I served on the hospital ship Benevolence (AH-13). We were the hospital ship for the 40,000 sailors who served during Operation Crossroads, July, 1946. The first post war atomic bomb tests. Baker test was an awesome display of the power of an underwater atomic blast, as this picture certainly indicates.
