I served on the USS Keokuk a cruiser mine layer and was a radio man. A Japanese bomber dived into our ship off the coast of Iwo Jima. Sixteen sailors were killed and 45 wounded. The bomber dived in our radio compartment and all were killed. I was moved from this area the night before the bombing. Several of our ships had planes dive into them. All the sailors killed were buried at sea off the coast of Iwo Jima.
