USS Midway Plank Owner's Certificate

 

USS Saint Lo (formerly Midway), CVE-63 Plank Owner's certificate, dated October 23, 1943. The second ship to be

named Midway, the Saint Lo was renamed when it was decided to give the name Midway to a larger fleet carrier. The

Saint Lo was lost during the Battle Off Samar on October 25, 1944 after being hit by a kamikaze. (Courtesy of Herb

Ruelke, Jr., who purchased the certificate at a yard sale in Idaho for .50 cents. Herb said "I just could not see history

get thrown away after the yard sale. A lot of good men served with that ship and it would be a shame to throw it out.")
