On Pennsylvania
III Price Aboard Ship When
Japs Made Attack Two
Days Before Peace

1t. Tom Price, USN, son of Mr..

USS Pennsylvania when the jap

mole in the ships side, leaving 20
men killed or missing. The huge
battle wagon was caught una

:, according to the official COM
nuniCue:
THE ship they once called the
Quickest battle wagon in the fleet,

the dawn of peace with her stern

fighting to keep her afloat. Her
luck had run out suddenly and
aragically two nights previously
when a lone Jap plane pressed
taome an attack which opened a
gaping death strewn hole in the
Pennsy's side. So as the voice of
aer Skipper, Capt. w. M. Moses,
USN, told Pennsy's crew of ia
pans surrender there was no
wild jubilation, no noisy rejoic-
ang such as occurred on many
ships. There was, instead, a quiet
feeling of joyful relief tempered
with sorrow for those shipmates
who had given their lives when
peace was so nearly won. There
was reverence, too, as tired men
at pumps and guns and in water
soaked compartments bowed their
7sneads in moment of silent pray
ar for those who had lost their
lives in this war; then turned
