The USS HAYNSWORTH, DD-700 Commissioning Pennant Has Found Its Home! U.S.S. Haynsworth DD-700 Newsletter Issue # 84 (November Juliet Tango Alpha) January. 2018 (p-1) Official Newsletter for the USS Haynsworth Reunion Committee, President, Harvey N. Bailey RD3 1960 to 1962 SHIPMATES, FAMILY, AND FRIENDS OF THE USS HAYNSWORTH DD-700 REUNION COMMITTEE, WELCOME TO THE 2018 REUNION ISSUE OF THE HAYNSWORTH NEWSLETTER. The USS HAYNSWORTH, DD-700 Commissioning Pennant has found its Home! I am pleased to announce to you that the Commissioning Pennant of the USS Haynsworth, DD-700, has now found its permanent home with the family of Commander Haynsworth. After the ‘Haynsworth’, DD-700, reunion in Scranton, PA, (October 4 to 8), I packaged the pennant and shipped it to Commander Haynsworth’s daughter, Linda Haynsworth Kruger in Eagles Point, Oregon. Yesterday, I received an e-mail from Linda. Linda writes: “Hi Jim, I am sending a picture of the commission pennant. I could not hang it in the dining room as the wall was to narrow. Instead, I hung it in the living room where everyone can see it. So far, everyone has commented on its beauty and the wonderful story of my father. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this wonderful gift. Every time I look at it, I shed a tear of joy. I can’t wait for the children and my brother’s family to see it. Thank you so much for sending this piece of my history to us. I will always cherish it. //s// Linda PS, Thank you again so much. Everyone who sees it is so impressed, amazed, and delighted!

Hinkle, BT3 listed as serving aboard in 1959. Since the picture described on page 10 of the July 2017 newsletter was taken in the 1944 to 1945 period, it cannot be him. Sorry). ******************************************************************* (Rec’d 20 Sept. ’17 from MM3 Ken and ally Fanus [61 to 63], Elizabethtown, PA.)

South Glastonbury, CT) Dear Jim,----I got this Zippo in the Haynsworth Ships Store in ’54 or ’55 as a present for my wife. She stopped smoking soon after so, it didn’t get much use. I don’t know if you have an ‘archive’ of ‘things’. (see page 4) If not, it might be a good idea. I have a few pictures ‘on-board’ from ’54 to ’56. If I send them to you could they be copied and sent back? The newsletter is great. Nice work. //s// Jack Raycroft (Ed. Note: Thank you Jack for sending the Zippo to me. I too purchased one in the ships Store in ’58 but somewhere in the passing years I lost mine. To answer your question about the Haynsworth having an ‘archive of things’, we do not. If it would be agreeable to you, I propose to enter your ‘zippo’ into our next reunion’s “Silent Auction”. As for your pictures, yes, send them to me and I will copy and return to you. I would ask that if you have pictures which include shipmates and you can identify who they are on the back, I would deeply appreciate it. I receive many photo’s and most times, none of the shipmates are identified. Thanks Jack.) ************************************************************ (Rec’d 27 July, 2917 f/ Linda (Haynsworth) Krueger Dear James,---------So good to hear from you. I do so enjoy getting the Haynsworth Newsletters. I gave one of them to my granddaughter to use as part of a family history project she was doing. She was so impressed with her great grandfathers life. Our family is doing well and all are healthy, wealthy and wise…..wealthy and wise are determined by our state of mind…..healthy is quantifiable! (continued after Editors note). (Editor’s Note: The following portion of Linda’s mail refers to a prior years conversation where-in I informed Linda that our ‘Board of Director’s and Officers’ had passed a resolution to send the ‘Commissioning Pennant of the U.S.S. Haynsworth, DD-700’ to you after we no longer needed it.

SEE INSERT TO ORDER CHANCES ($2.00 each) NOW HEAR THIS! NOW HEAR THIS! The 2012 Haynsworth Reunion will be held at Albany New York. September 19 to 23, 2012, at the Crown Plaza Albany NY Last year’s Musical Ship’s Wheel, 2011 Reunion Clock was a huge success and highly desired raffle Clock. Based on the responses received, I selected a similar clock for our 2012 Reunion in Albany New York. This Particular clock called “The Americana” plays 18 tunes: America the beautiful; My Country ‘Tis of Thee; Battle Hymn of the Republic; You’re a Grand Old Flag; When the Saints Go Marching In; She wore a Yellow Ribbon; Amazing Grace; In the Garden; Ave Maria,(Hail Mary); How Great Thou art; Jesus Love Me; What a Friend We Have in Jesus; and 6 Christmas melodies; The First Noel; Jingle Bells; Silent Night; Deck the Halls; Joy to the World; and lastly, We Wish You a Merry Christmas. The shape is OVAL and 21” high by16” wide. The clock also has a light sensor so the music is not played at night.(so it doesn’t wake you up). On the hour, the clock Face opens and reveals a revolving patriotic display. There is an open window at the bottom of the clock revealing a pendulum movement. The frame of the clock is beautifully finished wood. See last year’s winner, Norm Schultz (44-45) inside this issue.

