USS Luzon Ash Tray This is a rare piece of WWII history. The USS Luzon was a USS River gunboat in the Pacific Theater. When the gunboat was in Manila Bay just after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor the gunboat was cornered an was purposely sunk to prevent capture. Then in late May, 1942, Luzon was salvaged by the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN), and repair begun at the 103rd Repair Facility. The river gunboat was fatally torpedoed in the Philippines by the USS Narwhal on 3 March 1944. This is a true RARE piece reading "USS LUZON ARG 2"
