The Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships describes the sinking as follows:
The Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships describes the sinking as follows:
::Barry was towed to the anchorage at Kerama Retto 28 May and found too extensively damaged to warrant repair or salvage. Stripped of useful gear, she was decommissioned 21 June 1945. Later in the day she was towed from the harbor of Kerama Retto to be used as a decoy for the kamikazes. While under tow she was attacked by Japanese suicide planes and sunk along with her escort, LSM-59.

  2. ^ Barry, see 21 and 22 June
  3. ^ The Naval Historical Center listing states that Barry (APD-29) was "damaged by Kamikaze attack off Okinawa, Ryukyu Islands, 25 May 1945, and sunk as a decoy, 21 June 1945." This description does not make clear how Barry sank on June 21, 1945. The Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships describes the sinking as follows:
    Barry was towed to the anchorage at Kerama Retto 28 May and found too extensively damaged to warrant repair or salvage. Stripped of useful gear, she was decommissioned 21 June 1945. Later in the day she was towed from the harbor of Kerama Retto to be used as a decoy for the kamikazes. While under tow she was attacked by Japanese suicide planes and sunk along with her escort, LSM-59.
    There is another account of the sinking: Kimball (2007), crewmember of fleet tug USS Lipan (ATF-85), tells the story of the sinking of Barry by a kamikaze plane:
    The USS Barry was an old four-stacker Destroyer commissioned around 1920 and modernized and converted into a high-speed troop transport and reclassified as an APD. It took some hits and was intentionally run up on the beach to avoid sinking in deep water and it spent sometime just sitting there. The High Command was experimenting with methods of defending against the relentless kamikaze attacks by the Japanese pilots and it was decided to use the Barry as a decoy to attract the suicide pilots. Since Barry was stripped of all usable equipment its hulk was expendable. Lipan's divers put a soft patch on the hull of the Barry and its interior was filled with empty sealed 5" ammo containers. It was hoped the sealed containers would act as flotation gear and make the Barry less vulnerable to sinking from direct hits. The Barry was fitted with remote controlled flashing lights that looked like anti-aircraft gun muzzle flashes from the air. It also had smudge pots placed at strategic locations and remotely controlled to simulate stack smoke and damage from attacks. From the air it looked like a fully operational Destroyer and it was intended to draw the kamikaze pilots to it and away from the nearby manned vessels. The LSM contained the remote controls for the Barry's pseudo weapons and Lipan was to tow the Barry to simulate an underway tin can. It didn't take long before two kamikaze planes appeared just ten feet off the water equipped with huge bombs strapped to their belly to create a gigantic explosion when they slammed into a vessel. To our dismay, the first attacking Japanese plane slammed into the small LSM 59 and hit it directly amidships. The resultant explosion blew the ship into the hereafter and there was not one recognizable part left floating and at least sixty sailors met their demise. We hadn't anytime to think as the second kamikaze climbed straight up to make a dive on us and the Barry. I was a gunner on the 40mm and we gave him all we had, shooting off his wings and setting him afire. Nevertheless, he was able to slam into the Barry and hit her right on the bridge. We could not save her so we tried to tow her to Ie Shima. In the middle of the night the Barry started to sink and was pulling our old "Green Dragon" down by the stern. We had a pelican hook rigged and a sailor hit the release and the Barry slipped from our grasp and headed for Davy Jones' Locker.

However, the LCS(L)(3)-33 Action Report dated 4 April 1945 describes the ship's firing at attacking Japanese planes (Rielly 2000, 112), so the ship obviously did not sink off Iwo Jima. describes the sinking of LCS(L)(3)-33 on April 12, 1945: LCS(L) 33 fared no better. Under attack by three kamikazes, she downed the first one and had a close miss by the second, which took off her radio antenna before crashing into the sea. Unfortunately, this was not to be her day. A Val struck the starboard side of the 33, setting her on fire. The call to abandon ship was made and the crew went into the water. Number 33 continued to circle slowly to port before she blew up and sank in front of her crew. One of Rielly's sources for the above account is Action Report - LCS(L)(3)-57, Battle of Okinawa at Radar Picket Station |1, 12 April, 1945 - 15 April, 1945. The LCS(L)(3)-57 was at the same picket station as the LCS(L)(3)-33 on April 12, 1945.
