ABSTRACT (Continuaen reverse. ide Itneces.s.a and id.nsfy by block numbe,) The Operation Plan covers and outlines the pertinent missions and tasks of Task Group 7.1. It also is intended as a guide to assist personnel in planning and carrying out their individual tasks since it represents a record of agreements arrived at prior to its compilation. DD t 1473 EDITION 0 1 NOV 6$IS OBSOLETE UNCLASSIFIED "SFCURITY CLASSIFICATION OF THIS PAGE (ien Data Entereed) FOREWORD This report has had classified material removed in order to make the information available on an unclassified, open publication basis, to aiy interested parties. This effort to declassify this report has been accomplished specifically to support the Department of Defense Nuclear Test Personnel Review (NTPR) Program. The objective is to facilitate studies of the low levels of radiation received by some individuals during the atmospheric nuclear test program by making as much information as possible available to all interested parties. The material which has been deleted is all currently classified as Restricted Data or Formerly Restricted Data under the provision of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, (as amended) or is National Security Information. This report has been reproduced directly from available copies of the original material. The locations from which material has been deleted is generally obvious by the spacings and "holes" in the text. Thus the context of the material deleted is identified to assist the reader 4n the determination of whether the deleted information is germane to his study. It is the belief of the individuals who have participated in preparing this report by deleting the classified material and of the Defense Nuclear Agency that the report accurately portrays the contents of the original and that the deleted material is of little or no significance to studies into the amounts or types of radiation received by any individuals during the atmospheric nuclear test program.

    DD‐649 U.S.S. ALBERT W. GRANT By Terrence P. McGarty and Elaine (Carlson) Dorland DD-649 1 Common Men, Uncommon Valor By Terrence P. McGarty and Elaine (Carlson) Dorland DRAFT 1 Copyright © 2007 Terrence P. McGarty and Elaine Dorland, all rights reserved. "Among the Americans serving on Iwo island, uncommon valor was a common virtue." (Adm. Chester A. Nimitz). “Uncommon valor was the normal reaction and bravery beyond the call of duty was the normal response.” (Captain Andy Nisewaner) Page 2 of 397 Page Deliberately Left Blank Page 3 of 397 THE SECRETARY OF THE NAVY WASHINGTON The Secretary of the Navy takes pleasure in commending the THE UNITED STATES SHIP ALBERT W. GRANT for service as follows: “For outstanding heroism in action against enemy Japanese forces during the Battle for Leyte Gulf, October 24 to 27, 1944. Conducting a determined torpedo attack against a Japanese task force in Surigao Strait on the night of October 24, the U.S.S. ALBERT W. GRANT closed range to fire her first half salvo of torpedoes and succeeded in scoring hits on a Japanese battleship. Although severely damaged when heavy enemy guns opened fire as she turned to retire, she remained in the battle area and successfully launched her five remaining torpedoes, scoring hits on other enemy units. With all power gone, fires raging, compartments rapidly flooding and over one hundred casualties to care for, she fought throughout the night to remain afloat. Finally, assisted by a tug from Leyte, she effected the repair of her crudely patched holes and the pumping out of excess water and oil, resolutely continuing damage control measures until she could be taken in tow to an anchorage in Leyte Gulf.
