown was an enthusiastic bridge player. One day, while he was Skipper, he and Kristofak were opposing Comdr. Eastman and Doc Oliver. The Skipper and Kris were trailing by about 1000 points and doing their best to get back in the game. The Boss bid his favorite three no-trump. He and Kris went down five, doubled, and that wasn't good. Did it bother the Skipper? He merely turned to Kris and said: ' Kris, a turn of a card and we'd have made six. Darn the luck. One day early in the game the radarmen were asking their officers what they did before entering the service. Walsh said he was a newspaperman. And a voice from a far corner popped up with, How many papers did you have on your route ? Opal Burch, one of the radar gang, tells one on Bill Lewis. Bill called on Burch to run an errand, but as Burch stood up, his non-regulation white socks were revealed. Lewis said Burch wasn't in proper uniform to do the job, and sent another man. The boys in V-3 decided then and there that if they continued to wear white socks it would mean less work for them. fNeedless to say they didn't get away with itlj A I r u ,ff oc Turke had the radar watch on one occasron Radar had .1 plane on the screcn and oe called 1t up to the brrdge rn hrs slow and delrberate New England tashron Bogey bearrng two two zero A pause Drs tance erghteen mules Pause Course zero four zero Pause Speed one erghty Another pause We ve lust rdentrfled that contact as a frrendly plane It wrll pass Wrn Hodge who had the deck broke n Drop rt joe He just passed overhead There was the trme the Arr Department boys were pushmg planes around on the flrght deck durrng loadrng operatrons dorng therr best to complete the job That hard work drdnt seem to rmpress one of the ofhcers up on the brrdge who yelled down to the flrght deck Come on come on there get those planes nn posrtlon The sun s gorng down One of the enllsted men worn out from a full day of tough work turned wearrly and sard Srr 1ts a helluva lot easrer to push these planes around from up there on the brrdge joe Anderson once halted all volleyball act1v1ty whrle he searched for the athletlc olllcer Monk Hodgkrss to strarghten out the darly schedule of athletrcs He srmply approprrated the only ball aboard and carrred rt wrth hrm wh1le he tracked Monk down Those volleyball games were hot and heavy We had a champxonshrp tournament w1th the No 1 olhcers team wlnnrng the honors But the officers had been playrng nearly every day so they really had an edge before the tournament started We had a softball team that was hot It was an enlrsted men s club and comprled a fine record rn splte of drlhculty rn flndlng trme to play We were too often on the hrgh seas But we had one real ace rn the hole Rlcharcl Anderson a radar man who was as good a prtcher as you d expect to frnd anywhere He had speed and control and plenty of stuff on the ball Three and four hrt ters were regular achrevements for hrm Only trouble was that hrs teammates seldom made many more hrts rn a game They lust drdnt play enough to perfect the tlmrng so necessary rn soft 21 NY...-' But they won most of therr games wrth prrn crpal credrt gorng to Andy The basketball team trred hard but they couldnt produce rn satrsfactory fashron Best game they played was therr frnal one at Guam when they battled the USS Penrzrylwznza five down to the wrre only to drop a 32 30 decrsron That fine performance made up rn large measure for some of the drsapporntrng games And rf theyd recerved more practrce they too mrght well have put together a credrtable record agamst other Navy teams We had a track meet on the flrght deck one day see the prctures elsewhere rn thrs book and found the fastest man on the shxp Hartlield a steward whose speed was amazrng He walked away wrth the 100 yard dash and he ran rn hrs bare feet There were shorter SPIIDLS and a relay race but Hartiield was the man that day Capt Lee presented prrzes to all the wlnners BUT or ALL THE HIGHLIGHTS we remember from our months on Old 97 the ones that stand out llke a sore thumb or a sore head are those precrous days ashore on lrberty and leave When Capt Lee learned that Krrstofak and Walsh were plannrng to spend the frrst leave together rn L A he was heard mutterxng that he d have to keep 313300 ready to ball them out Brackeen and a shrpmate of the Frrst D vrsron came back from that leave wxth OPPOSILG complarnts Brackeen s grrpe vms No gals I-1 lf'-lvl What's the use of being an old salt, all slicked up in tailor-mades, he said, when the boots get all the women ? Brackeen's shipmate-who must remain anony- mous-had had too many girl-friends. Or one too many, at any rate. He had gone ashore with 3400 in cash, a good part of which he was going to send home in money order form. But before making the post office he decided to join a couple of pals for a sociable drink-just one drink. When the pals left, he found himself seated next to a good- looker he didn't know. He ordered drinks for her and for himself. He remembers the next half hour or so. After that a large blank. He came to several hours later-alone and in a strange place, with NO dollars in his pocket. The Padre spent his leave in Los Angeles, and apparently he spent it quietly. Not so Kristofak, Alexander, and Walsh. They say that when they were together, single drinks were unheard of. Every drink ordered was a double at least. And one night, in the Zebra Room of the Town House, Vance ordered a quadruple stinger. Ordered it and drank it with- out batting an eyelash. HE HOLLANDIA crossed the equator eight times, the 180th meridian 14 times during our first 16 months as a seagoing Navy ship. We first crossed the equator 24 July 1944 on our first trip to the Far Pacific. It is customary to hold crossing the line ceremonies for all Pollywogs the first time they sail across the equator, but our festivities were delayed because of crowded con- ditions aboard ship. The ceremonies were held on the way back to the States, 18 August. The pictures of the ceremonies will tell the story It is sufficient to say here that King Nep XXXX tune held court and put the poor Pollywogs through some mighty stiff paces before accepting them as Shellbacks of his realm. Capt. Lee and Comdr. Brown were interested spectators and also chipped in with suggestions for special treatment for certain Pollywogs. It goes without saying that their suggestions were for extra punishments, not milder ones. There was no initiation for crossing the Inter- national Date Line, but we were admitted into the Order of the Golden Dragon when we did so. Those crossings were important parts of our Navy life. For one thing, they made us a part of a tradition that goes way, way back. In addi- tion, they helped show us just how big this world is. Because when you reach the equator or the 180th meridian-brother, you're a long, long way from home. During our months at sea up to 1 October 1945 the 97 sailed approximately 120,000 miles. ow, as this book goes to press, the HOL- LANDIA begins its new peacetime career as a personnel transport, under its new Skipper, Capt. Wakeman, who has already demonstrated that his understanding and his interest in his men match his skill as a sailor. Old faces are gone. Joe Anderson has taken over the Engineering Department, Ray Russell is Navigator, Bill Pyromaniac Hutchins has taken Phil Cheney's job as First Lieutenant. Communi- cations are in the able hands of Tony Finger. Dave Rice is Gunnery Ofhcer, Georve Budde Air C Ofiicer. And Comdr. Max Jacobson heads up the Medical Department. But she's still the U.S.S.
