  • WARFARE OFFICERS CAREER HANDBOOK II Warfare Officers Career Handbook
    WARFARE OFFICERS CAREER HANDBOOK II WARFARE OFFICERS CAREER HANDBooK Warfare O fficers C areer H andbook IV WARFARE OFFICERS CAREER HANDBooK Foreword The Warfare Officers Career Handbook provides information for members of the Royal Australian Navy’s Warfare community. For the purposes of this handbook, the Warfare community is deemed to include all officers of the Seaman, Pilot and Observer Primary Qualifications. The Warfare Officer Community symbiotically contains personnel from the seaman, Submarine, Aviation, Hydrographic and Meteorological, Mine Clearance Diving and Naval Communications and Intelligence groups. The Warfare Officers Career Handbook is a source document for Warfare Officers to consult as they progress through their careers. It is intended to inform and stimulate consideration of career issues and to provide a coherent guide that articulates Navy’s requirements and expectations. The book provides a summary of the Warfare branch specialisations and the sub-specialisations that are embedded within them, leading in due course to entry into the Charge Program and the Command opportunities that follow. The Warfare Officers Career Handbook also describes the historical derivation of current warfare streams to provide contemporary relevance and the cultural background within which maritime warfare duties are conducted. It discusses the national context in which Warfare Officers discharge their duties. Leadership and ethical matters are explored, as is the inter-relationship between personal attributes, values, leadership, performance and sense of purpose. There is no intention that this handbook replicate or replace extant policy and procedural guidelines. Rather, the handbook focuses on the enduring features of maritime warfare. Policy by its nature is transient. Therefore, as far as possible, the Warfare Officers Career Handbook deals with broad principles and not more narrowly defined policies that rightly belong in other documents.

On that morning the face of naval warfare in the Pacific changed utterly. No longer would the war at sea be decided by squadrons of the world’s largest and most powerful battleships. Instead, the strategic emphasis shifted to a combination of two more lethal and far-ranging naval weapon systems. The aircraft carrier would replace the battleship by being able to increase the deadly range of a fleet from a few tens of miles – the range of battleship guns – to the hundreds of miles range of bomb- and torpedo-carrying aircraft. In addition, the American submarine would be able to place a strangler’s grip on the throat of the Japanese empire that, unlike the German U-boats’ attempts to control the Atlantic waters, could not be broken. Some have said that the result of the attack at Pearl Harbor was fortuitous in that it forced the US Navy to look toward the carrier and submarine to defend the southern Pacific and the United States’ western coast. This argument overlooks, however, the prewar build-up in those two weapons platforms, which seems to indicate that some individuals were looking seriously toward the future and the inevitable conflict.

  • Visionary Leadership Navigating Through Uncharted Waters
    U.S. Naval Academy Leadership Conference Visionary Leadership Navigating Through Uncharted Waters January 29-February 1, 2012 Annapolis, Maryland This Year's Conference is Dedicated to the Memory of Rear Admiral Maurice H. Rindskopf, USN (Ret.) “Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time; Footprints, that perhaps another, Sailing o’er life’s solemn main, A forlorn and shipwrecked brother, Seeing, shall take heart again.” By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow ear Admiral Maurice H. Rindskopf, USN (Ret.), was born on 27 September 1917 in Brooklyn, RNY. At the age of 16, he graduated from Poly Prep Country Day School, immediately traveling to Annapolis for induction into the Naval Academy Class of 1938. As a midshipman, Admiral Rindskopf demonstrated leadership in the classroom and on the athletic fields, graduating in the top 7% of his class and competing on the 1938 National Championship lacrosse team. After graduation from the Naval Academy, Admiral Rindskopf was assigned to serve two years aboard USS COLORADO (BB-45). He then attended Submarine School in New London, CT, where he met and married his wife, Sylvia Lubow. Graduating near the top of his class, he served in R-4 (SS-81), before being ordered to commission USS DRUM (SS-228) in Portsmouth, NH, a month before the declaration of World War II. He served on the DRUM for three years, complet- ing nine war patrols as torpedo, gunnery and then executive officer, and two patrols as commanding officer, the youngest to command a Fleet submarine (age 26).

  • USS Holland (AS-32) Decommissioning Ceremony
    USS HOLLAND (AS 32) Decommissioning Ceremony 1000, 13 April 1996 In Apra Harbor, Guam The Commissioning Pennant It is a time-honored tradition, this ceremony that decommissions a ship of the United States Navy. The decommissioning ceremony signifies the ship's retirement from active service and entry into the reserve fleet. The symbols used in today's ceremony have their origins in antiquity. During the Middle Ages the mark of knights and other nobles was a "coach whip pennant" called a pennon. The size of these pennons as well as their diverse splendor signified the rank and importance of the noble it heralded. During the infancy of modern naval sea power these nobles flew thei r pennons from the most visible place on the ship, usually the forecastle or the main mast. Perhaps the first time the commissioning pennant was used independent of feudal heraldry dates back to the 17th century during a conflict between the Dutch and English. Admiral Martin Harpertoon Tromp of the Dutch fleet hoisted a broom at his masthead to indicate his intention to "sweep" the English Navy from the sea. The gesture was soon answered by British Admiral William Blake who hoisted a horse whip to indicate his intentions to chastise the Dutch. The British carried out their boast and ever since a narrow coach whip pennant, symbolizing the original horsewhip, has been the distinctive mark of a vessel of war and has been adopted by all nations. The commissioning pennant, as it is called today, is blue at the hoist, with a union of seven white stars, and is red and white at the fly, in two horizontal stripes.
