USS Chandler (DD-206) - Fate

Fate

Chandler returned to the west coast for overhaul in April. While there, she was reclassified AG-108, on 5 June 1945, and after training, she began a tour of towing targets in gunnery exercises for new ships engaged in shakedown training. While performing this important task, she based on both San Diego and Pearl Harbor. After the end of hostilities, Chandler proceeded to Norfolk, Virginia, arriving on 21 October 1945. There she was decommissioned on 21 November 1945, and sold on 18 November 1946.

Famous quotes containing the word fate:

    My fate cries out,
    And makes each petty artery in this body
    As hardy as the Nemean lion’s nerve.

    If you believe in Fate to your harm, believe it, at least, for your good.

    In separation, deadly as poison,
    in union, brimming with nectar.
    What, did fate make my love
    out of both equally?
