This is a volume of photographs representing thousands of people, places, events and memories associated with the first deployment of USS Carl Vinson. The men who visited the places and lived the events make it a hook. For some, it has a definite he- ginning and end. For others it is a reminder of a short period in o career that will continue on other ships. Vt As there are threads common to all, so is there a person meaning in the hook for each man who served on hoard. He can see pictures o his shipmates, his ship, and the places he visited. Not one of the thousands of others who see the book will share his exact feelings, so it becomes his book; the dramatization of a slice of life which he invested in a 243-dai odyssey around the world. 3[|[ May this book always serve as a retlitnder of the responsibil- ities, sacrifices, and hard work we shared, and of the good friends we made during iiadd Cruise ' 83 in USS Carl Vinson. ' m - - T. A. MERCER Captain, U.S. Navy Commanding Officer CARL VINSON (CVN-70) CAEL ¥M, 1883-1981 UNCLE CARL CARL VINSON — THE MAN Carl Vinson was an unparalleled champion of military preparedness, whose philosophy was that lasting peace could only be achieved through a strong defense capabil- ity. Carl Vinson ' s Congressional career began in 1914 when he was first elected to the U.S. House of Represen- tatives; he went on to serve there continuously for more than fifty years. Considered for years to be the most powerful man in Congress, Carl Vinson ' s influence in Washington was legendary and he is generally credited with preparing the country to survive two major wars. In his book, Was There, Admiral William D. Leahy praised Vinson for his work in a critical decade (1935-1945); In my opinion, the Georgia Representative had, in the past decade, contributed more to the national defense than any other single person in the country except the Presi- dent himself. During 1941-42, he sponsored and passed 99 defense related bills through the House stressing accelerated con- struction of warships in anticipation of hostilities to come. Vinson encouraged the United States to adopt two basic policies: to retain armed physical strength to dis- courage aggression, and to develop spiritual strength to make peace a viable reality. In 1947 he became the first chairman of the newly formed House Armed Forces Committee, where he faced down a succession of Presi- dential and Congressional attempts to reduce defense spending. He remained a powerful force in maintaining U.S. military defenses until his retirement in 1964 after serving an unprecedented 25 terms in the U.S. House of Representatives. CONGRESSMAN VINSON 1914 CAEL ¥1 ©M AT LAUNCHING 15 MARCH 1980 On March 15, 1980, Carl Vinson became the first living American to have a Navy ship named in his honor, when the aircraft carrier U.S.S. CARL VINSON was launched at Newport News, Virginia. Below are some quotes by Carl Vinson: Once you start to plow a row, plow it straight and hard to the end of the line. No person representing the American people should ever place the defense of this nation below any other priority. The most expensive thing in the world is a cheap army and navy. History has clearly shown that weakness in- vites attacks. 1 will have to leave it to others to sell the idea that we can rise by falling, that we can advance by retreating, that we can achieve strength through weakness. ' T©IRY= USi eAEIL¥IIMSOK America is strong, but she is in danger of becoming weak, Rep Vinson said when the keel of the ship bear- ing his name was laid on October 11, 1975. This great aircraft carrier will add strength. But it must not stop here . . . Only with determination on the part of our people to remain militarily strong, will we survive. So began the history of America ' s newest aircraft carrier, the third in a class of warships considered to be the world ' s mightiest. When the CARL VINSON was christened by the congressman ' s nurse and long-time friend, Molly Snead, on March 15, 1980, Mr Vinson was present, mak- ing him the first U.S. citizen to see the launching of a Navy ship named in his honor. It is impossible for me to find words to express my gratitude for the high honor paid me here today, he said. No event in my life, no event in my future, can ever equal this day. My cup runneth over. My star has reached its zenith. Construction continued at Newsport News Shipbuild- ing, and crewmembers began living aboard