Japan surrenders...
Item # 698285
August 14, 1945
U.S.S. Cimarron AQ-22, Queen Of The Oilers, Radio Press News - 15 August, 1945" Not so much a "camp newspaper" as it's appearance would suggest, but more a special announcement piece reporting: "JAPAN SURRENDERS" as noted on the front page.
The balance of the "issue" is taken up with typewriter-set reports concerning the surrender.
Included as well is: "What Happened To The Cimarron - AQ22 Commencing January 1, 1945" with a full account of its actions.
Also included is a small photo of the ship, printed on the reverse: "U.S.S. Cimarron Oct. 21, 1945 Taken in Tokyo Bay."
Ten pages, 8 by 13 inches, various chipping at some margins, a few archival mends, stapled at the top, some wear.
