Reseña del libro "The Ghost Ship (en Inglés)"

The GHOST SHIP was launched in 1940, prior to World War II, she helped supply the Pacific Islands with men and material, one of those was the "Alamo of the Pacific" Wake Island. She was anchored northwest of Ford Island on December 7, 1941, shot down several Japanese planes, and helped sink a mini sub. She had a storied record during the Second World War, earning seven battle stars from Guadalcanal Canal to Okinawa. She was one of the last ships to be hit by a Kamikaze off Okinawa. It hit the cabin of Air Officer Lt. Henry Fonda. In 1943 Bob Hope and his USO group performed on the Curtiss. Readers will learn about the "secrecy" that went on in the Atomic Energy Commission and other agencies that occurred during the post war years.
