Navy Seabee Museum shares Ulithi photos
Kimberlee Roberts, Archivist at the US Navy Seabee Museum in Oxnard, California was kind enough to digitize and share images taken at Ulithi Atoll after the sinking of the Mississinewa. The images were shared with us by John Ratomski who has been researching Ulithi Atoll for several years. His father was a Seabee with the 6th Special Battalion on Asor Island from 8Oct44 through late 1945. Here are a few of those photos.
