Description

Leyte arrived at Sasebo, Japan, on 8 October 1950 and after reporting to Commander, Seventh Fleet, was engaged in combat operations the next day. From 9 October 1950 through 19 January 1951, the ship and her aircraft spent 92 days at sea and flew 3,933 sorties against North Korean targets. Her first strikes against targets in Korea were in support of landing operations around Wonsan. In the course of her deployment, Leyte’s pilots accumulated 11,000 hours in the air while inflicting massive damage upon enemy positions, supplies, transportation, and communications. Having supported the Wonsan operations in October, her squadrons conducted bombing raids against the bridges over the Yalu River between North Korea and China.
