YOKOSUKA OCCUPATION Continued The 4th Marines from the l.ANlER, after hitting the beach, deployed to cut off the peninsula which protrudes from the southern tip of the Bay. Cargo un- loading proceeded very slowly at first, due to lack of facilities on the beach, but the next day American trucks, caterpillars and cherry-picker cranes had the stuff moving along very well indeed. On l September Task Unit 30.3.5 got underway for Saipan. lt consisted of the following ships: GRIMES lO.T.C.l, MERI- WETHER, BRAXTON, WAUKESHA and LANIER, with BANGUST and KYNE as es- corts. The group arrived on 6 September, refueled and took on troops.
