Commander E. L. Robertson, Jr., . Receives Orders to U. S. S ~ia Vol. III, No. 37 U. S. Naval Operating Base, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba Saturday, 23 October 1948 GOOD NEWS AND COMMANDER E. L. ROBERTSON, JR., A WARNING . RECEIVES ORDERS TO U. S. S. SALEM At long last the fog applicator, so sorely needed on the Base, has Commander E. L. Robertson, Jr., USN, Commanding Officer, U.

The need for modern, more effec- tive equipment has long been recognized; and was ordered seve- ral months ago, but was slow in materializing. The Saiitation De- partment is jubilant over this latest acquisition and promises fewer in- sect pests in the future. Warning: In the past, it has been observed that children, for some unknown reason, love to play in the fog as it is laid down. Parents are warned that this is exceedingly dangerous. This point cannot be too strongly stressed. When the ma- chine is fogging, a constant tem- perature of 900o fahrenheit is maintained at the outlet. Do not allow your children to get closer than six (6) feet to the machine when it is operating. IT COULD BE FATAL! Adults too, are warned to stay away from the machine-it's a veritable "devil on wheels" and does not confine its lethal activity to the lower forms of animal life. The fog itself is not injurious to humans and no one should be afraid they will suffer no ill effects from the fog blowing around or through their quarters. The tremendous Commander Edward L.

  • USN Ship Designations
    USN Ship Designations By Guy Derdall and Tony DiGiulian Updated 17 September 2010 Nomenclature History Warships in the United States Navy were first designated and numbered in system originating in 1895. Under this system, ships were designated as "Battleship X", "Cruiser X", "Destroyer X", "Torpedo Boat X" and so forth where X was the series hull number as authorized by the US Congress. These designations were usually abbreviated as "B-1", "C-1", "D-1", "TB-1," etc. This system became cumbersome by 1920, as many new ship types had been developed during World War I that needed new categories assigned, especially in the Auxiliary ship area. On 17 July 1920, Acting Secretary of the Navy Robert E. Coontz approved a standardized system of alpha-numeric symbols to identify ship types such that all ships were now designated with a two letter code and a hull number, with the first letter being the ship type and the second letter being the sub-type. For example, the destroyer tender USS Melville, first commissioned as "Destroyer Tender No. 2" in 1915, was now re-designated as "AD-2" with the "A" standing for Auxiliary, the "D" for Destroyer (Tender) and the "2" meaning the second ship in that series. Ship types that did not have a subclassification simply repeated the first letter. So, Battleships became "BB-X" and Destroyers became "DD-X" with X being the same number as previously assigned. Ships that changed classifications were given new hull numbers within their new designation series. The designation "USS" standing for "United States Ship" was adopted in 1907.

  • Navy DDG-1000 Destroyer Program: Background, Oversight Issues, and Options for Congress
    Order Code RL32109 Navy DDG-1000 Destroyer Program: Background, Oversight Issues, and Options for Congress Updated February 27, 2008 Ronald O’Rourke Specialist in National Defense Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Navy DDG-1000 Destroyer Program: Background, Oversight Issues, and Options for Congress Summary The Navy is procuring a new kind of destroyer called the DDG-1000 (formerly the DD(X)). Navy plans call for procuring a total of seven DDG-1000s. The first two DDG-1000s were procured in FY2007 using split funding (i.e., incremental funding) across FY2007 and FY2008. The Navy estimates their combined procurement cost at $6,325 million. The Navy wants to procure the third DDG-1000 in FY2009; the Navy estimates its procurement cost at $2,653 million. The ship received $150 million in advance procurement funding in FY2008, and the Navy’s proposed FY2009 budget requests the remaining $2,503 million. The Navy’s proposed FY2009 budget also requests $51 million in advance procurement funding for the fourth DDG-51, which the Navy wants to procure in FY2010. The DDG-1000 program raises several potential oversight issues for Congress, including the accuracy of Navy cost estimates for the program, technical risk and system integration, the acquisition strategy for the third and subsequent ships in the program, the shared-production arrangement for the program, and the program’s potential implications for the shipbuilding industrial base. Potential options for Congress for the DDG-1000 program include supporting the Navy’s proposed plans, using a block-buy arrangement for procuring several DDG-1000s, and curtailing procurement of DDG-1000s, perhaps to help fund the procurement of other Navy ships.
