USS Rolf (DE-362) : ウィキペディア英語版 | USS Rolf (DE-362)
USS Rolf (DE-362) was a John C. Butler-class destroyer escort acquired by the U.S. Navy during World War II. The primary purpose of the destroyer escort was to escort and protect ships in convoy, in addition to other tasks as assigned, such as patrol or radar picket. ''USS Rolf'' was named in honor of Robert Walter Rolf who was awarded the Navy Cross for his brave actions at New Guinea. She was laid down 20 March 1944 by Consolidated Steel Corp., Orange, Texas; launched 23 May 1944; sponsored by Mrs. Martha M. Rolf, mother of ''Lieutenant (Junior grade) Rolf''; and commissioned 7 September 1944, Lt. Comdr. Lester E. Hubbell, USNR, in command. == World War II Pacific Theatre operations == Following shakedown off Bermuda, she departed Norfolk, Virginia, 30 November and reached San Diego, California, 5 December. ''Rolf'' then sailed for the southwest Pacific Ocean and escorted a convoy from Hollandia, New Guinea, to Leyte Gulf. The ship subsequently operated under the Philippine Sea Frontier, and from May to August was part of a hunter-killer group at Subic Bay, Philippine Islands. Just prior to the close of hostilities, ''Rolf'' participated in a search for enemy midget submarines believed to be operating northeast of Casiguran Bay, Luzon.
