Several months were required aft- er the commissioning for installation lof the latest equipment and for fur-! ther training of the crew. Some were old bluejackets, including survivors of the third Atlanta, while others had been assembled and trained be- fore the ship was ady, but practice and drills were necessary so that the crew could work as a unit and be ready lo handle any emergency arising. In March 1945, all was ready and the ship sailed from the United States to join the fleet at an unan- nounced -destination. Operating with the famous Task Force 38 and other fast carrier for- ces during the Okinawa and Japa- nese campaigns, she participated in three bomtcardments of the Japanese home islands and entered Tokyo Bay shortly after the Japanese sur- render. There, she served as part of | the ¥aval Occupation of Japan and | carried the flag of Commander, Na- val Forces, Kyushu. In over 160,000 nautical miles of steaming, the USS Atlanta has call- ed at almost every port from Trini- dad tc Shanghai, including the land “down under.” At present she is as-, signed to Commander Cruiser Divi- cion Fifteen and has just completed | a tour of duty in the Far East. Ex- isting plans indicate that the ship will remain in a fully ready active status in the active fleet. .- the food is so good at the clubs, he the next day demanding that Rus-.sides.