in August 1981, changing the CARL VINSON from an inanimate collection of parts to a living testimonial to its namesake. The ship completed Builder ' s Trials on January 26, 1982, and Acceptance Trials during the week of February 15 when the Navy ' s Board of Inspection and Survey mea- sured the ship systems against the Navy ' s specifications. March 13, 1982, was Commissioning Day for the U.S.S. CARL VINSON and two days later the newest addition to the U.S. Navy moved to its homeport, the U.S. Naval Station, Norfolk, Va. After a brief period of final fitting out, the CARL VIN- SON began at-sea training and provided carrier landing qualification services for fleet aircraft squadrons. January 1983 saw AIRWING FIFTEEN joining the CARL VINSON for the pre-cruise work-up process which involved three phases of type training, honor- ing the skills of the ship-airwing combat team. In March the CARL VINSON and AIRWING FIFTEEN departed Norfolk for the Caribbean and the Operational Readi- ness Exam. 10 -- v . , 1 Following the ORE, CARL VINSON crossed the Atlan- tic for a month of operations in the Mediterranean and a port call in the beautiful principality of Monaco. Then it was back through the Strait of Gibraltar for the transit around Africa to the Indian Ocean. The transit gave the CARL VINSON an opportunity to call upon a couple of ports rarely visited by U.S. warships, Casablanca, Moroc- co and Abidjan, Ivory Coast. The next nineteen weeks were spent in the Indian Ocean with a port visit to P erth, Australia to break it into two manageable parts. The ship and airwings were intimately involved in two major exercises, BEACON FLASH with the government of Oman; VECTOR SOUTH with the government of Soma- lia. Finally proceeding east through the Strait of Malacca, the Vinson made port calls in Subic Bay, Philippines; Hong Kong; Pusan, Korea; Sasebo, Japan; and Honolulu, Hawaii. Tiger cruise participants joined the ship in Honolulu and enjoyed an exciting week aboard the star- ship enroute to our new homeport, NAS Alameda. It was eight months of learning and growing aboard the CARL VINSON on her 1983 Around the World maiden cruise, with memories none of us will ever forget. 11 EMBARKED AIRCRAFT The aircraft of the CARL VINSON provide the primary offensive and defensive capabilities of the task force. This carrier airwing team provides the most effective and longest ranged power projection and sea control capability at sea to- day. The mix of highly sophisticated aircraft aboard the CARL VINSON provides more striking power than that possessed by all but the largest of the world ' s air forces. Carrier Air Wing 15 is made up of ten squadrons representing eight different types of aircraft. During all overseas deployments and many training cruises in waters near the U.S., the airwing operates from the deck of the CARL VINSON. Whenever the ship is in homeport the squadrons disperse to their respective home air stations throughout the United States. saai; The F-14 TOMCAT is the Navy ' s newest and best fighter inti ceptor. The TOMCAT is a two-seat, twin engine all-weather a craft capable of flying twice the speed of sound. One of the uniq features of the F-14A is its variable-geometry wing which is sw« forward to provide extra lift for takeoff, landing and low spe manuvering, and sweeps aft for less drag during high spe flight. The TOMCATalso features the world ' s longest range figl er-borne radar, capable of tracking and shooting multiple targi simultaneously. To maintain air superiority whenever and whi ever needed, the aircraft utilizes long-range Phoenix, mediu range Sparrow, and short-range Sidewinder missiles as well as t M-61 20mm cannon. An additional capability essential to t airwing is the TARPS photo-reconaissance pod which can be c ried by the F-14A to evaluate targets before and after a stril CVW-15 has two squadrons of F-14As flown by the Screami Eagles of VF-51 and the Sundowners of VF-111, both based Naval Air Station, Miramar, San Diego, California. F-14 A TOMCAT The A-7E CONSAIR II is a single engine jet light attack strike bomber and close support aircraft. The A-7E is flown by one pilot and is capable of carrying Sidewinder air-to-air missiles, air-to-surface missiles, M-61 20mm cannon, and mines as well as a wide range of smart and iron bombs. The aircraft utilizes a sophisticated digital computer for both weapons delivery and navigation. Additionally the A-7E can carry a FLIR (Forward-Looking Infrared-Red) pod offering improved night- capability. CVVV-l 5 has two A-7E squadrons, the Raging Bulls of VA-37 and the Gunslinger of VA-105, both based at Naval Air Station, Cecil Field, Florida. 