  • Norfolk's Nauticus: USS Wisconsin BB‐64
    Norfolk’s Nauticus: USS Wisconsin BB‐64 The history of the U.S. Navy’s use of battleships is quite interesting. Some say the first battleship was the USS Monitor, used against the CSS Virginia (Monitor) in Hampton Roads in 1862. Others say it was the USS Michigan, commissioned in 1844. It was the first iron‐ hulled warship for the defense of Lake Erie. In any case, battleships, or as some have nicknamed them “Rolling Thunder,” have made the United States the ruler of the high seas for over one century. A history of those famous ships can be found in the source using the term bbhistory. By the way, BB‐64 stands for the category battleship and the number assigned. This photo program deals with the USS Wisconsin, which is moored in Norfolk and part of the Hampton Road Naval Museum and Nauticus. Though the ship has been decommissioned, it can be recalled into duty, if necessary. On July 6, 1939, the US Congress authorized the construction of the USS Wisconsin. It was built at the Philadelphia Navy Yard. Its keel was laid in 1941, launched in 1943 and commissioned on April 15, 1944. The USS Wisconsin displaces 52,000 tons at full load, length 880 fee, beam 108 feet and draft at 36 feet. The artillery includes 16‐inch guns that fire shells weighing one‐ton apiece. Other weapons include antiaircraft guns and later added on missile launchers. The ship can reach a speed of 30 nautical miles (knots) per hour or 34 miles mph. The USS Wisconsin’s first battle star came at Leyte Operation, Luzon attacks in the Pacific in December 1944.

    The U.s.s. Alabama This 35,000-ton battleship, commissioned as the USS Alabama in August 1942, is one of only two surviving examples of the South Dakota class. Alabama gave distinguished service in the Atlantic and Pacific theaters of World War II. During its 40-month Asiatic- Pacific stint, it participated in the bombardment of Honshu and its 300-member crew earned nine battle stars. Decommissioned in 1947, the ship was transferred to the state of Alabama in 1964 and is now a war memorial, open to the public.

Alabama is sailing quietly on the Pacific Ocean on the night of 26 November 1943. Most of the sailors are sleeping soundly in their racks while the night shift is on watch. At 22:15 the Officer of the Deck receives word there are enemy planes approaching and gives order to sound General Quarters. General Quarters, General Quarters, all hands man your battle stations, forward starboard side aft port side General Quarters. Sailors jump out of their racks and others run to their battle stations in orderly chaos. As water-tight hatches are being closed, Captain Wilson runs to the bridge to take in the situation and starts giving orders. While signalmen search the skies with their signal lights for the approaching enemy aircraft, gunners and loaders ready their guns waiting for orders.

  • Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress
    Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress September 17, 2020 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL32665 Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress Summary In December 2016, the Navy released a force-structure goal that calls for achieving and maintaining a fleet of 355 ships of certain types and numbers. The 355-ship goal was made U.S. policy by Section 1025 of the FY2018 National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 2810/P.L. 115- 91 of December 12, 2017). The Trump Administration has identified the achievement of a Navy of 355 or more ships within 10 years as a high priority. The Navy states that it is working as well as it can, within a Navy budget top line that is essentially flat in real (i.e., inflation-adjusted terms), toward achieving that goal while also adequately funding other Navy priorities, such as restoring eroded ship readiness and improving fleet lethality. Navy officials state that while the 355-ship goal is a priority, they want to avoid creating a so-called hollow force, meaning a Navy that has an adequate number of ships but is unable to properly crew, arm, operate, and maintain those ships. The Navy states that its proposed FY2021 budget requests the procurement of eight new ships, but this figure includes LPD-31, an LPD-17 Flight II amphibious ship that Congress procured (i.e., authorized and appropriated procurement funding for) in FY2020. Excluding this ship, the Navy’s proposed FY2021 budget requests the procurement of seven new ships rather than eight.

    United States General Accounting Office ‘C -” l Report to the Chairman, Committee on GAO . Armed Services, U.S. Senate September 1990 NAVY MAINTENANCE # Status of the Public and Private Shipyard Competition Program GAO/NSLAD-90-161 . United States _ General Accounhng Office washington, Dc-axa. National Security and International Affairs Division B-240400 September 26,199O The Honorable Sam Nunn Chairman, Committee on Armed Services United States Senate Dear Mr. Chairman: Since fiscal year 1985, defense appropriations acts have included provi- sions for competition between public and private shipyards for a portion of the Navy’s depot level ship maintenance and modernization work. In a March 1988 report,1 we concluded, in part, that inherent differences preclude public and private shipyards from competing on an equal footing. We noted, however, that the Navy had taken steps to ensure that public and private shipyards be treated as equitably as possible. At that time, only a few overhauls and repairs had been completed. In response to a request from your office, we reviewed the current status of the shipyard competition program. This report summarizes the results of that work. The public and private shipyard competition program has resulted in Results in Brief limited competition between public and private shipyards with both types of shipyards submitting proposals on less than half the vessels competed. In part, this is because private shipyards can price proposals below expected costs, whereas public shipyards are required to include a proportionate share of all expected costs. Additionally, the limited availability of commercial ship construction and repair work has cre- ated a highly competitive market among private shipyards resulting in relatively low price proposals.

  • Environmental Monitoring and Disposal of Radioactive Wastes from U.S
    REPORT NT-19-1 MAY 2019 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND DISPOSAL OF RADIOACTIVE WASTES FROM U.S. NAVAL NUCLEAR-POWERED SHIPS AND THEIR SUPPORT FACILITIES NAVAL NUCLEAR PROPULSION PROGRAM DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY WASHINGTON, D.C. 20350 This publication was printed on Recycled Paper Report NT-19-1 May 2019 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND DISPOSAL OF RADIOACTIVE WASTES FROM U.S. NAVAL NUCLEAR-POWERED SHIPS AND THEIR SUPPORT FACILITIES 2018 Prepared by T. J. Mueller, J. M. Steele, and A. C. Gellender Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program Department of the Navy Approved by __________________________ J. F. CALDWELL, JR. Admiral, U.S. Navy Director, Naval Nuclear Propulsion ABSTRACT This report assesses the environmental effect of disposal of radioactive wastes originating from U.S. naval nuclear propulsion plants and their support facilities. The total long-lived gamma radioactivity in liquids discharged to all ports and harbors from all naval nuclear-powered ships and supporting tenders, naval bases, and shipyards was less than 0.002 curie in 2018. To put this small quantity of radioactivity into perspective, it is less than the quantity of naturally occurring radioactivity in the volume of saline harbor water occupied by a single nuclear-powered submarine, or the quantity of naturally occurring radioactivity in the top inch of soil on a half-acre lot. This report confirms that procedures used by the Navy to control releases of radioactivity from U.S. naval nuclear-powered ships and their support facilities have not had an adverse effect on human health or the quality of the environment. These procedures have ensured that no member of the general public has received measurable radiation exposure as a result of operations of the Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program.
