Just prior to the Attack on Pearl Harbor, most of the ships on the Yangtze River Patrol were brought out of China, with only the smallest gunboats, "Wake" (the renamed "Guam") and "Tutuila" remaining behind. "Wake", at Shanghai, was subsequently captured by the Japanese. "Tutuila", at Chungking, was turned over to the Chinese. When the other gunboats reached Manila, the Yangtze River Patrol was formally dissolved when, on 5 December 1941, Rear Admiral Glassford sent the message, "COMYANGPAT DISSOLVED". Subsequently, the evacuated ships were all scuttled, or captured with their crews and imprisoned by the Japanese, after the fall of Corregidor in mid-1942. "Luzon" was later salvaged and used by the Japanese. was sunk in battle on 3 March 1942 and "Mindanao" was scuttled on 2 May; "Oahu" was sunk in battle 5 May 1942.
