  • The Jersey Bounce Fall 2009
    USS New Jersey Veterans, Inc. “THE JERSEY BOUNCE” Fall 2009 Issue Email - WWW.USSNEWJERSEY.ORG LPD 21 USS NEW YORK The 22nd reunion was held at the Crowne Plaza Riverfront Hotel in Jacksonville, Florida, October 7th through October 11th, 2009. The organization enjoyed a very successful reunion. The Memorial Service, St. Augustine and Jacksonville tours, Dinner Cruise, Welcome Aboard Dinner, and a Dinner Dance Banquet were well at- tended. We want to thank the reunion committee for a job well done. The reunion committee worked hard in providing this annual opportunity for our shipmates to become reacquainted with old friends and shipmates. These reunions are a great opportunity to make new friends, or just reminisce sea stories of bygone days. The days of the battleship, the most feared dreadnaught on the high seas, are long gone, but the battleship sailors live on and on. Newer and more deadly ships are joining the fleet providing firepower that we can- not imagine only conjecture.

  • Syndeck™ Ultra Lightweight Underlayment Used on the USS New York (LPD-21)
    For Release: Contact: NEWS Jill See Immediate Marketing Specialist T: 562-236-1175 F: 562-944-9958 SynDeck™ Ultra Lightweight Underlayment Used on the USS New York (LPD-21) PLACENTIA, CA (June 2009) – The military ship building/repair industry is highly focused on the efficiencies that come from ultra lightweight materials. However, most deck underlayments do not meet the lightweight requirements of the marine industry. California-based Epmar Corporation, with more than 20 years of experience providing the marine industry with primary deck coatings and underlayments, designed the SynDeck™ product line to meet the specific needs of surface materials, application and underlayment performance requirements for military and commercial marine vessels. SynDeck™ Ultra Lightweight Underlayment gives the highest possible performance with the lightest possible weight, and provides excellent corrosion resistance (MilSpec 3135). Northrop-Grumman Ship Systems, Avondale Operations, located in the greater New Orleans area, is currently building new LPD-class amphibious transport ships using Epmar’s SynDeck™ Ultra Lightweight Underlayment in all inhabited interior deck spaces. This new class of ship includes the LPD-21 USS New York, which was named to honor those that died in the September 11, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center. In fact, the bow stem of this particular ship was forged from reclaimed steel from World Trade Center buildings. When completed, the USS New York is slated to return to New York City to be commissioned into the US Navy, and will be operating out of the Norfolk Naval Shipyard. Gary Hayes, sales manager for the SynDeck™ line said, “Epmar Corporation is extremely proud to have SynDeck™ Ultra Lightweight Underlayment, SS1290, used for the deck underlayment on this class of ship, and on the USS New York in particular.” SynDeck™ is a complete line of deck underlayment products and systems used in the construction, overhaul and repair of decking and other surfaces in the marine environment.

  • Austal Usa Delivers 11Th Independence Class Littoral Combat Ship – Future Uss Kansas City (Lcs 22)
    COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT 13 FEBRUARY 2020 AUSTAL USA DELIVERS 11TH INDEPENDENCE CLASS LITTORAL COMBAT SHIP – FUTURE USS KANSAS CITY (LCS 22) Austal Limited (ASX:ASB) is pleased to announce that Austal USA has delivered its 11th Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) to the U.S. Navy at the company’s shipyard in Mobile, Alabama. The future USS Kansas City (LCS 22) is the first Independence-class LCS to be delivered by Austal USA in 2020. Austal Chief Executive Officer David Singleton said the latest LCS delivery from Austal’s USA shipyard builds upon the company’s strong record in recent years. “Austal USA’s delivery of the Independence-class LCS program continues to impress, with quality, cost and productivity improvements being achieved with each new vessel. “We have now delivered 11 of the 19 Independence-class LCS currently contracted and it’s very pleasing to see more and more of these ships deployed around the world, adding great capability to the U.S. Navy,” Mr Singleton said. Upgrades to the LCS program continue to take shape, both in production and post-delivery. Austal USA and General Dynamics Mission Systems teams recently integrated a new over-the- horizon missile system onto the USS Gabrielle Giffords (LCS 10) prior to her deployment. Gabrielle Giffords and her sister ship, USS Montgomery (LCS 8), are currently deployed and meeting U.S. Navy operational requirements in South East Asia. Five Independence-class Littoral Combat Ships (small surface combatants) are under various stages of construction at Austal USA including the future USS Oakland (LCS 24) and USS Mobile (LCS 26) that are preparing for sea trials.

