NICHOLS MEMBER OF
SOUTHLAND CREW
Charles R. Nichols, gunner’s
mate seaman is in the Far East
with the Blockading and Escort
Force aboard the radar picket de
stroyer USS Southerland.
Seaman Nichols is the son of
Mr. and Mrs. B. C. Nichols of
Route 4, Newberry. His wife the
former Miss Martha Davis resides
on Route 3.
The Blockading and Escort
Force patrols and blockades the
North Korean Coast and conducts
shore bombardments.
During this tour the Souther
land will also serve with fast air
craft carrier Task Force 77. The
ship may also cruise down to Fo-
mosa and Hong Kong.
This is the third cruise to the
Far East since the outbreak of
the Korean conflict. On its sec
ond tour the Southerland hurled
hundreds of rounds of 5-inch shells
at the foe along both coasts of Ko
rea.
The Southerland sailed west
ward from San Diego, Calif., her
home port, to commence this
cruise on the 21st of March. A
week’s stop was made at Pearl
Harbor, T. H., for anti-submarine
and gunnery exercise, giving the
crew the opportunity to see Hono
lulu and Waikiki.
When the Southerland steams
into Tokyo Bay enroute to Yoko
suka it will be returning to the
scene of a past triumph—for the
Southerland was with the USS
Missouri in Tokyo Bay in 1945
when the Japanese signed the Sur
render.
