Thompson Photo Service (Santa Monica, Calif.)
Shows routes of the U.S.S. Shields in the Pacific Ocean during World War II, 1945 to 1946. During her brief period of active duty, the Fletcher-class destroyer performed mostly escort roles and training exercises around the South Pacific. She was involved in combat only once, shelling Japanese defense on Borneo in support of an Australian attack.
On each side of map are large photographic illustrations of the ship at sea.
Intended as a souvenir for sailors disembarking the ship for the last time.--Bookseller.
