The first QDD287j .commis- sioned in 1919. operated with the Atlantic Fleet and was scrapped in 1931. A second PUTNAM QDD757j was launched 26 March 1944 at Bethlehem Steel in San Fran- cisco. Commissioned on Columbus Day, PUT- NAM sailed for the war zone on 30 December 1944. She was not to reenter the Golden Gate for ten years. PUTNAM won her first battle star in the Iwo Jima landings on 19 February, and SECNAV Forrestal chose her to ferry him to Guam four days later. From Guam PUTNAM led a convoy to Leyte and to Okinawa, where another battle star was earned in the invasion. Except for a quick trip to Ulithi, PUTNAM - now flagship of COMDES- RON 66 - remained at Okinawa from Easter Sunday until 1 July, and she rescued 114 sur- vivors of TWIGGS victim of a kamikaze. PUTNAM then joined Task Force 58, whose aircraft cleared the East China Seaof Japanese shipping. A third battle star was PUTNAM's reward. When hostilities ceased PUTNAM joined in the occupation of Japan. Services as rescue ship and escort, and riding out a typhoon in Tokyo Bay kept the crew busy until they sailed for home in December. Home for Christmas' was the goal, and PUTNAM reached San Diego on the 22nd, After Christmas leave PUTNAM left the West Coast, travelling through the Panama Canal to Brooklyn Navy Yard for overhaul. PUTNAM operated out of Newport and Pensacola until April 1947. From 1947 until 1949, PUTNAM-flagship of COMDESRON 2-participated in Mediter- ranean, Arctic, and Reserve cruises. Off Israel in the summer of 1948, PUTNAM was the first U, S. Navy vessel to fly the United Nations flag. Entering Charleston Naval Shipyard in De- cember l949, PUTNAM was decommissioned on COMMANDING OFFICERS CDR L. Lefelar August 1945 CDR G. D. Hoffman August 1946 CDR D. M, Swift July 1947 CDR W. V.

The Korean War brought PUTNAM back into commission in Charleston 23 October 1950. COMDESRON 22 hoisted his flag, and PUTNAM, out of Norfolk, made Mediterranean and Mid- shipmen cruises until August 1952. Atlantic operations and an overhaul in Philadelphia Naval Shipyard preceded PUTNAM's departure on her round-the-world cruise.

Though the war's wreckage has not yet disappeared, the city is building slowly to its prewar sophistication. Jai alai, gambling, din- ing and dancing - all in sumptuous surround- ings. American influ- ence is visible every- where- the automobiles, the advertisements, the commodities in the shops. Yetin the streets there is poverty, and outside the city bands of guerillas make travel unsafe. There is tension as well, for next week are the elections, and hope that a new admin- istration will bring brighter tomorrow. -.,'.-- .- .. -- ...lr-.
