On September 2, 1945, ships of the United States Pacific Fleet rode at anchor in Tokyo Bay. A scant month
passed since an American B-29 had dropped the first atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima, and now
the representatives of the Emperor were assembling abroad an American ship to sign formal surrender documents.
The ship chosen to be the scene of this historic signing was one of this nation’s most powerful naval vessels, the
U.S.S. MISSOURI. She was the last of four Iowa class battleships, and was completed in June of 1944. The active
combat operations of the MISSOURI included the period from the two Iwo Jima landings in February of 1945 until
the close of hostilities in September.
With the outbreak of hostilities in Korea, the Mighty Mo was again in action, cruising in Korean waters from August
1950 until April 1951. She participated in numerous actions, including bombardments of the Korean Peninsula.
Now, along with her sister ships, New Jersey, Wisconsin and Iowa, she rides quietly at anchor, a part of the great
mothball fleet.
The MISSOURI was built at a cost in excess of $100,000,000 and has an overall length of 887 feet 3 inches with
a bean 108’. Her main batteries, consisting of nine 16 inch guns have a range of 23 miles, and she has a variety
of smaller guns including 20 five inch, 80 forty millimeter, and 50 twenty millimeter. She has a speed of 33 knots,
and is powered by geared turbines that develop 212,000 shaft horsepower. In wartime her crew consisted of 2,700
officers and men.
After the surrender documents were signed, a plaque was placed in her deck just forward of the conning tower
on the starboard side, to mark the spot. A miniature replica of this plaque is included in your kit, and on it you will
see the following: “Over this spot, on 2 September 1945 the instrument of formal surrender of Japan to the Allied
Powers was signed, thus bringing to a close the Second World War. The ship was at that time at anchor in Tokyo
Bay.” Around the lower half of the plaque is inscribed, “Latitude 35° 21’ 17” North, Longitude 139° 45’ 36” East.
This indicates the ship’s actual position in Tokyo bay.
Although modern naval tactics have made the battleship all but obsolete, and these giant beauties have been
relegated to history, the U.S.S. MISSOURI will always remain, along with the other ships of her class, the pinnacle
of battleship development. It is not likely that the world will ever again see the likes of the MIGHTY MO.
Le 2 septembre 1945, des navires de la flotte du pacifique des États-Unis étaient à l’ancre à Tokyo Bay. Un petit
mois avait passé depuis qu’un B-29 américain avait largué la première bombe atomique sur la ville japonaise
d’Hiroshima et maintenant les représentants de l’Empereur étaient rassemblés sur un navire américain pour signer
les documents officiels de capitulation.
Le navire choisi pour devenir la scène de cette signature historique était l’un des navires les plus puissants de la
marine, le U.S.S. MISSOURI. C’était le dernier des quatre navires de combat de classe Iowa et il fut complété en
juin 1944. Les opérations de combat actif du MISSOURI comprenaient les périodes des deux largages sur Iwo
Jima en février 1945 jusqu’à la fin des hostilités en septembre.
Avec la flambée des hostilités en Corée, le “ Mighty Mo ” connaissait l’action à nouveau, en naviguant dans les eaux
coréennes entre août 1950 et avril 1951. Il a participé dans de nombreuses actions, incluant les bombardements
de la péninsule coréenne. Maintenant, avec ses navires jumeaux, le New Jersey, le Wisconsin et l’Iowa, il se
rendait doucement à l’ancrage, pour faire partie de cette grande flotte en gardiennage.
Le MISSOURI a été construit à un prix excédant les 100 000 000 $ et il a une longueur de 887 pieds et 3 pouces
avec une largeur de 108 pieds. Ses batteries principales, consistant de canons de 16 pouces ont une portée de 23
milles, en plus d’une variété de plus petits canons, incluant 20 canons de cinq pouces, 80 de quarante millimètres
et 50 de vingt millimètres. Il peut atteindre une vitesse de 33 nœuds et il est propulsé par des turbines à engrenage
qui développent 212 000 HP sur l’arbre. En temps de guerre, son équipage consistait de 2 700 officiers et membres
d’équipage.
Après avoir signé les documents de capitulation, une plaque fut placée sur le pont juste devant la tour de