12 A-7E CORSAIR II The A-6E INTRUDER is a two-seat twin engine, deep-strike interdiction bomber specifically designed to deliver a devastating bomb load with great accuracy in any weather, day or night. The A-6E is equipped with a sophisticated weapons system which can deliver a wide variety of weapons including the Harpoon air-to- surface cruise missile, laser and TV guided munitions, and mines. Additionally the INTRUDER can carry Sidewinder air-to-air mis- siles for defense against airborne threats. CVW-15 has one squad- ron of A-6Es flown by the Knight Riders of VA-52, based at Naval Air Station, Whidbey Island, Washington. The squadron also flies the KA-6D model of the INTRUDER, which is a tanker version and can carry up to 26,000 pounds of fuel for inflight refueling of other aircraft in the airwing. A-6E INTRUDER The EA-6B PROWLER is a four seat, twin engine, all weather jet aircraft designed exclusively for tactical electronic warfare. The Prowler employs sensitive onboard sensors and powerful jammer pods to locate and jam enemy radars, thus denying him effective use of his weapons systems. This versatile, highly complex aircraft may be used in a variety of roles, such as passive surveillance, battle group defense, and strike group escort, providing radar masking and missile system degradation to protect attack aircraft. The EA-6B Prowler is a vital asset in today ' s sophisticated electronic environment. The Prowlers of Carrier Air Wing FIFTEEN are flown by the GARUDAS of Tactical Electronic Warfare squadron ONE THIRTY FOUR, based at Naval Air Station, Whidbey Island, Washington. EA-6B PROWLER The S-3 A VIKING is a twin engine jet with a crew of four which provides the primary medium to long range anti-submarine de- fense for the carrier battle group. The VIKING carries a wide range of surface and subsurface search equipment including son- obuoys, high-resolution radar, magnetic anomaly detection boom, a turret mounted forward looking infrared (FLIR) scanner, and passive electronic counter measures equipment. The heart of the ASW data processing is the Univac 1832A digital computer which receives inputs from all sensors, stores information for instant recall, and carries out weapon-trajectory calculations based on these sensor inputs. The aircraft also utilizes an inertial naviga- tion system to accurately deliver a variety of weapons including torpedoes, bombs, depth-chargers, mines or rocket pods. The VI- KING ' s outstanding range and loiter capability make it an excel- lent surface surveillance platform. The S-3As in CVW-15 are flown by the Dragonfires of VS-29, based at Naval Air Station, North Island, San Diego, California. S-3A VIKING The E-2C HAWKEYE is a twin engine turboprop aircraft with a five man crew which provides airborne early warning services in all weath- er conditions for the task group. State-of-the-art highly sophisticated radar and communications equipment is used to provide strike and traffic control, area surveillance, search and rescue guidance, naviga- tional assistance and communications relay in areas hundreds of miles from the carrier. As an addition to its radar system, the E-2C carries a passive detection system which automatically detects the presence, di- rection and identity of any threat radar in a high signal density envi- ronment. The HAWKEYE also possesses a good passive electronic counter measures capability The E-2Cs in CVW-15 are flown by the HAWGS of VAW-114, based at Naval Air Station, Miramar, San Diego, California. E-2C HAWKEYE The SH-3H SEA KING is a twin gas turbine-powered helicopter wit a four man crew used for anti-submarine warfare, rescue and assistanc missions, and transfer of cargo and personnel between ships at sea. Tli SEA KING is equipped with a dipping sonar, magnetic anomaly detei tion gear, sonobuoys, and multi-channel relay equipment. When coi ducting ASW operations the SEA KINGS work closely with each oth( as well as surface ships and other aircraft to coordinate the search an prosecute the attack utilizing torpedoes. CVW-15 SEA KINGS are flow by the Black Knights of HS-4, based at Naval Air Station, Nort Island, San Diego, California. SH-3H SEA KING 14 3i ' m .!«. ir Aig ' i ■v ■ RADM T.F.

