On the June 9th raid, the Dixie carried General W.F. Marquat. The crew consisted of :
2nd Lt. R.R. Hatch
2nd Lt. C.A. Soffern
2nd Lt. G.D. Barnhill
1st Lt. N.A. Wright
Corp. R.I. Slater
Corp. Rorbinson
Corp. J.F. Shemberger.
I do not know why thy were carrying the general. Perhaps as an observer or perhaps they were transporting him.

The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.
