>> Cimarron reached San Francisco 1 April 1942 and sailed the next day

with the task force bound for the first air raid on Tokyo 18 April. With USS Sabine (AO-25),

they fueled the Fleet at sea before and after (Doolittle's B-25 Raid) ...<<

 

>>The 16 B-25s were craned aboard at Alameda, and the ship headed west two days later. Well into the Pacific on 12 April, the Hornet task group rendezvoused with Halsey’s Enterprise and her screen several hundred miles north of Midway. “The Big E’s” aircraft would conduct most of the scouting and combat air patrol until the Army bombers were launched, as the Hornet’s deck was necessarily locked.<< See: http://www.usni.org/magazines/proceedings/story.asp?STORY_ID=138

I appreciate that behind every great historical leader, there's an equally great woman:
Louise Tennent Harrington Leahy!
As a pioneering "social network" analyst, I'm researching the "back story" about how the first three Cimarron-class "fast fleet oilers" commissioned during 1939 were named in the sequence suggested by CNO William D. Leahy's trusted advisors.

 

They appear to be named after pre-Civil War "Kansas Territory" watersheds

Mission:

The U.S.Navy Museum is the flagship museum of the United States Navy. The U.S.Navy Museum collects, preserves, displays and interprets historic naval artifacts and artwork to inform, educate and inspire naval personnel and the general public. Docents are essential to the Museum's mission.

 

Docents help shape the public's perception of the Museum while they interpret the collection and educate the public about the Navy's role in history. Docent training is held every two-three years. Sign-ups for the next docent training session will begin in July 2006.

                ======================

 

As 1965 Jayhawker Magazine Yearbook KU-Alum, I began adapting magazine-format "media arts" while BEING a novice (USNR-A) Public Affairs Officer (PAO) aboard USS Cimarron (AO-22) during 1967-1968. While I didn't realize it then, I became an "EarthSea-Keeper" of the "future thought leadership" of Louise Tennent (Harrington) Leahy who sponsored CIM during 1939!

 

>> Louise Tennent Harrington was born on 15 Feb 1876 in Marysville's  She appeared in the census on 7 Jun 1900 in Colusa Township.9  She appeared in the census on 29 Jan 1920 and again on 3 Apr 1930 in Washington, D.C.35 36  She died on 21 Apr 1942 in Vichy, France. Louise Harrington & William Daniel Leahy were married on 3 Feb 1904 in San Francisco, California. <<

Leahy's wife, Louise Tennent Harrington, died in 1942 in France,
