Gheradi Destroyer Transitions Through War Service
Months after Pearl Harbor the Gheradi was commissioned as a destroyer and served on Atlantic convoy duty. It took part in the Sicily and Normandy invasions and the subsequent southern France landings. In late 1944 it became a high speed mine sweeper and fought at Okinawa Took Bay and Tokyo Bay with Occupation Forces in 1945. The vessel remained with the Atlantic Fleet Mine Force for over seven years. Donald L. Baughman, electronic technician seaman first class, son of Mrs. Mary Baughman, was evacuated from the Naval Electronics Technician School at Great Lakes after graduating Handley High School.
