  • Jim Crooks Emblem Sponsored By: Armstrong Chapter
    Missouri State Society Daughters of the American Revolution Patriot of the Month April 2015 Service photo Jim Crooks Emblem Sponsored by: Armstrong Chapter Jim graduated in 1954 at Palm Beach High School in West Palm Beach, Florida, and enlisted in the Navy on July 27, 1954, at the age of seventeen, about 3 weeks before turning 18. He left by train for boot camp in San Diego with the train stopping various times along the route picking up recruits. After graduating from boot camp, he came home on leave, then reported to San Francisco and from there was flown to Honolulu, Hawaii, where he was stationed out of Pearl Harbor on the USS Walker, DDE-517. The USS Walker, a destroyer ship, was part of the seventh fleet and was commissioned during World War II and saw a lot of action during the war as well as the Korean War. Jim spent six months at his homeport of Pearl Harbor, then six months in the far East, then back to Pearl Harbor for six months to the dry dock for repairs and training, then to the far East again for another six months. The six months in the far East included Midway, Japan, tip end of Korea, Formosa, Hong Kong, Okinawa, Philippine Islands, Singapore, crossing the Equator, then back to Pearl Harbor. The mission of the USS Walker was to protect anti-submarine warfare which protected the battle group of aircraft carriers. Jim enlisted under the Kitty Cruise which meant he had to be discharged the day before he turned 21 years old.

  • Members of the USNA Class of 1963 Who Served in the Vietnam War
    Members of the USNA Class of 1963 Who Served in the Vietnam War. Compiled by Stephen Coester '63 Supplement to the List of Over Three Hundred Classmates Who Served in Vietnam 1 Phil Adams I was on the USS Boston, Guided Missile Cruiser patrolling the Vietnam Coast in '67, and we got hit above the water line in the bow by a sidewinder missile by our own Air Force. ------------------- Ross Anderson [From Ross’s Deceased Data, USNA63.org]: Upon graduation from the Academy on 5 June 1963, Ross reported for flight training at Pensacola Naval Air Station (NAS) which he completed at the top of his flight class (and often "Student of the Month") in 1964. He then left for his first Southeast Asia Cruise to begin conducting combat missions in Vietnam. Landing on his newly assigned carrier USS Coral Sea (CVA-43) at midnight, by 5 am that morning he was off on his first combat mission. That squadron, VF-154 (the Black Knights) had already lost half of its cadre of pilots. Ross' flying buddy Don Camp describes how Ross would seek out flying opportunities: Upon our return on Oct 31, 1965 to NAS Miramar, the squadron transitioned from the F-8D (Crusader) to the F4B (Phantom II). We left on a second combat cruise and returned about Jan 1967. In March or April of 1967, Ross got himself assigned TAD [temporary additional duty] to NAS North Island as a maintenance test pilot. I found out and jumped on that deal. We flew most all versions of the F8 and the F4 as they came out of overhaul.

  • 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.

  • Incidents at Sea Agreement: a Recipe for Disaster
    07_PEDROZO MASTER.DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 7/3/2012 3:30 PM The U.S.-China Incidents at Sea Agreement: A Recipe for Disaster Pete Pedrozo* INTRODUCTION On May 25, 1968, after making several close passes of the USS Essex, a Soviet Tu-16 Badger bomber crashed into the Norwegian Sea as it was attempting another pass, killing the entire crew.1 Two weeks earlier, Soviet warships had collided with the USS Walker in the Sea of Japan after the U.S. destroyer maneuvered to prohibit the Soviet ships from disrupting flight operations on board the USS Hornet.2 These incident culminated nearly a decade of dangerous incidents between U.S. and Soviet naval forces – close passes by low-flying aircraft, intentional shouldering (bumping) of surface ships, threatening maneuvers, and mock surface and air attacks against U.S. naval vessels – and laid the groundwork for the negotiation and signing of the Incidents at Sea (INCSEA) Agreement by the governments of the United States and the U.S.S.R. in 1972. INCSEA was signed in Moscow by then Secretary of the Navy John Warner and Soviet Admiral Sergei Gorshkov, and, for the next forty years, it all but eliminated unsafe and unprofessional aerobatics and ship handling when U.S. and Soviet (later Russian) forces operated in close proximity to one another on the high seas. A Protocol extending the prohibition on simulated attacks to nonmilitary ships was signed in 1973.3 That same year, nearly 150 U.S. and Soviet warships deployed to the Eastern Mediterranean in an effort to support their respective allies during the Yom Kippur War.

McGarty and Elaine (Carlson) Dorland DRAFT 1 Copyright © 2007 Terrence P. McGarty and Elaine Dorland, all rights reserved. "Among the Americans serving on Iwo island, uncommon valor was a common virtue." (Adm. Chester A. Nimitz). “Uncommon valor was the normal reaction and bravery beyond the call of duty was the normal response.” (Captain Andy Nisewaner) Page 2 of 397 Page Deliberately Left Blank Page 3 of 397 THE SECRETARY OF THE NAVY WASHINGTON The Secretary of the Navy takes pleasure in commending the THE UNITED STATES SHIP ALBERT W. GRANT for service as follows: “For outstanding heroism in action against enemy Japanese forces during the Battle for Leyte Gulf, October 24 to 27, 1944. Conducting a determined torpedo attack against a Japanese task force in Surigao Strait on the night of October 24, the U.S.S. ALBERT W. GRANT closed range to fire her first half salvo of torpedoes and succeeded in scoring hits on a Japanese battleship. Although severely damaged when heavy enemy guns opened fire as she turned to retire, she remained in the battle area and successfully launched her five remaining torpedoes, scoring hits on other enemy units. With all power gone, fires raging, compartments rapidly flooding and over one hundred casualties to care for, she fought throughout the night to remain afloat. Finally, assisted by a tug from Leyte, she effected the repair of her crudely patched holes and the pumping out of excess water and oil, resolutely continuing damage control measures until she could be taken in tow to an anchorage in Leyte Gulf.