' _VF-5 Fighter Squadron FIFTY-ONE (VF-51), is the oldest Fighter Squadron of continuous service in the Pacific Fleet. Originally commissioned as the VF-3S Striking Eagles , they went through numerous changes before becoming the Screaming Eagles of VF-51 in 1948. The Eagles flew several fighters before transitioning to the slick black-tailed F-14 ' s they fly today. The Screaming Eagle insignia first appeared on the side of a CURTISS F6C-4 biplane in 1927. During these early years VF-51 flew the BOEING FB-5, F3B-1, and the F4B-4 before updating to a retractable gear biplane, the GRUMMAN F2F-1, in 1935 and the GRUMMAN F3F-3 in 1937. At the outbreak of WW II, the Eagles were flying the single-winged GRUMMAN F4F-3 WILDCATS, and engaged in fighting at Gua- dalcanal. During the war, VF-51 was chosen to introduce the famed GRUMMAN F6F HELLCAT to the fleet. The Eagles re- ceived the Presidential Unit Citation for their outstanding perfor- mance in combat, conducting strikes on Wake, The Marshalls, and The Marianas. In February of 1945, the Squadron transitioned to the VOUGHT F4U CORSAIR. VF-51 ' s last WWII cruise ended shortly when their Home Afloat , the USS FRANKLIN, was struck by a Japanese Kamikaze. After the war the Eagles conduct- ed training and transitioned to the GRUMMAN F8F-1 BEARCAT. VF-51 entered the jet age on November 18, 1948, with the NORTH AMERICAN FJ-1 FURY. The Eagles were the first Fleet Squadron to operate jets aboard a carrier and the first Navy Squad- ron to take jets into combat. The first Navy air-to-air kills in Korea were made with VF-51 ' s F9F-2 PANTHERS shooting down two YAK-9 ' s on 3 July 1950. The next aircraft to proudly display the Eagle ' s insignia, was the sweptwing FJ-3 FURY. The Screaming Eagles entered the supersonic era with the F-11 TIGER, F4D SKYRAY and from 1960-1971, the F-8 CRUSADER. During this later period, the Eagles made several Vietnam Cruises. In 1969, VF-51 was the first squadron to be awarded the RADM Joseph C. CLIFTON Trophy, as the Navy ' s most outstand- ing Fighter Squadron. Some of the more famous personnel who have been assigned to VF-51 include: Medal of Honor winner RADM STOCKDALE, and astronauts Neil ARMSTRONG (who flew combat in Korea) and Ron EVANS, as well as Tom HAYWARD who went on to become Chief of Naval Operations. In 1971, VF-51 transitioned to the F-4 PHANTOM II and trans- ferred from Airwing FIVE to Airwing FIFTEEN. The Eagles made their PHANTOM debut in Vietnam by bagging four (4) MIG-17 ' s. In 1974, VF-51 was the recipient of the Pacific Fleet Battle E Award, earning the Eagles their reputation as the West Coast ' s premier Fighter Squadron. The Screaming Eagles were also part of the 1975 Vietnam evacuation, and the USS MAYAGUEZ rescue. In late 1977, VF-51 retired their F-4 ' s and began transitioning to the GRUMMAN F-14 TOMCAT. The Eagles finished transitioning in October 1978, and deployed to WESTPAC onboard the USS KITTY HAWK in May of 1979. During this cruise VF-51 saw oper- ation in the Indian Ocean supporting the United States efforts to free the American hostages held captive in Iran. Returning to San Diego in February 1980, the Screaming Eagles led the Airwing in traps, hours, and sorties flown, with a completion rate of 107%. VF-51 was awarded the Chief of Naval Operations Annual Safety Award for FY-79, and further distinguished themselves by again winning the coveted Battle E . Deploying again for WESTPAC Indian Ocean in April 1981 the Eagles continued to set more records. Flying more hours than any West Coast Fighter Squadron during a single month, in June 1981 VF-51 flew 785 hours in only 22 scheduled flying days! VF-51 amassed over 3,400 hours, and nearly 1600 carrier arrested land- ings during this cruise. The Eagles received the COMFITAEW- WINGPAC Quarterly Safety Award for the second quarter of FY- 81. Fighting FIFTY-ONE set a new safety record, approaching eight (8) years of accident-free flight operations encompassing over 24,000 flight hours, including F-4 F-14 transition and five overseas deployments. In keeping with a long and proud heritage Fighting FIFTY-ONE proudly displays once again the Screaming Eagle insignia on our F-14 TOMCATS. At VF-51, professionalism continues.

