Hospital ships during Korean conflict



I'm trying to find out info for the hospital ships USS Benevolence, USS 
Haven, USS Repose, and USS Consolation.


The Benevolence collided with a civilian ship and sank during sea trials 
before heading to Korea.  How many of her passengers and crew were lost?

For the Haven, Repose, and Consolation, I'm trying to discover the dates of 
their sailings to and from the States, and from Yokosuka Naval Hospital into 
Korean waters and back.  For 1950 and 1951 I have a pretty good idea, then my 
info peters out.  Can anyone suggest a book or website that would have this 
info?
