Navy ' s PROJECT HANDCLASP Sailors Give Their Time, Hands and Hearts To Tlie Handicapped In Malaysia PENANG, MALAYSIA - Sailors aboard BARBHY volun- teered for what is probably the United States Nay} ' s most success- ful volunteer program. PROJECT HANDCLASP. Over S6.000.00 worth {approximately 2.5 tons) of PROJECT HANDCL.ASP ma- terial, all donated by private citizens, charitable and religious orga- nizations and corporate America to PROJECT HANDCLASP. was carried on board B.XRBEY and ENGLAND. The material was for the Cheshire School for the Physically Handicapped and included food, health and hygiene products and .school books. The sailors from ENGLAND and BARBEY had some dona- tions of their own. These included si. totally rad skateboards and more than fifty California T-shirts. After transporting the PROJECT HANDCLASP materials to the Cheshire School, the sailors set to work sprucing up the .school, so they rolled up their sleeves, broke out the paint and brushes, hammers and nails to give the school a much needed face lift. Two days of work produced an improved facility and the sailors could look back with their new Malaysian friends at what their la- bor of love had wrought. Each person involved gave up liberty and personal time to help people who needed it most and that ' s what PROJECT HAND- CLASP is all about, showing that Americans really do care. i4 47 I warn to PUMP you UP lie looks guihy ol something 02 AUGUST 1990 Welcome to the Persian Gulf — iiiii. . nf h■ Shortly after dii wn on 02 August 1 990. BARBEY completed her first Straits of Hormuz transit to begin routine Persian Gulf patrols and Earnest Will Escort duties. The president of Iraq, Saddam Hus- sein would change our routine deployment into a challenge. Early morning on 02 August. Iraqi troops invaded its small neighboring country of Kuwait. With the capital Kuwait City seized and the royal family in e.xile. Iraq now controlled the rich oil fields of Kuwait. However the world powers and the United Nations Securi- ty Council would not let this act of aggression go unnoticed. Trade sanctions were placed on all the imports and exports of Iraq and Ku- wait. A multinational maritime interdiction tleet was positioned in the Red Sea. Persian Gulf and North .Arabian Sea to identify and challenge all shipping traffic. B.ARBEY nas among the first ships to tackle her new mission. The Saudi Arabian desert became filled with a multinational army and marine force to prevent further invasions by president Hus- sein.