Suarez 3821 VF-m VF-m 383 Attack Squadron THIRTY-SEVEN was officially established as an A-7A squadron in July 1966 under the direction of Com- mander James A. Burnett. The Bulls became operational in December 1967, and a year later boarded USS KITTY HAWK (CV 63) and deployed to the Western Pacific, arriving on Yan- kee Station in January 1969. The squadron conducted combat operations for the ensuing eight months, returning to Cecil Field in September 1969. The following April saw VA-37 embarked on USS SARATO- GA (CV 60) as part of Carrier Air Wing THREE. In June SARA- TOGA joined the Sixth Fleet as the Bulls began their first Mediterranean cruise. The squadron returned to Cecil Field in November 1970. In June 1971, VA-37 rejoined SARATOGA and commenced a second Mediterranean cruise and returned in October of the same year. Following a short turnaround, VA-37 embarked on SARA- TOGA once again to conduct the Operational Readiness In- spection in preparation for a third Mediterranean cruise. However, due to intensifying combat operations in Vietnam, the ship and air wing underwent an Emergency Recall and sailed for the Western Pacific in April. Arriving on Yankee Station in May 1972, the Bulls commenced nine consecutive months of combat operations, flying 2,800 missions and drop- ping 3,100 tons of ordnance. During this cruise, the command passed the 10,000 accident-free flight hour milestone. The Bulls remained aboard SARATOGA for the next four Mediterranean cruises, these taking place during the winter of 1974-75, the first half of 1976, the last half of 1977, the winter of 1978-79, and its seventh Mediterranean cruise commencing in October of 1980. Returning to Cecil Field in August 1980, the squadron began a series of exercises and detachments including the LATWING Three Day War Exercise and Bombing Derby, a highly suc- cessful Red Flag Detachment to Nellis AFB in Las Vegas, and another outstanding Three Day War . The Bulls also partici- pated in a Conventional Weapons Technical Proficiency In- spection in May and passed with flying colors, scoring the highest grade in LATWING ONE history. June of 1981 saw the Bulls at NAS Fallon, Nevada, for the Weapons Deployment. Once again VA-37 walked away with the Battleaxe Award in the CVW-3 Bombing Derby taking first place in three of the six events. The Bulls deployed aboard USS JOHN R KENNEDY (CV 67) in January 1982, passing through the Mediterranean Sea, The Suez Canal and into the Indian Ocean with Commander L. A. Farr as Skipper and Commander Bob Ramsay as Executive Officer The squadron took part in numerous drills and train- ing exercises while deployed in the Northern Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean. Shortly after transiting northwards through the Suez Canal in early June 1982, JOHN E KENNEDY became the ready carrier off the coast of Lebanon for the first two weeks of the recent crises in that area. Upon being relieved on station, JFK proceeded to several short port visits and at-sea training exercises, followed by the long-awaited return home in July. In August the squadron detached for two weeks to NAS Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico for exercises with USS MAHAN. On October 1st the squadron joined CVW-15 and went to NAS Fallon, Nevada for two weeks of tactical flying before deploy- ing aboard USS CARL VINSON (CVN 70). The Bulls began 1983 at sea in the Caribbean aboard VINSON for Type Training I and II. While inport St. Thomas, CDR Bob Ramsay became Raging Bull Commanding Officer and CDR Brian Lehman joined the squadron as Executive Officer The squadron re- turned to Cecil Field for three weeks in February then left March 1st for Type Training III, the ORE, and began an around the world cruise. During the eight month deployment over 3,000 hours and 1,500 sorties were flown, over 125 tons of ordnance and 20,000 rounds of ammunition were expended and five continents were visited. The squadron returned to Jacksonville on 29 October 1983. 384 VA-37 CDR R.L. Ramsay CDR B.L. Lehman LCDR C.C. Humberd LCDR EX. Rudolph LCDR E.L. Standridge LT RW. Dawson LT W.K. Jansson LT C.H.

