[edit]Description |
English: The decommissioned U.S. Navy destroyer escort USS George A. Johnson (DE-583) after it ran aground in October 1966. She decommissioned in September 1957 and entered the Pacific Reserve Fleet at the Mare Island Naval Shipyard, California (USA). Her name was struck from the U.S. Navy List on 1 November 1965 and she was sold for scrap. While being towed to San Diego for scrapping on the night of 12-13 October 1966, George A. Johnson broke free from her tow cable and ran aground at Sharp Park Beach, Pacifica, California. After attempts to refloat her proved unsuccessful, she was cut up and scrapped onsite over a period of six months. |
