The log covers the period from early April 1945 through June of 1945. The boat had been shipped from unknown location to Colombo Harbor, Ceylon; Sri Lanka today.The first 8 pages can be easily skipped but from then on, one gets a good view of maintenance and preparation of the boats for duty. Much of it is very routine. Skipper was 1st Lt. J. Alan Cross. Original log made available courtesy of Robert Frankovich of the AAF/USAF Crash Rescue Boat Assn. and scanning services provided by the Genealogical Society of Palm Beach County.
