About USS Gambier Bay (CVE-73)

USS Gambier Bay was a Casablanca-class escort carrier that served with distinction in the Pacific Theater during World War II. The ship achieved legendary status during the Battle off Samar on October 25, 1944, when she and other escort carriers of "Taffy 3" faced overwhelming Japanese battleship and cruiser forces. Despite being outgunned, Gambier Bay and her escorts fought heroically before the ship was sunk, becoming the only U.S. aircraft carrier lost to enemy surface gunfire during the war.
