Shipwreck
Discovered in 1965, it is a few hundred yards east of N-buoy
facing east at a depth 110' in Kwajalein in Southern Atoll. There is a gun mount on the bow, the
forecastle was a crews quarters and is full of personal effects and
the remains of bunks.
Forward Hold
The forward hold is empty aside from a MG and several barrels
that were probably knocked loose from the deck. A second MG is on the
side of the deck forward of the bridge. The midship was gutted by fire.
The Bridge
The bridge has several narrow tunnels and passageways. Controls, the
wheel and telegraph were removed by divers. The engine room can be entered
from the aft hold by swimming over a large unexploded bomb.
The Stern
Contains cables and ropes. The stern is blown apart, possibly
from the ships own depth charges lying around the stern and lagoon nearby.
