  • After six days of shore bombardments of the island of Leyte in the Philippines, USS Portland withdrew to join the battleship and cruiser force tasked with intercepting Japan's Southern Force in the Surigao Strait. Portland was part of the force that crossed the "T" of the Japanese force and directed most of her fire against the cruiser Mogami. After the decisive victory in the Surigao Strait, Portland returned to Leyte Gulf and prepared to fend off Japan's Center Force, then engaged with Task Force 77.4.3 in the Battle off Samar. ww2dbase [Philippines Campaign, Phase 1, the Leyte Campaign | Portland | Surigao Strait, Leyte | DS]

  • Beginning late the night before, destroyers USS Waller, USS Saufley, USS Renshaw, and USS Pringle transited the Surigao Strait and bombarded shore targets in Ormoc Bay, Leyte. Upon retiring shortly after midnight, the destroyers detected a Japanese submarine on the surface. All destroyers opened fire with their 5-inch/38 caliber guns and the submarine sank by the stern (some sources suggest this was submarine I-46 but others content Yu-2 is more likely). The destroyers then returned through the Surigao Strait into Leyte Gulf. ww2dbase [Pringle | Waller | Saufley | Renshaw | Ormoc Bay, Leyte | DS]
