The second St. Paul (CA-73), ex-Rochester, was
laid down on 3 February 1943 by the Bethlehem
Steel Co. Quincy, Mass.; launched on 16 September
1944; sponsored by Mrs. John J. McDonough; and
commissioned on 17 February 1945, Capt. Ernest H.
von Heimburg in command.
After shakedown in the Caribbean, St. Paul
departed Boston on 15 May 1945 and headed for the
Pacific. From 8 to 30 June, she underwent training
out of Pearl Harbor and sailed on 2 July to join
Task Force 38.
This fast carrier striking force completed
replenishment at sea on the 23d and then proceeded
to launching points for strikes against Honshu,
Japan's largest island.
Between 24 July and 10 August, St. Paul screened
the carriers as they delivered heavy air strikes
on Kure, Kobe, and the Tokyo area in southern
Honshu, then at Maizuru and various airfields in
northern Honshu.
During this period, St. Paul also bombarded
industrial targets: first on textile mills at
Hamamatsu during the night of 29 July, and then on
9 August at iron and steel works in Kamaishi,
firing the war's last hostile salvo from a major
ship.
Typhoon warnings canceled air operations on 11
August until the 14th. Then, those launched that
morning were recalled, after peace negotiations
gave promise of Japan's surrender. On the 15th,
all offensive operations against Japan were
stopped.
St. Paul, with other units of the 3d Fleet,
retired to the southeast to patrol the coast while
awaiting orders.
On the 27th, she steamed into Sagami Wan to
support United States occupation forces.
On 1 September, she entered Tokyo Bay and was
there during the formal surrender ceremony
the next day.
St. Paul remained in Japanese waters for
occupation duty until she was ordered to Shanghai
on 5 November to become flagship of TF 73. She
navigated the Whangpoo River, anchored off the
Shanghai Bund on 10 November, and remained there
until late in 1946.
Returning to the Naval Shipyard, Terminal Island,
Calif., on 1 October, she was overhauled to
prepare for additional Far East duty. From 1
January to 15 February 1947, she conducted
refresher training at San Diego.
Following her return to Shanghai in March, St.
Paul resumed operations as flagship for CTF 71
until returning to the United States in November.
Next, came training operations along the west
coast, including cruises for Naval Reservists
during April and May 1948. From August to December
of that year, she deployed to the western Pacific,
serving in Japanese and Chinese waters.
Back in the United States, she was converted from
catapult to helicopter configuration before
serving again in the Far East from April through
October 1949.
When hostilities broke out in Korea in June 1950,
St. Paul was conducting a midshipman training
cruise from San Francisco to Pearl Harbor. She
disembarked the future naval officers and
proceeded late in July to the western Pacific
where she joined Task Group (TG) 77.3 on
patrol in the Formosa Strait. St. Paul remained on
patrol between Formosa and mainland China from 27
August to 1 November.
She then moved north into the Sea of Japan to join
carrier TF 77, and commenced combat operations off
the northeast coast of Korea on 9 November.
On the 17th, she provided gunfire support to the
United Nations troops advancingon Chongjin.
That day, shrapnel from a near miss by a shell
from a Communist shore battery injured six men at
gun mount stations.
The cruiser destroyed the enemy emplacement with
counter-battery fire and continued her support
mission.
As the Chinese Communists began massive attacks
late in November, United Nations forces commenced
a general withdrawal to consolidate and hold south
of the 38th parallel. St. Paul provided close
support for the Republic of Korea I Corps on their
east flank as they withdrew from Hapsu, and along
the coast, as they retired from Chongjin.
On 2 December, she moved north again, conducted
night harassing missions above Chongjin, then
moved south to support the withdrawal of the
Republic of Korea Capital Division to Kyongsong
Man. She entered the harbor at Wonsan on the 3d to
provide a curtain of shellfire around that
city as United Nations forces and equipment were
moved to Hungnam;then followed the forces there,
and remained to cover the evacuation of that
city and harbor between 10 and 24 December.
From 21 to 31 January 1951, St. Paul conducted
shore bombardment missions north of Inchon where,
on 26 January, she was again fired upon by shore
batteries.
On 7 April, in special TF 74, with destroyers
Wallace L. Lind (DD-703), and Massey (DD-778),
landing ship-dock Fort Marion (LSD-22) and high
speed transport Begor (APD-127), St. Paul
helped to carry out raids on rail lines and
tunnels utilizing 250 commandos of the 41st
Independent Royal Marines.
These highly successful destructive raids slowed
down the enemy's resupply efforts, forcing the
Communists to attempt to repair or rebuild the
rail facilities by night while hiding the work
crews and locomotives in tunnels by day.
St. Paul returned to the United States for yard
work at San Francisco from June to September,
then conducted underway training before sailing
on 5 November for Korea.
