Inaugural performed its duties with distinction. It participated in the invasion of Okinawa, served as a patrol ship in additional battles in the South Pacific, and escorted ships traveling between Hawaii and islands in the Western Pacific. After the war, Inaugural conducted minesweeping operations in the waters around Japan and Korea. By the end of its career, the vessel had cleared 82 mines and was awarded two battle stars for service during World War II.
In August 1993, during flooding of the Mississippi River, Inaugural broke loose from its moorings at the Gateway Arch. The ship suffered a breach in its hull, took on water, and rolled on its side. It has remained in that position and partially submerged since that time.
Some great artwork along the floodwall down here. They used to have a event down here called "Paint Louis" that's where it comes from and I do not know if they still have the event.
