Container Summary
This is a book of medium-size format, hard cover, glossy paper, heavily illustrated, similar in style and appearance to a college yearbook. It outlines the cruise to the South Pacific of the escort carrier Bairoko inlate 1945, returning in 1946. Because the war had already ended before the vessel left California it records no action.
