  • Strategic Systems Programs
    The second ship of their class, USS Frank Cable (AS-40) is forward-deployed at Apra Harbor, Guam, where she serves U.S. Submarines - and - surfaces combatants - on deployments to the western Pacific. She was built by Lockheed/Seattle and commissioned in 1980. Frank Cable is one of two forward-deployed tenders that provide vital services to submarines while away from their homeports. She is seen here with USS Salt Lake City (SSN-716). THE SUBMARINE'S SECRET WEAPON A Tender Tale by Randall Guttery Even though Japan succeeded in destroying or damaging much of the battle line of the U.S. Fleet at Pearl Harbor, it is a great irony of World War II that their own senior officers immediately acknowledged two major failures: First, that the U.S. aircraft carriers escaped destruction; and second, that the air attack had largely ignored the Pearl Harbor submarine base. Subsequently, with the main body of the Pacific Fleet incapacitated, U.S. submarines were virtually the only forces left to carry the fight to the enemy. As Admiral Chester W. Nimitz observed, "When I assumed command of the Pacific Fleet on 31 December 1941, our submarines were already operating against the enemy, the only units of the fleet that could come to grips with the Japanese for months to come. It was to the Submarine Force that I looked to carry the load until our great industrial activity could produce the weapons we so sorely needed to carry the war to the enemy. It is to the everlasting honor and glory of our submarine personnel that they never failed us in our days of great peril." The image that most people have of the submarine operations that ensued is one of hunting down the enemy on far-flung war patrols and then returning home victoriously with a broom tied to the mast - as often as not passing under the Golden Gate Bridge - to a comfortable port where liberty, rest, and recreation awaited.

  • Independent and Interacting Effects of Multiple
    A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree by Examining Committee Members: © Copyright 2020 by Alexis M Weinnig All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT Human population growth and global industrial development are driving potentially irreversible anthropogenic impacts on the natural world, including altering global climate and ocean conditions and exposing oceanic environments to a wide range of pollutants. While there are numerous studies highlighting the variable effects of climate change and pollution on marine organisms independently, there are very few studies focusing on the potential interactive effects of these stressors. The deep-sea is under increasing threat from these anthropogenic stressors, especially cold-water coral (CWC) communities which contribute to nutrient and carbon cycling, as well as providing biogenic habitats, feeding grounds, and nurseries for many fishes and invertebrates. The primary goals of this dissertation are to assess the vulnerability of CWCs to independent and interacting anthropogenic stressors in their environment; including natural hydrocarbon seepage, hydrocarbon and dispersant concentrations released during an accidental oil spill (i.e. Deepwater Horizon), and the interacting effects of climate change-related factors and hydrocarbon/dispersant exposure. To address these goals, multiple stressor experiments were implemented to assess the effects of current and future conditions [(a) temp: 8°C and pH: 7.9; (b) temp: 8°C and pH: 7.6; (c) temp: 12°C and pH: 7.9; (d) temp: 12°C and pH: 7.6] and oil spill exposure (oil, dispersant, oil + dispersant combined) on coral health using the CWC Lophelia pertusa. Phenotypic response was assessed through observations of diagnostic characteristics that were combined into an average health rating at four points during exposure and recovery.

    Wisconsin Veterans Museum Research Center Transcript of an Oral History Interview with KELLI J. CARROLL Naval Supply Corps, US Navy 2019 OH 2147 OH 2147 Carroll, Kelli J., (1961–). Oral History Interview, 2019. Approximate length: 2 hours 39 minutes Contact WVM Research Center for access to original recording. Summary: This oral history interview with Kelli Carroll discusses her service with the Navy from 1984 to 2004 including the work she did with the Navy Supply Corps and her tours aboard the USS McKee, USS Cape Cod, USS Shasta, and USS Coronado. Carroll was born in Beloit, Wisconsin. After high school she attended UW-Whitewater before deciding to join the Navy and going to Orlando, Florida, for boot camp in 1984. She discusses being the guidon bearer in basic training, why she started smoking, meeting other lesbians, and firefighting training. Carroll went to A-School in Meridian, Mississippi, and trained as a ship's serviceman. She discusses how her supervisor got her into C-School where she learned advanced accounting and inventory skills. Carroll was assigned to the USS McKee out of San Diego, California, but put in a request to deploy with the USS Cape Cod in 1986. She discusses living in San Diego, going to gay bars and enjoying the laid-back attitude of the city. She explains the roll of the support ships in the Navy, describes the living conditions on the ship, her job in stockrooms, and cash handling. The USS Cape Cod deployed to Yokosuka, Japan, and Carroll describes it as a positive experience. After her deployment she was assigned to the Navy Exchange Service Command.
