Summary

Description
English: The U.S. Navy escort carrier USS Admiralty Islands (CVE-99) off the California coast, 30 August 1945. Following a deck fire, the carrier reached San Diego, California (USA) on 11 August, then sailed to San Pedro to undergo repairs and alterations. The majority of the alterations where cancelled because of Japan's surrender; and, following completion of essential repairs, Admiralty Islands sailed on 1 September to become a member of the "Magic-Carpet" fleet for assistance in the return of American troops to home.
