Notes:
Comparing the above to a list of ships received from D. Kindell, based on Arnold Hague's research, I find that A. Hague has not included McClellan Creek in this convoy.

No further details are available.

Escorts (Received from Don Kindell - His source: The late Arnold Hague's database):
USS Blair
USS Brough
USS Hammann
USS Jacob Jones
USS Robert E. Peary
USS Sturtevant
They all joined on Aug. 3-1944 and remained until Aug. 13.
