1OO-PIane Jap Raid
off GuadaIca Ends
Gallant Destroyer
Victim Of April 7 Attack
Had Most EnviubIe
Combat Record
By B, ]. McOUAID,

War Correspondent of The Star and
The Chicago Daily News
AT A SOUTH PACIFIC BASE,
April 23-Delayed After the at
tack, they fought for six hours to
keep her afoat. When she finally
went under, her young skipper,
Annapolis, class of 81, who had
been directing salvage operations
from his flying bridge, went under
with her.
''They were shouting at him from
rescue tugs" said the destroyer's. a.
year-old gunner officer. Her bow
was out of the water, her stern
had settled and she had 26-degree
list.
"As she began the final plunge,
people on the tugs yelled, she is
coming over, captain! She is COM
ing Overt, Our skipper stood there,
gripping the rail. The water was
reaching for his chin. The last
words we heard from him were a
warning to be sure we all had our
iAlCJdShCCS. 1llCl oOWh SllC WClll,
taking him along"
Fought Way To Surface.
Somehow the skipper fought his
way back to the surface after being
carried to a great depth and was
rescued. He and the other surviv-
ors reached this base from where
some will go back to the States, but
most will be transferred to other
ships.
Their destroyer was one of the
few victims of the l00-plane Jap
raid in the Guadalcanal region on
April 7. Her sinking wrote fms to
one of the most gallant combat
records credited to any destroyer.
In November night engagement,
she exchanged shots with Jap
battleship and then helped sink an
enemy cruiser and two destroyers
after taking several direct hits from
14-inch guns.
She also had engaged in a num-
Der of daring daylight bombardment
missions against Jap shore positions
in the Solomons, had been under
air attack several times and been
straddled by shore guns. On April
Z, six dive-bombers hit her at 3
o'clock in the afternoon, scoring
one direct hit and several near
misses. The direct hit killed a
dozen in the after engine room and
it, plus the near-misses, put all en-
gineS out of commission and left
her dead in the water without power
for her pumps.
Hauled Close To Shore.
The tireless heroism of her own
people and the tugboat crews kept
her up until after 9 o'clock when
she had been hauled within 600
yards of the Tulagi shore and safety.
A second Jap air raid directed at
shore positions was in progress as
she went under. In the afternoon
attack, her AA gunners shot down
one attacking dive bomber and set
two afire.
Abandon ship, hell said her
executive officer. "We would never
have abandoned that ship We
thought too much of her. We
stayed abroad until she abandoned
us"
Twenty-seven of her company are
! listed dead or missing. At least
seven are believed to have gone
down with the ship, still fighting to
keep her afloat
Her mission in the area was the
protection of a huge barge laden
with valuable cargo. The barge sur
vived unchanged.