Rose AMHAA B.E Sandmann AA EE Tavis AQAA M.A. Wright VA-371391 VA The primary raison d ' etre for mighty aircraft carri- ers such as the USS CARL VINSON is to project Ameri- can power both at sea and ashore. Nothing typifies that power better than the Gunslingers of Attack Squadron ONE HUNDRED FIVE and their A-7E Corsair Aircraft. The multi-mission A-7E Corsair II has been unparal- leled in its ability and effectiveness to perform the many roles of which it has been tasked. Unequaled in the area of precision ordnance delivery, it is also frequently called upon in the areas of surface search and surveilance, in- flight refueling, air superiority, mining, and close air support. Originally commissioned in May 1952, the Guns- lingers quickly established and have maintained a repu- tation as one of the premier Light Attack squadrons in the United States Navy. They have distinguished them- selves in combat in the skies of both Korea and Southeast Asia and have served on the decks of four modern carri- ers; USS SARATOGA, USS KITTY HAWK, USS JOHN E KENNEDY, and USS CARL VINSON. The squadron ' s excellence has been recognized through the years: It was the recipient of the 1969 and 1982 CNO Aviation Safety Awards; it received the Battle Efficiency E of Com- mander Naval Air Force, U.S. Atlantic Fleet in 1955, 1956, 1970, 1975, and 1977; i n 1970 it won a Meritorious Unit Commendation for participation in Middle East Contin- gency operations; in 1972 it won a Navy Unit Commen- dation for combat operations in the Vietnam Conflict; and in 1980 won a Meritorious Unit Commendation for outstanding service while embarked on USS SARATO- GA. Additionally the squadron was awarded the coveted RADM Clarence Wade McClusky Award for the out- standing Attack Squadron in the Navy in 1977. During peacetime, the 105th has continued to be at the forefront of Naval Aviation by developing tactics, setting records, and being selected by NASA to fly the Space Shuttle profile at the Kennedy Space Center. Joining Carrier Air Wing FIFTEEN in October 1982, CDR Bubba Brodsky led his squadron onto the USS CARL VINSON for an around the world cruise. The pride and professionalism of the officers and men of the 105th were important elements in helping the squadron to achieve numerous awards and special recognition. Specific accomplishments included several major exer- cises demonstrating the effectiveness and versatility of carrier aviation, and an unprecedented 1,072 consecutive sorties launched without a miss. In September 1983, VA- 105 surpassed 48 months and 20,000 hours accident free, proving that they are a squadron of perfectionists in a profession that accepts nothing less. Throughout its history, the Gunslingers have contin- ually strived for excellence in all areas of carrier aviation. Its past operational record illustrates that VA-105 contin- ues to be the premier example of a fully capable, combat- ready squadron able to project power and American re- solve during times of war or peace. The spirit of Light Attack prevails in the heart of every Gunslinger. 392 VA-105 CDR R.G. Brodsky CDR D.A. Weiss CDR R.A. Eason CDR M. Smith LCDR W.N. Deaver, Jr LCDR E.J.

