USS Hilbert (DE-742) : ウィキペディア英語版 | USS Hilbert (DE-742)
USS ''Hilbert'' (DE-742) was a built for the United States Navy during World War II. She served in the Pacific Ocean and provided escort service against submarine and air attack for Navy vessels and convoys. She returned home after the war with eight battle stars, far more than the average for destroyer escorts. She was named in honor of Ernest Lenard Hilbert who was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross posthumously after being shot down during the Battle of Midway. The ship was launched on 18 July 1943 by the Western Pipe and Steel Company; sponsored by Mrs. Fern Hilbert Wier, sister of Aviation Ordnanceman Hilbert; and commissioned on 4 February 1944, Commander J. W. Golinkin, USNR, in command. == World War II Pacific Theatre operations== After shakedown out of California ''Hilbert'' departed San Francisco, California, on 13 May 1944 escorting a transport. Arriving Pearl Harbor on 20 May, she proceeded to Kwajalein and joined the U.S. 5th Fleet. From June through August ''Hilbert'' screened the fueling group of Admiral R. K. Turner's Northern Attack Force for the capture of Saipan and Tinian. The Marianas were stoutly and bitterly contested, requiring great flexibility and fortitude before our fleet conquered the rugged and well-defended islands.
