One of these old girls split in two while tied to a dock in the US in the early 1950s. It was raised, welded back together and continued its service into the Viet Nam era.
I can't find a reference to the name of the ship but my dad told the story and believed it to be true.
Our family was stationed in Japan in the 50s...
E.D. Patrick: From San Fran to Seattle and then onto Yokohama Harbor in 1957. Took 18 days because of searching for a downed plane and typhoon.
If memory serves me right, E.D. Patrick was mothballed in Suisun Bay, then sold to India for scrap.