    U.S.S. Haynsworth DD-700 Newsletter Issue 69 December 2012 (p-1) Official Newsletter for the USS Haynsworth Reunion Committee TO ALL SHIPMATES, FAMILIES AND FRIENDS; A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND, A HAPPY NEW YEAR 2013 FROM; CHRIS, ME, and the OFFICERS and BOARD MEMBERS of the USS HAYNSWORTH REUNION COMMITTEE. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Another year has passed and we begin to look forward to 2013 and where we will meet again. First though, we reflect on the 2012 reunion held in Albany NY and hosted by Carl and Helen Alesio. We began assembling on Wed. 19 Sept. in preparation for the start of camaraderie and touring on Thursday. The official tour to Cooperstown was cancelled due to insufficient participation but that did not deter the diehard baseball fans from going. We gathered two cars together with volunteers and 10 of us set off to Cooperstown for a great day at the Baseball Hall of Fame. The journey took us through beautiful NY scenery to the surprisingly small village of Cooperstown. All of us had a great time exploring three floors of Baseball history and learning much of the history of Baseball that even the most ardent fans would have been amazed. On returning to our Hotel Albany we re- united with those who stayed back and had an enjoyable evening dinner and spent the evening in camaraderie in our hospitality room. On Friday, 20 Sept. we gathered for a bus trip to Lake George New York for a buffet lunch and entertainment cruise on-board the Cruise ship “Lac de Saint Sacrement” the largest cruise ship sailing Lake George.The weather was perfect and we all enjoyed a superb lunch while enjoying the music entertainment and wonderful scenery.

  • Trim but Deadly the Quarterly Newsletter of the Destroyer Escort Historical Museum
    Trim But Deadly The Quarterly Newsletter of The Destroyer Escort Historical Museum Volume 26 Number 2 Second Quarter 2020 Chairman’s Report By Bartley J. Costello, III Recently, in preparation for our return to Caddell Drydock & Repair Shipyard in Staten Island, for extensive work on our mast and other updates, I collected and organized onboard historic documents. This activity provided a glimpse into the inspired leadership, and often unrecognized volunteers over the past three decades. Together, they have worked to achieve the dramatic result we know today as the Cannon Class USS Slater DE-766, named for Frank O. Slater, a sailor killed aboard the USS San Francisco during the Battle of Guadalcanal in 1942. Her keel was laid down in March 1943, and commissioned in May 1944, with Slater’s mother present. What became clear was that it was no sure thing that this particular ship would be saved and preserved; faithful to its original state, or that Albany would be its homeport. In this and future columns, I will write more about the various aspects of its history, in order to provide perspective for our mission. Aboard Slater, we honor the sacrifices, courage, and the dedication of those who served aboard destroyer escorts. These were civilian sailors, often reservists, who responded at a time of great need, to play a large role in winning the Battle of the Atlantic and preserving our freedoms. The sailors of the fifteen lost DE’s paid with their lives, and are honored at various times, especially annually on DE Day held aboard our ship.

With this year’s reunion being early, this issue is the last issue with the Registration Form and other information concerning activities, contacts and other important details of interest for those attending. Jim and Ann Murphy have been working hard to provide a memorable, enjoyable and fun time for attendees. Activities will include meeting the haunts of the Ghosts of Savannah including a dinner at the most famous haunted building in Savannah, the “Pirate’s House”, where seamen were “shanghaied” by merchant Captains to fill out their crews. Seamen would wake up and find themselves far out to sea and given the choice of work or swim! We will also visit the “MIGHTY EIGHTH AIR FORCE” museum where will also hold our annual memorial service in honor of our lost shipmates since our 2010 reunion. Hope to see many of you at the reunion. FAIR WINDS and FOLLOWING SEA’s to you and your families. USS Haynsworth Newsletter 12 USS HAYNSWORTH DD-700 NEWSLETTER James F.
