Shellhammer In States

Howard D. Shellhammer, 20, cleo
trician's mate, third class. 1898
Twenty-third, had chalked up, with
other crewmen Of the aircraft car
rler USS Hancock, as impressive
record as just about any ship of
the Fleet, before calling it quits
IL the Pacific and returning to the
States for Navy Day.
Though "Fightin' Hannah" looks
peaceful enough now at her moor
ingS in home waters, her appear
ance bellies a hectic career of 10
months in the battle zones, during
which her planes destroyed 723
enemy aircraft, IA warships and 81
merchant ships Her anti-aircraft
guns have 10 'notches" for that
many planes knocked down.
Commissioned in April, 1914, the
Hancock wasn't ready to join the
3rd Fleet until October, 1914, but,
from that day, she left the Japs
Keeling from Wake Island to Hok-
kaido. Included in her fighting
itinerary were Okinawa, FormoSa,
Luzon, Two Jina, Tokyo, Honshu
Kyushu, Hokkaido, Leyte, Hong
Kong, and Kobe Harbor.
Her record is the more impress
SiVe because she had been twice
knocked out of action, but only
temporarily. She continued opera
tons after the end of hoStilities,
covering occupation troops. Her last
mission was to drop food and sup
plies to Americans in priSoner-of-
war camps.
The Hancock is credited with
downing the last Japanese plane
attacking Allied Naval forces in the
war.

COVERS MORE THAN
10000 SEA MILES

ABOARD THE LIGHT CRUISER
VICKSBURG, SANTA CRUZ, Cal.
Thomas Michael Vareha, "a, ma
chlnlSt's mate, first class, USN, 1898
Seventh street, had left 10000 miles
OF sea travel behind miles cover
ing operations in which this ship
contributed 975 tons of projectiles
to the defeat of Japan-when the
VlckSburg took part in the observ-
ance of Navy Day here Oct. 81.
The cruiser had made the trip
back from Tokyo Bay, where she
had dropped anchor at the end of
hoStilitieS to take part in the occu-
patton Of the japanese homeland.
One of the high spots of the
Vicksburg's war career was the Two
lima campaign. On D-Day in that
operation, the cruiser, standing
only 1900 yards off-Shore, fired her
guns so rapidly that the paint was
burned off the barrels.
At Okinawa, her gunner's were
called upon for some of the most
accurate shooting of the war when
they threw thousands of rounds in
support of the Armys advancing
troops, some of her targets lying
only 500 to 800 yards ahead of the
invasion forces.
In another action, close to the
enemy'S homeland, the Vicksbure
had to dodge torpedoes and bombs
that came too close for comfort
while flares turned the night into
day, but she came through without
a Scratch-ard with eight Jap
planes ckalked up to her credit.
