Sept 25, 1944 - Left Aitape for Morotai. Passing New Guinea all morning. Evening. Passed Hollandia. Picked up two more LSTs making eight LSTs, three destroyers and a DE in our convoy. Will probably pick up more ships at Maffin Bay. Two ships cut through our convoy and we liked to have had a collision. We also liked to have run into one of the LSTs in our convoy.
