"Thanks for your trouble in locating the 4 photos of the USS LaGrange APA-124. My father was killed in this suicide attack on Aug 13, 1945. Our family never knew about what the ship went through and about Dad's death...21 killed 8 hrs before the Japanese knew they were through. It was the last suicide plant that hit an American ship. This has meant so much to my brother (who was 12), my sister (6yrs) and me (10yrs old at the time). Thank you for caring."

You opened a whole new chapter in our Dad's life. He was a WWII vet and like so many, never spoke of his experiences or answered any of our questions. When we gave him the photos of his ship and shipmates, he was thrilled and through grateful tears spoke of that part of his life. THANK YOU!  THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!"

"Any of the pictures in the log your are welcome to add to your collection. The color picture of the Sarge (USS Sargent Bay CVE-83) in the first part of the log was given to me when I boarded the ship in San Pedro, June 1944. The log only goes up to August 1945 when the ship returned home after a 13 month tour of duty. There were two primary VC squardrons, VC79 and VC83. From Nov 1944 until Dec 1945 the ship was on what was called, "oilier duty".  My ship and other carriers like mine provided sub protection as we edcoted from 10 to 15 oilers which refueled Halsey fleet during the Palau invasion up through MacArthur's return to the Philippines. In De 1945, VC79 departed. During this period, hundreds of take-off's and landings were made on a very small deck only a little more than 500 feet. VC83 came aboard in Jan. 1945. Our orders were to proceed to Iwo Jima where our pilots would provide support for the Marines. Our carrier was first to appear on the invasion and the last one to leave. After Iwo, our orders were to proceed to Okinawa. It was in this invasion that the Japs went all out with the suicide pilots. One plane made a dive on our ship and a photographer on the USS Saginaw Bay captures the plane in its dive.  Your father did what I have always wanted to do. Good luck on your enterprise." 

Jerry W., Newhall, CA.