  • Austal Limited (ASX:ASB) Is Pleased to Announce That the Future USS Mobile (LCS 26) Has Successfully Completed Acceptance Trials in the Gulf of Mexico
    Austal Limited (ASX:ASB) is pleased to announce that the future USS Mobile (LCS 26) has successfully completed acceptance trials in the Gulf of Mexico. LCS 26 is the 13th Independence- class Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) built by Austal USA in Mobile, Alabama, for the United States Navy (USN). Austal Chief Executive Officer David Singleton said Mobile (LCS26) was the third naval ship to successfully complete acceptance trials at Austal USA in 2020. “I know that the Austal USA team are particularly proud of this latest LCS, which is named after their home city of Mobile, and they have every reason to be proud given this is the third ship built by Austal USA to have completed acceptance trials for the US Navy in 2020,” Mr Singleton said. “The successful completion of acceptance trials for Mobile in Mobile, during this challenging time in world history is an outstanding achievement and testament to the skills and commitment of the Austal USA team.” Acceptance trials involve the execution of a number of tests by the Austal USA-led industry team while the vessel is underway; demonstrating to the United States Navy the successful operation of the ship’s major systems and equipment. The trials are the last significant milestone before delivery of the ship, scheduled for October 2020. The Independence-class LCS is a high-speed, shallow-draft surface combatant with an aluminium trimaran hull that provides class leading, multi-mission capability. These ships are designed to defeat growing littoral threats and provide access and dominance along coastal waters. A fast, maneuverable and networked surface-combatant, LCS provides the required warfighting capabilities and operational flexibility to execute surface warfare, mine warfare and anti-submarine warfare missions.

  • Christening of New Zumwalt-Class Guided Missile Destroyer, the Michael Monsoor
    Christening of new Zumwalt-class Guided Missile Destroyer, the Michael Monsoor Gary Lehman, The Scuba Sports Club (photographs and text) On June 18, 2016 the Michael Monsoor (DDG-1001) was christened with great celebration at the General Dynamics / Bath Iron Works shipyard in Bath, Maine. The ship is named after Medal of Honor recipient US Navy Petty Officer and SEAL Michael Monsoor (posthumously-awarded), who was killed in the line of duty selflessly protecting his comrades by throwing himself on an insurgent’s hand grenade to save them in Iraq in 2006. The ship’s sponsor was his mother, Sally Monsoor. She spoke with such warmth, love, affection and respect about her son, receiving a standing ovation from all assembled. Michael Monsoor’s sister and two sisters-in-law were the Matrons of Honor. All were escorted to the ship’s bow for the christening by five members of Monsoor’s SEAL team. Sally Monsoor then broke the champagne against the bow with a great display of foam and streamers. The American flag and US Navy Color Guard was provided by the USS Constitution. (Thus the span of time represented: from the oldest commissioned warship in the world – and the only commissioned US Navy ship in the Fleet to have sunk an enemy vessel - to the newest and most ‘high tech’ ship in the fleet!) The principal speaker was Vice Admiral Joseph Maguire, president and CEO of the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. Undersecretary of the Navy Janine Davidson also participated in the christening. The event was attended by over 1,000 members of the public, the executive team and personnel of General Dynamics/BIW, and Maine’s Senators and local political representatives.
