NIAGARA FALLS, NEW YORK 2015, 26Th ANNUAL REUNION RECAP ISSUE Issue # 78 (November Juliet Tango Alpha) Jan. 2016 (p-1) Official Newsletter for the USS Haynsworth Reunion Committee NIAGARA FALLS, NEW YORK 2015, 26th ANNUAL REUNION RECAP ISSUE Well, another year and another USS Haynsworth Reunion is now history. Twenty Four Shipmates and thirty six Family and Friends of the Haynsworth were in attendance !! It was exhilarating to see the turnout. On Wednesday, September 16th, attendee’s began arriving at our Host Hotel the Holiday Inn-Niagara in preparation for our first scheduled touring excursion to ‘Lockport NY’. I would first like to thank Jack Henline, SK3/c 1959 to 1961, for the exceptional DVD he provided to me for use in this 2015 ‘REUNION ISSUE’. In addition to letters and e-mail I have received since the July issue, I will include as many reunion photos as I can fit in. Thanks also to Jim Murphy, Johnny Pascucci, and Charlie Delahanty for sending in their photo’s from the reunion. BRAVO ZULU to you all!

Dear James,-----Let me start by giving you a hearty ‘BZ’- Well Done, for your work on the Haynsworth Newsletters- great job and info. Unfortunately my wife and I can’t attend the reunion this year.

Dear James,-----Thanks for all the work you’ve been doing for so many years to make the Haynsworth Association newsletters, and reunions continue to be a leading example of such activities. I get newsletters and reunion notices from a number of the ships and commands in which I’ve served in my 27 years. Among them, yours are leaders. Looking at the July 2015 newsletter prompted me to look at when I last paid dues. To my chagrin it looks like the last time was in 2010. So I’m sending this snail mail so I can enclose a check. I will continue to look forward to the Haynsworth newsletters but will be happy to receive them in digital form only. (Editor’s note: Thank you Bill for the Dues and especially signing up for the digital newsletter!---Jim.) *********************************************************************************************** (Rec’d July 10, 2015 f/ Susan (Kniskern) Lewis, daughter of Capt. Kenneth L. Kniskern Cdr. 64-66, Worcester, MA) Hi, My name is Susan (Kniskern) Lewis. Though forwarding my father’s mail is painfully slow, I received the July 2015 newsletter regarding the Haynsworth, just a short time ago. I just wanted to mention that my father, Kenneth Kniskern who was the commanding officer of the USSHaynsworth at Galveston, TX, passed away peacefully on August 3, 2013 at the age of 87. If you or anyone affiliated with him would like to communicate to anyone of his children, you can write to me at [email protected] -----/s/ Susan Lewis (Editors Note: Those of you who served aboard during the term of Captain Kniskern are encouraged to contact Susan. Thanks. ------Jim). P.S. Responses on next page, (4). USS Haynsworth Newsletter MAIL BAG January 2016 Page 4 Continued from page 3, Re, Captain Kniskern On July 11, 2015 I responded to Susan Lewis.------Dear Susan, Thank you for informing me of the passing of your father, Captain Kniskern. You have the sincere condolence of all the Officers and crew of the USS Haynsworth. Captain Kniskern’s passing will be acknowledged at the Haynsworth’s annual reunion in September at Niagara Falls NY. At our farewell banquet we have an opening ceremony commemorating all of our shipmates who have passed on since last years reunion. Your fathers passing will also be documented in our ‘TAPS’ Book and also in the next issue of the USS Haynsworth’s newsletter around December or January. If you like, I will mail thet issue to you and/or E-mail our E- newsletter. If I may ask, if you have any pictures of your father in uniform (or not) I will try to include it in the newsletter.. In fact, if your father had any pictures from his tim aboard the Haynsworth and you wouldn’t mind sharing with us, they would be appreciated and returned to you. Again, with deep sympathy, we mourn the passing of you father and our Shipmate.----- /s/ Jim Horn, 58-60 USS Haynsworth Newsletter Editor 2 Surrey Court Chambersburg, PA 17201-8756 ********************* Susan responded on July 11, 2015 Hi, I will work on getting some pictures for you.

SEE INSERT TO ORDER CHANCES ($2.00 each) NOW HEAR THIS! NOW HEAR THIS! The 2012 Haynsworth Reunion will be held at Albany New York. September 19 to 23, 2012, at the Crown Plaza Albany NY Last year’s Musical Ship’s Wheel, 2011 Reunion Clock was a huge success and highly desired raffle Clock. Based on the responses received, I selected a similar clock for our 2012 Reunion in Albany New York. This Particular clock called “The Americana” plays 18 tunes: America the beautiful; My Country ‘Tis of Thee; Battle Hymn of the Republic; You’re a Grand Old Flag; When the Saints Go Marching In; She wore a Yellow Ribbon; Amazing Grace; In the Garden; Ave Maria,(Hail Mary); How Great Thou art; Jesus Love Me; What a Friend We Have in Jesus; and 6 Christmas melodies; The First Noel; Jingle Bells; Silent Night; Deck the Halls; Joy to the World; and lastly, We Wish You a Merry Christmas. The shape is OVAL and 21” high by16” wide. The clock also has a light sensor so the music is not played at night.(so it doesn’t wake you up). On the hour, the clock Face opens and reveals a revolving patriotic display. There is an open window at the bottom of the clock revealing a pendulum movement. The frame of the clock is beautifully finished wood. See last year’s winner, Norm Schultz (44-45) inside this issue.

  • Navy and Coast Guard Ships Associated with Service in Vietnam and Exposure to Herbicide Agents
    Navy and Coast Guard Ships Associated with Service in Vietnam and Exposure to Herbicide Agents Background This ships list is intended to provide VA regional offices with a resource for determining whether a particular US Navy or Coast Guard Veteran of the Vietnam era is eligible for the presumption of Agent Orange herbicide exposure based on operations of the Veteran’s ship. According to 38 CFR § 3.307(a)(6)(iii), eligibility for the presumption of Agent Orange exposure requires that a Veteran’s military service involved “duty or visitation in the Republic of Vietnam” between January 9, 1962 and May 7, 1975. This includes service within the country of Vietnam itself or aboard a ship that operated on the inland waterways of Vietnam. However, this does not include service aboard a large ocean- going ship that operated only on the offshore waters of Vietnam, unless evidence shows that a Veteran went ashore. Inland waterways include rivers, canals, estuaries, and deltas. They do not include open deep-water bays and harbors such as those at Da Nang Harbor, Qui Nhon Bay Harbor, Nha Trang Harbor, Cam Ranh Bay Harbor, Vung Tau Harbor, or Ganh Rai Bay. These are considered to be part of the offshore waters of Vietnam because of their deep-water anchorage capabilities and open access to the South China Sea. In order to promote consistent application of the term “inland waterways”, VA has determined that Ganh Rai Bay and Qui Nhon Bay Harbor are no longer considered to be inland waterways, but rather are considered open water bays.
