Summary
DescriptionUSS Pennsylvania moving into Lingayen Gulf.jpg |
English: The U.S. Navy battleship USS Pennsylvania (BB-38) leads USS Colorado (BB-45), USS Louisville (CA-28), USS Portland (CA-33), and USS Columbia (CL-56) into Lingayen Gulf before the landing on Luzon, Philippines in January 1945. Battleships and other big gun naval vessels that served in the Pacific Theatre during World War II were used primarily for offshore bombardment of enemy positions and "as anti-aircraft screens for aircraft carriers." The wartime censor has removed Pennsylvania´s radar antennas. |
