On the 15th, "Biloxi" departed the Philippines and steamed east to Ulithi. Arriving there two days later, she received much needed repairs and replenishment. "Biloxi" also recovered pilot Lt.(jg) Dana, who related an exciting cruise in "Sterlet" during which time the submarine sank at least two enemy cargo ships. While at Ulithi on 20 November, "Biloxi"s crew experienced the Japanese kaiten attack on the anchorage. All five midget submarines were lost in the attack, though not before the Japanese torpedoes damaged and eventually sank the tanker .
