Charles Lorain Carpenter wilkinsburg, pennsylvania ' ' Chuck ' '  Kid Carp CHUCK came to us from Pitt. There he was a member of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity and a track man of no mean ability. It happened in the course of his track career that he once had occasion to visit the Naval Academy. Here for the first time in his life he saw mid- shipmen, blue-and-gold clad midshipmen; so fine, and so sportsmanlike were these midshipmen that Carp gave his Congressman no rest until he had been made one of them. Carp ' s biggest roles at the Academy were track, hops, and cold showers. Coincidently, in track events his competitors run with him; at hops, the drags run after him; and in his after-reveille showers, the cold water runs over him. So we adjudge him the Naval Academy ' s champion all-round runner. Socially, with his ready smile, he gets bv big. Physically, one need onlv ask to see his numerous medals. Mentally, he laughs at the Academic Department while his roommates bilge. And morally, he goes to Chapel every Sunday whether he has to or not. " Oh, say, Carpenter, have you heard the latest? " " No, what is it? " " Why, there is a track meet the Saturday before Easter. " " Well, I ' ll be darned. And I wanted to go home for Easter Leave.

Memoirs of George Albert DeLong
( 26th June 1922 - 22nd March 2002 )
...
Perhaps the most vivid memory of the November 13 battle occurred at approximately 11.00 in the morning after the battle was over. Five of the six ships that survived the battle intact enough to steam under their own power had been collected by Helena's Captain Hoover to head back to Espiritu Santo. The ships were the San Francisco, Helena, Juneau, Fletcher and Sterett. The sixth ship, the O'Bannon, had been sent ahead to radio a message to Admiral Halsey.

On the Helena, Captain Hoover had secured the ship from General Quarters and set a condition that called for standing one four hour watch on duty and four hours off. My assignment was on the bridge in the pilot house as helmsman. While steering the ship I had the opportunity to glance out the port holes and I saw the condition of the San Francisco and the Juneau. I remember commenting to one of the men in the pilot house that the San Francisco look so beat up that she would be lucky to make it back to Espiritu Santo, but that the Juneau, while she was down by the bow, still looked seaworthy enough to make it back

Shortly thereafter, however, Lt. Comdr. Carpenter, the ship's navigator, who seldom left the bridge, shouted, "Hard right rudder, DeLong." I spun the rudder over hard right and started singing out the course changes every ten degrees. I glanced out the port hole as the bow swung past the line of sight to the Juneau who had been on our starboard quarter in the formation. The ship was swinging at a rapid speed now and I had no idea what was going on.

Suddenly, Comdr. Carpenter hollered, "Hard left rudder." I reversed the rudder, but the momentum was still carrying the ship to the right. The ship shuddered for several seconds and slowly started to turn left when an immense explosion took place. I glanced out the port hole and all I could see was a huge cloud in the direction the Juneau had been.

By this time the Helena was making good time through the water again and picking up momentum heading straight for the cloud. The wheel was still turned hard left and I had no idea where either the Juneau or the San Francisco were. Total silence reigned in the pilot house and on the wings of the bridge.

Now it was my turn to shout! "Where is she? Where is she? Where is she? I don't want to ram her!" Everyone was out on the wing of the bridge except me and no one other than myself was talking.

Finally, one of the sailors stuck his head in the door and quietly said, "DeLong, she ain't nor more." I didn't fully understand what he meant but I decided to ease the rudder lest it bang against the stops and get stuck. I was a little late but in time enough to keep the rudder from jamming. There was a jolt as the rudder hit the stop, but it was light enough so there was no jamming.

The people that had gone outside now filled me in with what had happened. The Juneau didn't sink; she was blown up. Everyone had seen pieces of her flying through the sky. The largest piece was reported as one of her five inch gun mounts flying over the Helena.

Captain Hoover wisely decided to save all the ships he could and decided not to stop to look for survivors - no one though there would be any. Even if there were, the subs might still be around and more ships and men could be lost.

As a footnote to this event, many years later, I ran across Lt. Comd. Carpenter (by that time Admiral Carpenter) at a Helena reunion and he filled in some details that I hadn't known. We were seated across from each other at a dinner table. We were all telling sea stories and I started telling them my story - (I had forgotten that it was Commander Carpenter who had issued the orders to the wheel). Right in the middle of my story Carpenter looked at me and said, "And do you know who issued those orders?" When I admitted that I didn't remember, but wished that I could, he replies, "I did." The minute he said that, I remembered.

