Everett was commended for outstanding courage and meritorious service in helping with the rescue of personnel after the disastrous explosions and fire which occurred aboard the Leyte.... ___________________________________________________ In 1951, Leyte returned to the Atlantic, where she spent the rest of her career in service. There were two more deployments to the Mediterranean between 1951 and 1953, and then was converted to an anti-submarine support and reclassified as a CVS-32. In the Boston Naval Shipyard in 1953, she was in the process of being converted when there was an explosion and fire. This killed 37 men and injured dozens more. However, she still returned to duty in 1954 and worked in the Caribbean and Atlantic for the next five years.
