No, they don’t! I read a book about demography recently, and the author cited statistics about the Baby Boom, which occurred not only in the United States but through Europe, included occupied Germany. It also observed that religious participation coincided with the increase in the birthrate.

Isn't it a bit far and dangerous for a little inter-islands steamer to be sailing to the Philippines?At this stage in the war I would think it a bit dangerous for a carrier task force with BB escort to sail to the Philippines.

Good point. The Philippines are about to become the center of the Pacific conflict.

Re:US Coast Guard Vessel ....The War was over on the 15th of August 1945. So, going to the Philippines on August 30, 1945 is no big deal.

Re: Coast Guard Ship...It was commissioned in May of 1944, but the trip log printed here was for August “1945”... not 1944.
