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.

Some More on the USS APc-25

From Wikipedia.

The U.S. Navy Special Collections & Archives has two declassified Ship Action Reports regarding the APc-15 dated from August 1943.

The first report, dated 15 August 1943 pertains to the rescue work of the APc-25 following the sinking of the USS John Penn on 13 August 1943.

The second report dated 18 August 1943 deals with enemy aircraft attacks on the ship.

These reports are written by the ship's commander, John D. Catrano.
