USS Pompon (SS-267)
USS ''Pompon'' (SS/SSR-267), a ''Gato''-class submarine, was a ship of the United States Navy named for the pompon, an American fish of the ''Anisot'' family.
''Pompon'' (SS-267) was laid down by the Manitowoc Shipbuilding Co., Manitowoc, Wisc. 26 November 1941; launched 15 August 1942; sponsored by Miss Katherine Mary Wolleson; and commissioned 17 March 1943, Lt. Comdr. E. C. Hawk in command.
On 5 April 1943 ''Pompon'' began her voyage down the Mississippi River to New Orleans in a floating drydock. Stores were loaded at New Orleans and she sailed for the Pacific.
== First war patrol, July – August 1943 ==
''Pompon'' steamed from Brisbane, Australia on 10 July to conduct her first war patrol in the Truk area. Only a few days out, a Japanese submarine fired two torpedoes at her, both passing ahead. Besides patrolling off Truk, ''Pompon'' formed a scouting line with other submarines to cover 7th Fleet operations. On 25 July she seized the opportunity and torpedoed 5,871 ton cargo ship ''Thames Maru''. In the same action two more attacks damaged a second transport and also a smaller transport. Numerous patrol boats and another enemy submarine were evaded, and Pompon returned to Brisbane 22 August.
