USS Missouri docked in Pearl Harbor, Honolulu, Hawaii

            The End of the War in the Pacific 1944
In July, the battleship joined Task Force 34 and aircraft carriers for more strikes against mainland Japan, bombarding the steel works at Muroran and Hokkaido and other industrial targets at Honshu. 

In August, the war was drawing to a close. Task Force 38, with Flagship Missouri at its heart, fended off a final assault of kamikaze aircraft on 9 August. On 15 August, Halsey received word of Japan’s surrender. By 23 August, USS Missouri was confirmed as the surrender ship.
