USS Earl V. Johnson (DE-702)


USS ''Earl V. Johnson'' (DE-702) was a of the United States Navy, named in honor of Lieutenant (j.g.) Earl V. Johnson (1913–42), a naval aviator who was awarded the Navy Cross posthumously for "extraordinary heroism" during the Battle of the Coral Sea.
''Earl V. Johnson'' was launched on 24 November 1943 at the Defoe Shipbuilding Company, in Bay City, Michigan, sponsored by Mrs. Selma E. Johnson, mother of Lt.(j.g.) Johnson, and commissioned on 18 March 1944, with Lieutenant Commander J. J. Jordy, USNR, in command.
Between 23 May and 19 November 1944, ''Earl V. Johnson'' made three voyages as convoy escort, guarding vital troops and supplies travelling from Norfolk to Casablanca and Bizerte. After training at Boston, Massachusetts, she joined the Pacific Fleet, calling at New York, Norfolk, the Panama Canal, Bora Bora in the Society Islands, and arriving at the giant fleet base at Manus, Admiralty Islands, on 22 January 1945.
''Earl V. Johnson'' was assigned patrol duties in the Philippines, and guarded convoys plying between New Guinea and Leyte Gulf until 17 April 1945. Supporting the invasion of Okinawa, now in full swing, and air strikes on Japan, she became invaluable in moving men and supplies to the advance bases at Kossol Roads and Ulithi. She departed Leyte on 25 July with an LST convoy bound for Okinawa. As she returned, on 4 August, a sonar contact developed into a 3-hour duel with a submarine, which damaged ''Earl V. Johnson'' but ended favorably with an underwater explosion and a plume of white smoke.
With hostilities ended, ''Earl V. Johnson'' arrived at Okinawa on 4 September, and a week later, began the occupation of Jinsen and Taku, piloting vessels, guarding against submarines, and spotting and destroying mines. She departed Buckner Bay, Okinawa, on 8 November 1945, arriving at Boston on 15 December.
She was placed out of commission in reserve at Jacksonville, Florida, on 18 June 1946.
''Earl V. Johnson'' was stricken from the Navy Register on 1 May 1967, and sold on 3 September 1968.〔 K. Jack Bauer and Stephen S. Roberts, ''Register of Ships of the U. S. Navy, 1775–1990'', p. 231.〕
