Summary
Description |
English: Returning veterans of the Pacific fill the hangar deck of the U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Enterprise (CV-6) as it stopped in Pearl Harbor, Territory of Hawaii, preparatory to moving to the United States. Enterprise sailed to Pearl Harbor in late August 1945, returning to the States with some 1,141 servicemen due for discharge, including hospital patients and former prisoners-of-war. She then sailed on to New York on 25 September 1945 via the Panama Canal arriving on 17 October 1945. From November 1945 to January 1946, she transported returning servicemen from Europe. |
