World War II

[edit]

Ordered thence to San Francisco, California for reconversion, she reverted to DD-196 on 20 July 1945 and was later decommissioned at that port on 3 October 1945. George E. Badger was scrapped on 3 June 1946.

According to a document on page 188 of To War in a Tin Can: A Memoir of World War II Aboard a Destroyer by James H.Patric the Badger was decommissioned at Terminal Island (San Pedro), California on 3 October 1945. Also the book indicates her conversion back to a destroyer was done in Long Beach, California rather than San Francisco. - Foggy Dayz 9/25/10 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Foggy Dayz (talkcontribs) 22:27, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
