A first-hand account of the USS England's accomplishments, written by its commanding officerThe USS England was a 1200-ton, 306-foot, long-hull destroyer escort. Commissioned into service in late 1943 and dispatched to the Pacific the following February, the England and its crew, in one 12-day period in 1944, sank more submarines than any other ship in U.S. naval history: of the six targets attacked, all six were destroyed. For this distinction, legendary in the annals of antisubmarine warfare, the ship and her crew were honored with the Presidential Unit Citation.After convoying in the Atlantic, John A. Williamson was assigned to the England--first as its executive officer, then as its commanding officer--from the time of her commissioning until she was dry-docked for battle damage repairs in the Philadelphia Naval Yard fifteen months
