This declassified deck log page from USS Renshaw (DDE-499), dated 26 December 1952, documents a routine day of Task Force 77 screening operations off Korea that turned dramatic in the final watch, when the ship broke formation to rescue survivors of a burning, downed PBM patrol plane. Five men were pulled from the water suffering exposure and burns, while one was lost. Such deck logs offer an unfiltered, hour-by-hour record of naval operations and the human stakes behind them during the Korean War. Project: 218134
