D S ,P W HN 'E' DEDICATION This book is dedicated to that which can scarcely be illustrated in any book. lt is dedicated to the comradrie and Esprit de Corps of the ship's crew, to that indefinable spirit which drives a ship and its crew to great accomplishments. lt's a simple task to identify the rare ship which possesses this driving force for it possesses a can do attitude and a reputation for accomplishment. No matter how much the individual faces in the crowd change, or how frequent, varied, and difficult the committments of this ship, those things which must be done invariably get done. lt is a magic of sorts which unites a crew of dissimilar men in a close environment to cause a ship to take on a life of its own. The men of the BROWNSON possess this spirit and wield this sword of magic. They are the iron will and steel hand. They are this book and the USS BROWNSON. I ' 1
