  • The USS America on Track to the Future: an Update from Captain Hall
    USS America Second Line of Defense! ! http://www.sldinfo.com/the-uss-america-on-track-to-the-future-an-update-from-captain- !hall/! The USS America on Track to the Future: An Update from Captain Hall 2013-12-05 We first met with Captain Hall at the time of the christening of the latest large deck amphibious ship for the USN-USMC team. Recently, we were able to discuss the progress of the ship and the next phase of the ship’s preparation for deployment. The Captain is an experienced CRUDES officer. For those of us not raised in the USN, this means an officer with Cruiser-Destroyer surface fleet background. And for Navy folks he would be described as a “black shoe” as opposed to a “brown shoe.” Again for those of us who have not served in the USN, this refers coming from the surface ship community rather than the aviation community. Credit Video of USS America during the builder trials: Huntington Ingalls, November 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKDyvjek0BY He has served as the chief engineer on a Spruance class destroyer and most recently was a Captain of a DDG. And in his last deployment with the DDG, he deployed with the USS Kearsarge as well in the Indian Ocean. It is important to remember that Admiral Halsey, when he went into the hospital before the Battle of Midway recommended that his surface ship Commander (a “black shoe” in Navy parlance) Admiral Spruance take command of Task Force 16, the USS Enterprise and USS Hornet battle group.

  • The Jerseyman Number 78
    “Rest well, yet sleep lightly and hear the call, if again sounded, to provide Firepower for Freedom…” 2nd Quarter 2013 The Jerseyman Number 78 Springtime on the Delaware River Rich Thrash, Brass Team Volunteer April 1st is a day that always brings a smile to my face. To me it means another cold winter season is history and that nice warm spring and summer days are just around the corner. In my book any day I can put the top down is a good day… On the ship it means that my fellow brass polishers and I will be able to work outside once again and put a shine on those things you just can’t work on in the winter when the wind whips off the Delaware and forces us below decks seeking a warmer place to do our thing. This past winter we’ve spent a lot of time in the lower levels of Turret 2 polishing all the brass in that area, and believe me it’s a target rich environment for brass polishing down there. I’m so happy the Turret 2 Experience will finally be opening to the public this coming weekend. This is something that has been two years in the making and on which a long list of volunteers and staff have worked many hours to give visitors the most realistic experience possible. The first tour of this area will start at 11:00 am this Sunday; tour groups will be limited to a maximum of 15 guests. The price for this new interactive tour is $29.95.
