Historical Information
USS Gilbert Islands (CVE-107) was built by Todd-Pacific Shipyards at Tacoma, Washington, and commissioned on 5 February 1945. During the final months of World War II she operated in the western Pacific, launching strikes against Japanese targets and supporting the Australian landings at Balikpapan, Borneo, before helping cover fleet replenishment and occupation operations near Japan. She earned three battle stars for World War II service. Recommissioned during the Korean War era, she later became the communications relay ship USS Annapolis (AGMR-1) and served during the Vietnam War. The ship was finally decommissioned in 1969, struck from the Naval Vessel Register in 1976, and sold for scrap in 1979.
