Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The U.S. Navy attack transport USS Logan (APA-196) off Iwo Jima, in February 1945. She is painted in Camouflage Measure 32, Design 6A. Note the damaged bow after a collision with USS Napa (APA-157). On the morning of the 21 February, Napa was rammed by Logan at about 0445h. The resulting hole in her hull, frames 98-102, was 4.5 m feet long and extended down to a point 3 m beyond the turn of the bilge. Fast action on the part of the crew and even among the evacuees limited flooding to No. 4 hold, and prevented ary fires from breaking out in that hold which contained high octane gas.