From that point on he took over the story. He told us that in the early part of his career he had taken special training on spotting and tracing torpedo wakes and that was one of the reasons he felt a little safer when he was on the bridge in treacherous waters. As a result of his early training he was the first one to see the wakes of the two torpedoes coming from the port side. Both torpedoes went between the Helena and the San Francisco and when both ships turned, the torpedoes went past us and one of them hit the Juneau. We were not able to warn the Juneau in time to save her.

some of the enlisted men were permitted to have their families with them when
the ship sailed from Guam.  Each loop took about seven weeks, visiting Manila,
Hong Kong, Shanghai and in Japan, Miki-Ko, Nagasaki, Kobe, Nagoa, and Yokohama.
Dottie's life-long associations were in Maine, where she and Charlie spent long
summers in their residence at Goodwins Mills.

Memorial #: 178016230
Bio: She was born to William Randolph Carpenter and Helen Williams Carpenter in Marion, Kansas. Precious son, Laurence "Ward" Simmons, beloved husband, M. D. "Bud" Morris, M.D., sweet grandson, Ward William Cox, and both parents who she loved so dearly predeceased Jeanne. Left behind to cherish her memory: husband Andrew Johnson, children and their spouses, Tom and Madilyn, Julie and Allan, Nancy and Clay and Anne and Tim, as well as 11 grandchildren, Alison McGrath (John) Carson, C.B. (Kris) McGrath, Barbara Morris; Erin Plourde(Erik) Covington, Lindsey Plourde (Jason) Gianoukos; Callie, Casey and Claire Cox; Christopher, Curtis (Lauren) and Tim Cox Jr. Jeanne is also survived by 12 great grandchildren, J.T. and Tucker Carson; Kate, Addison and Hunter McGrath, Emma and Evan Covington: Sophia and Reid Gianoukos: Carlee Cox: Charlotte and Samantha Cox. She is also survived by her brother, William Randolph Carpenter (Joan Sehdev M.D.) as well as her niece Carolyn Carpenter (Michael) Frieschling and nephews Randolph (Julie) Carpenter and Charlie Carpenter. Jeanne had an idyllic childhood, growing up in Marion, graduating from Marion High School before attending Bradford College, Haverford, Mass. where she was first in her class. She completed her education with a degree in English at the University of Kansas where she was a member of Gamma Phi Beta sorority and was awarded the University French Scholar Award. Despite her academic excellence as shown by her election to Phi Beta Kappa Society, her father sent her to Chicago to study at Katherine Gibbs Secretarial School to ensure her ability to be an independent and modern young woman. Jeanne always said she never again wanted to experience the cold she felt blowing off of Lake Michigan!Jeanne’s devotion and involvement in First United Methodist Church of Topeka spanned over a half a century. Her steadfast Christian faith was firm but gentle. Her lifetime of volunteerism in community organizations included being the first woman elected to the Board of Directors of Stormont Vail Hospital, Treasurer; Junior League of Topeka, Gold Rose Recipient; Western Sorosis, President; Mulvane Art Center, Docent; P.E.O., President; Topeka Medical Auxiliary, Meals On Wheels delivery driver for many years, Gamma Phi Beta House Corporation, Topeka Zoo, Topeka Round Up Club, Garden Club, and Kansas Historical Society. An endless scholar and seeker of knowledge, she continued to take every French class available at Washburn University. She was an avid Jayhawk basketball fan, being a season ticket holder for decades. In later years, she found the couch more comfortable than the bleachers and gathered with old friends to yell, cheer and scold the officials via T.V.Jeanne was a successful businesswoman, co-owning Morris-Simmons ladies shop for many years. She enjoyed gardening, reading, tennis and golf. Jeanne was into health and fitness long before it was cool. She loved to start her day with the 3-mile walk with her friends, the Knollwood Walkers. On Wednesdays, short of nuclear war, she could always be found at French Club. Jeanne was a tireless and energetic traveler whose curiosity took her around the globe - many times with her precious grandchildren, creating priceless memories. Jeanne was an accomplished horsewoman beginning as a young girl and taking her last ride at 78 years young. She shared this love of horses with her children and grandchildren. She welcomed foreign exchange students into her home for years and treated them as her own. Gracious, brilliant, beautiful, loving, patient, kind, thoughtful, humble and endlessly generous with her time, efforts and gifts, she will be in our hearts forever.
