-J 1-' 1 , BRAVO ZULU From ComDesDiv 152, 11 Feb. - HOEL joins me in expressing gratitude and admiration for your outstanding and professional performance as the Sea Dragon shotgun destroyer since the second of February, The volume and unerring ac-. curacy of your suppression fire was a joy and a comfort especially during periods when the task unit was receiving hostile fire. Cheers for the guns of BORDELON, Well Done, CAPTAIN NIVISON. From ComDesRon 15, 16 Mar. - BORDELON performance. I take pleasure in commending you for the support you gave my staff and me during the period you served as my flagship. Noteworthy was the support I received in the area of com- munications. The professionalism displayed by your gunnery department and combat information center in delivering high volume accurate fire with a main battery that required regunning should be a source of pride to all who serve in BORDE LON. To leave the line with only one bombardment round in your maga- zines exemplifies the can do spirit I observed in BORDELON. It has been a dis- tinct pleasure to have BORDELON serve as my flagship. f From Commander Cruise-Destroyer Group, Seventh Fleet, 12 May - Nothing could be finer As you return to Charleston upon completion of a most success- ful deployment, I wish to extend to each of you my personal congratulations for a job well done. As a unit, you have shown outstanding initiative, responsiveness and professional prowess. Individually, you have displayed exemplary skill, while par- ticipating in nearly every area of destroyer operations in the Tonkin Gulf. Naval gunfire, support, Sea Dragon, special ops and emergency search and rescue have all been enhanced by the presence of DesRon Four ship, Indeed, nothing could be finer than the achievement demonstrated by you South Carolinians. RADM S. H. MOORE. From Commander Seventh Fleet, 14 May - Soyonara. As you depart, I con- gratulate your entire squadron on the fine job you have done while deployed to WestPac. The outstanding performance of all your ships on naval gunfire sup- port missions resulted in badly needed relief for hard pressed in-country forces. In addition, the attack carrier escort services provided by McCARD, STRONG and BORDELON were significant factors in the safety and success of air strikes launched against North Vietnam. The contributions made by the ships of your squadron have been highly significant, and we of Seventh Fleet are proud to have had you serving with us. As you return home. I want to personally thank ComDes Ron Four and his fine staff, as well as the officers and men of MANLEY, McCARD, STRONG and BORDE LON for a job well done, best wishes for happy reunions with 3.6213 families and loved ones, and for a well deserved rest, VADM W.
