Several days later we shot down a suicide plane while anchored there in the inlet. I was the sightsetter on the 5 inch gun that shot the plane down. We hit it on our third shot and it splashed into the water just shy of an LST, its target. The plane's original target was our Neches but, after the first shot, it turned and headed toward the LST. My memory tells me it was on April 7th."
