Summary
| Description |
English: In 1942, cargo ship USS Alhena (AK-26) was hit by a torpedo from the Japanese submarine I-4. The crew quickly got the fires under control and then used sheets of plywood to construct temporary bulkheads. The Alhena was back in service 8 months later after being repaired and converted into an attack cargo ship (AKA-9). |
