NEW JERSEY ... “TYPHOON COBRA,” DECEMBER 18, 1944 - Thousands of US sailors serving aboard the 130 plus ships of Task Force 38, rode out a terrible storm on December 18, 1944, and it is sadly remembered today as “Typhoon Cobra.” This storm resulted in 3 capsized destroyers, the loss of 790 men, the total destruction of 146 badly needed combat aircraft, and brought crippling dam- age to many ships. Especially hard hit were the CVL’s (Light Aircraft Carriers,) and CVE’s (Escort Carriers.) At the time, USS NEW JERSEY (BB-62) was serving as fleet flagship for Task Force 38, and was under the command of Admiral William “Bull” Halsey. Today, as The Jerseyman commemorates this tragic World War 2 event, we are privileged to include stories of the storm as it was experienced by many of the sailors who were there. During our typhoon research, we were also fortunate to have had contact with Mr. Richard A. Strand, brother of lost USS SPENCE crewman Robert L. Strand. Mr. Strand has compiled an extensive amount of material about his brother’s ship. He graciously shared this information with The Jerseyman, and for many years, has offered his efforts at no cost, to the families of USS SPENCE crewmen. Along with the USS SPENCE’s history, his research contains many operating charts for the ship, and an excerpt from the Presidential Unit Citation (PUC), that USS SPENCE had received as part of Arleigh Burke’s famous “Little Beaver” Destroyer Squadron (DesRon) 23.

  • SEAFARING WOMEN: an Investigation of Material Culture for Potential Archaeological Diagnostics of Women on Nineteenth-Century Sailing Ships
    SEAFARING WOMEN: An Investigation of Material Culture for Potential Archaeological Diagnostics of Women on Nineteenth-Century Sailing Ships by R. Laurel Seaborn April, 2014 Director of Thesis/Dissertation: Dr. Lynn Harris Major Department: Department of History, Program in Maritime Studies ABSTRACT During the 19th century, women went to sea on sailing ships. Wives and family accompanied captains on their voyages from New England. They wrote journals and letters that detailed their life on board, adventures in foreign ports, and feelings of separation from family left behind. Although the women kept separate from the sailors as class and social status dictated, they contributed as nannies, nurses and navigators when required. Examination of the historical documents, ship cabin plans, and photos of those interiors, as well as looking at surviving ships, such as the whaleship Charles W. Morgan, provided evidence of the objects women brought and used on board. The investigation from a gendered perspective of the extant material culture, and shipwreck site reports laid the groundwork for finding potential archaeological diagnostics of women living on board.

    Carl Kaupp #25 December 6, 1984 Q: Mr. Kaupp, when did you first join the Navy? A: I joined the Navy the 18th of May in 1938. Q: What guided your choice to join the Navy as opposed to, say, the Army? A: Well, I signed up for the Marine Corps and the Navy, but at that time they were only taking twelve out of the New York district, and the Navy called me before the Marine Corps, and that's how I happened to get in the Navy. Q: What was the first ship you were assigned to? A: It was the USS Hull. Q: Where did you join her? A: In San Diego, in March of 1939. Q: When did you sail to Hawaii? A: We sailed to Hawaii in 1939 with a Hawaiian Detachment. Q: So, were you stationed in Hawaii before the main body of the fleet got out there? A: We proceeded the Main fleet. We were known as part of the Hawaiian Detachment. Q: What was the ship's operating schedule like in those days, when you first went out to Hawaii? A: Well, we would operate for a week or two weeks, and have maneuvers and do tactics, and then come back in , you know, for a weekend, or what have you. Or if we spent a number of weeks at sea, we would come in and then go alongside the tender for maintenance, or just swing around the buoy if it was our turn to. Q: And what would you normally do on time off that you had...liberty? A: Well, I spent a lot of time on the ship.
