The combined efforts of all who manned me at Okinawa is what gave me the reputation .... Of all the iightin' CVE's, the fightinest of all is the SII-WANNEE. I am mighty proud of all handsf' It took a lot of work to get the job done at Okie. After Okinawa I steamed down to Borneo. After that opera- tion, back to Leyte . . . then Buckner Bay. There, with the war over,'l on August l2, at dusk, a low, slow plane Hew close to me to smack the USS PENNSYLVANIA lying 3,000 yards off my starboard bow. I could distinctly feel the Hjoltf' It made me shudder. . . I thought of Leyte. On September 14th, after covering minesweepers off Kyushu, I steamed into beautiful Nagasaki harbor. During my l0 day stay there, all hands had an opportunity to see the atomized section of Nagasaki. From all the stories I have heard, that part of the city is really leveled, scarred, charred, roasted and toasted. September 28th, my hook dropped in Wakayama harbor. Everyone always said I would do it some day and . . . sure enough . . . October lSth, I steamed into Tokyo Bay. During my 7-day stay, all hands had at least one chance to visit the Nip capital. Pretty soon Illl be getting all of you back to Uncle Sugar. I know you're anxious to get there. Now when you do go down the gangplank don't forget to say goodbye to me. And if you listen closely you'll hear me say to YOU: HWELL DONE . . . GOODBYE AND GOOD LUCKY'