She arrived off Wonsan on 27 November and
commenced gun strike missions. During the
following weeks, she bombarded strategic points at
Hungnam, Songjin, and Chongjin.
In December, she served as an antiaircraft escort
for TF 77, and, following a holiday trip to Japan,
returned to operations off the coast of North
Korea.
In April 1952, St. Paul participated in combined
air-sea attacks against the ports of Wonsan and
Chongjin.
On the 21st, while the cruiser was engaged in gun
fire support operations, a sudden and serious
powder fire broke out in her forward 8-inch
turret.
Thirty men died.
Before returning to Japan, however, she carried
out gun strikes on railroad targets near Songjin,
during which she captured nine North Koreans from
a small boat.
Following a brief stay in port and two weeks on
the gun line, she headed home and reached Long
Beach on 24 June.
On 28 February 1953, St. Paul departed the west
coast for her third Korean tour and was in action
again by April.
In mid-June, she assisted in the recapture of
Anchor Hill. With battleship New Jersey (BB-62),
she provided close support to the Republic of
Korea army in a ground assault on this key
position south of Kosong.
The cruiser was fired upon many times by 75 and
105-millimeter guns, and observed numerous near
misses, some only ten yards away.
But on 11 July at Wonsan, she received her
only direct hit from a shore battery. No one was
wounded, and only her 3-inch antiaircraft mount
was damaged.
On 27 July, at 2159, she conducted her last gun
strike and had the distinction of firing the last
round shot at sea in the war. The shell,
autographed by Rear Admiral Harry Sanders, was
fired at an enemy gun emplacement.
The truce was effective at 2200. St. Paul then
commenced patrol duties along the east coast of
Korea.
St. Paul returned to the western Pacific again in
May 1954; and, later that year, she was on hand
when the Chinese Communists were threatening
the Nationalist Chinese islands of the Quemoy
group. Between 19 November1954 and 12 July 1955,
she operated with the 7th Fleet in Japanese and
Chinese waters, particularly between Taiwan and
the Chinese mainland, playing a major role in
protecting United States interests in the Far
East.
She returned to Long Beach for repairs and
overhaul, but was back in the western Pacific from
15 August 1955 to 10 January 1956 serving
as flagship for the 7th Fleet.
St. Paul returned to Long Beach in February and
subsequently moved to
Bremerton, Wash., for upkeep and overhaul. In
September, she became flagship for the 1st Fleet
and entertained the Secretary of the Navy
during a fleet review at Long Beach. She departed
that port on 6 November; and, after refresher
training at San Diego, arrived at Yokosuka, Japan,
on the 29th to relieve Rochester (CA-124) as
flagship of the 7th Fleet. She spent most of her
time in Keelung or Kaohsiung, Taiwan, with periods
of training in the Philippines and port calls at
Buckner Bay, Hong Kong, Manila, and Sasebo.
On 26 April 1957, she headed home.
St. Paul arrived at Long Beach on 21 May and
subsequently cruised along the west coast, as far
north as Seattle, until she sailed once more on 3
February 1958 for the Far East. She made an
extensive cruise beginning at Pearl Harbor.
Thence she steamed to Wellington, New Zealand;
proceeded past Guadalcanal and north through the
Solomons to New Georgia; visited the Carolines;
and ended at Yokosuka on 9 March.
She repeated her past WestPac deployments with
duties as flagship, and exercises in the
Philippines, before returning to Long Beach on 25
August.
Sailing from Long Beach on 4 May 1959, St. Paul
became the first major United States Navy ship to
be homeported in the Far East since pre-World
War II days. Based at Yokosuka, she did not return
to Long Beach until 39 months later. Then, she
assumed duties as 1st Fleet flagship and did
not return to WestPac until 1965.
From that year, she made five successful
deployments with the 7th Fleet in operations off
North and South Vietnam, providing gunfire support
to allied troops.
Reminiscent
of her Korean operations, St. Paul was hit on 2
September by a shell which struck her starboard
bow, near the water line. None of her crew
was injured; and her engineers repaired the slight
damage, enabling her to continue her mission. For
her splendid record of service in helping
to combat Communist aggression in South Vietnam,
St. Paul earned the Navy Unit Commendation and two
Meritorious Unit Commendations.
At San Diego on 7 December 1970, St. Paul began
inactivation procedures.
She sailed to Bremerton, Wash., on 1 February 1971
where she was decommissioned on 30 April and was
placed in reserve with the Puget Sound Group of
the Pacific Reserve Fleet.
St. Paul earned one battle star for World War II
service, eight battle stars for Korean service,
and eight battle stars for Vietnam service.

At present I am searching for a source of navy ship photos. Namely, USS Saint Paul. CA73, USS Manchester CL83, USS Iowa BB61, USS Shangri-La CVA38, USS Lexington CVA16. Looking for 9 X 12 black and white photos.
