H/3/5 Embarked on USS HORACE A. BASS APD-124--Inchon Landings

Comments: To all veterans of "How" Company...My name is Roy Baugher III, and I worked at the History Museum of Western Virginia, in Roanoke, VA. I am conducting research on the U.S. Navy ship USS HORACE A. BASS APD-124, its history and the history of its crew and military units embarked on her, especially during the Korean War. The research I am doing is in connection with the Museum's current exhibit, "Ships & Shipmates," with features the histories of the ships named "Roanoke," plus a display of local Roanoke citizens who served, or are currently serving, in the U.S. Navy. One of those Roanoke citizens was Ensign Horace Ancel Bass, Jr., USNR, who was born, raised and lived in Roanoke. Bass was a fighter pilot (Grumman F4F-4 "Wildcat") in the Pacific Theater during WWII. He was in VF-3 at the battle of Midway and in VF-5 at the battle of East Solomon Islands in 1942. He was reportedly shot down at the latter battle and was not recovered from the water. He was declared MIA. Bass was awarded the Navy Cross for his actions at Midway in November 1942, even while listed as MIA. He was then declared presumed dead in 1943. In 1944 the Navy Dept. announced it would name a new fast attack transport in his honor, the USS HORACE A. BASS APD-124. The ship went on to serve in the Okinawa Campaign during WWII and later in the Occupation of Japan afterwards. It would then later see service throughout the entire Korean War. For the landings at Inchon, H Company/3rd Battalion/5th Regiment/1st Division U.S. Marines were embarked on the H.A. BASS, and it was her LCVPs that carried "How" Company in, spearheading 3rd Battalion's assault.

I would like to contact any veterans of "How" Company who were embarked on the H.A. BASS for the Inchon landings, so I can obtain more information about "How" Company's experiences aboard the ship and about the Inchon operation itself. I have written a questionnaire asking about your experiences both on the ship and also about the landings themselves. If you can help and would like to participate, please e-mail me or write to me at: History Museum of Western Virginia, ATTN.: Roy Baugher III, P.O. Box 1904, Roanoke, VA 24008. Any help or information you can give would be deeply appreciated. Thank you for your time and service to this country. I remain, sincerely, Roy Baugher III
