Comments: Plank Owner; 1951 Recommissioning. Two Med Cruises 1951 and 1952. Lead Machine Shop Petty Officer 1952-53. I saw the "Terrible T" at her home port in San Diego; she does not look like the old CV40 we knew. I am pleased she is still in service. She may outlast me! Best wishes to all who served on this memorable veteran.

It's mission during the war, any battle information, is it still in
service etc . . I'd would love to get some kind of biography of the
ship to keep in my book collection.
Do you know where I can find information on it ? Any information will be
greatly appreciated, thank you !

CAG-10(before it became ATG-201).
We received the Presidential Unit Citation for NEVER missing a
sortie over Korea!!
We were sending at least six groups of four aircraft over the
peninsula each day we were "on-the-line"; Meaning while we were in
the Sea of Japan. We, usually spent 10 days "on-the-line" and 10
days in Yokosuka for repairs. We often needed new wood for the
flight-deck after our banged-up aircraft came back!
We had three other squadrons aboard and rescue aircraft.
