Hi, the book 'Blood on the Sea' by Robert Sinclair Parkin ISBN 1-885119-17-8, discribes all USN destroyer losses in WW2. Prior to her loss she was at Pearl Harbour October 42, and was part of cover for TF 61, Aircraft Carrier Enterprise, Battle ship South Dakota, Cruisers Portland, San Juan and the destroyers Porter, Mahan, Preston and Smith. Later she took part in providing cover for US troop landings at Guadalcanal in November 42, being part of TG 67.4, with the cruisers San Francisco, Helena and Juneau and destroyers Laffey, Sterett, Buchanan, Shaw, Gwin and Preston, the following action saw her eventual loss.Regards John
