I was looking around the Naval History and Heritage Command site and found this:

https://www.history.navy.mil/research/library/online-reading-room/title-list-alphabetically/r/recollections-of-uss-pampanito-rescue-of-prison-ship.html" rel="nofollow - https://www.history.navy.mil/research/library/online-reading-room/title-list-alphabetically/r/recollections-of-uss-pampanito-rescue-of-prison-ship.html

I don't remember this being here before. If it has, well here it is again

FYI, there are more first person accounts from the crew of the rescue linked at the bottom of Pampanito's history page:

pekelney,

Thank you for the info. I have been to the Pampanito's site several times. Just never found that page.
