May 1, 1945

1-st _____ This morning Mobile moved closer to island & we started to Bombard. ____ (Mobile was told that we had no certion amount to fire _ when our Amm ran out we could always get more.) This afternoon we could see flame t[h]rowers on beach burning out the Japs. We could also see a large number of buildings burning, caused by ship bombarding & our planes bombing. 1700 (5PM) we moved births & five inch fired most of the night.
