Chicot cleared San Pedro 27 April 1949 for cargo duty in the islands of the western Pacific, to Pearl Harbor and to Japan. Guam was her base until 24 July 1951, when she was decommissioned there and transferred to the Department of the Interior. Her ultimate fate is unknown.

Famous quotes containing the word final:
“It is in the nature of allegory, as opposed to symbolism, to beg the question of absolute reality. The allegorist avails himself of a formal correspondence between “ideas” and “things,” both of which he assumes as given; he need not inquire whether either sphere is “real” or whether, in the final analysis, reality consists in their interaction.”
—Charles, Jr. Feidelson, U.S. educator, critic. Symbolism and American Literature, ch. 1, University of Chicago Press (1953)
