as-U-1- 9i X5 54,23 A 3 Petty Officer J EFFERY GORSKI This cruisebook is dedicated in memorium to one of our h' t s ipma es, J eff GORSKI. He served on BADGER for two years as a Machinist Mate, but he is remembered as a quiet concerned friend. Jeff was a real part of this crew. He shared the long hours and disappointments. He laughed and enjoyed the good times too. There is a unique thing about a Destroyer in that each man becomes an essential t f par o the whole. When the crew loses a member, the ship suffers and the man is sorely missed. The BADGER remembers her men. We remember Jeff.

BADGER is designed to locate and destroy enemy submarines. She may operate as a unit of a hunter killer group, screen other ships or formations, patrol coastal Waters, or escort military con- voys. The outstanding men who make up BADGER's crew are dedicated to this mission of BADGER. This second cruise book highlights the men and events of BADGER's second de- P10y1nent into the Western Pacific. It is visual proof of our Ships slogan HBADGER DOES IT BETTER in both men and accomplishments . ' V X F 5-.. .. . 553, i. ,.-.' 1-n-w1sQ- hu' - ,- ,