Ritch AA B.A. Smith AR PN. Kaye VA-105 401 The VA-52 Knightriders trace their ancestry back to Reserve Fighter 884, originally commissioned at NAS Olathe, Kansas, shortly after World War II. On 23 February 1959, VA-52 was created and later made their first deployment aboard USS TICONDEROGA (CVA-14) in March of 1960 flying the A-1 Skyraider. During the next seven years the Knightriders made six additional deployments to the Western Pacific aboard USS TI- CONDEROGA as members of Carrier Air Wing Five. In August of 1964, VA-52 became one of the first squadrons to participate in retaliatory strikes against North Vietnam. During the squadron ' s SPAD era the squadron was awarded the CNO Safety award in 1960 and 1963 as well as the Battle Efficiency Pennant for 1961. In June of 1967 VA-52 ' s home port was transferred to NAS Whidbey Island, Washington, where they began transit ion to the all-weather A6A Intruder With new aircraft, they then deployed aboard USS CORAL SEA with CVW-15 to the Vietnam theater in September 1968. The squadron returned to Whidbey Island in April 1969 only to return for a fifth time to Vietnam in December 1970. On 16 July 1971, the Knight- riders returned home for a well deserved rest. On 9 January 1972, the Knightriders left for a one month deployment for carrier refresher train- ing on USS KITTY HAWK but did not return to NAS Whidbey Island for 11 months! In April the North Vietnamese Army marched across the Demilitarized Zone in an invasion of South Vietnam. The Knightriders with Air Wing ELEVEN began the sustained air operations over North Vietnam in over three years. During the entire cruise VA-52 averaged over 1000 hours per month, including one period where they flew 1300 hours in a 26-day span. Over 3000 sorties were flown against various targets in North and South Viet- nam. Over 12,000,000 pounds of ordnance were delivered and 9,000,000 pounds of fuel were transferred during the 160 days of combat operations. As a result of their mini-cruise extension, VA-51 had become the most decorated squadron in the history of the A-6 Intruder. Due to the squad- ron ' s sustained efforts the Knightriders were awarded the Naval Air Force Pacific Fleet Battle Efficiency Pennant for 1973. The Knightriders set sail on 23 November 1973 for their first peacetime cruise in over ten years. They returned home in July of 1974 and under- went the transition to the A-6E, being the first West Coast Squadron to do so. On 21 May 1975, the squadron took its new A-6E ' s aboard USS KITTY HAWK for another peacetime cruise. Upon return to Whidbey on 14 December 1975, the Knightriders began transitioning to the A-6E CAINS Aircraft, an advanced version of the A-6E. In October, 1977, VA- 52 started its third peacetime cruise with Carrier Airwing ELEVEN aboard USS KITTY HAWK. VA-52 returned to Whidbey on 14 May 1978, and on 1 July 1978 joined Air Wing FIFTEEN. In May of 1979 the squadron headed west again and on 21 November, under orders of President Carter sailed into the Indian Ocean in response to the Iran hostage crisis. The KITTY HAWK remained on station in the Arabian Sea until 24 January 1980, returning to NAS Whidbey Island on 24 February 1980. VA-52 began to renew its fleet readiness for the next WESTPAC cruise in April 1981. During work-ups the squadron won the COMMATVAQ- WINGPAC Bombing Competition for November 1980, January, Februay and April through December 1981, and recorded a 94.9 grade on their Operational Readiness Evaluation. In early 1981, as a result of the squad- ron ' s outstanding safety record the Knightriders were awarded the 1980 CNO Safety Award. On 1 April 1981 the Knightriders set sail for points west onboard USS KITTY HAWK. The seven month deployment included two 60-1- day line periods in the Indian Ocean. During both June and August the squadron flew over 700 hours, the most flight hours in a month since the Vietnam War The Knightriders returned to Whidbey Island 23 November 1981 for a j well deserved rest. The squadron underwent extensive training while | converting to the A6E TRAM. The TRAM turrets give the squadron a I forward looking infared and laser ranging and designating capability. The squadron also participated in two phases of the operational evaluation of ! the Navy ' s new F A-18 aircraft. 1 On 1 March 1983 the squadron left Norfolk aboard USS CARL VINSON ! (CVN-70) as part of the first Airwing to deploy on the Navy ' s newest | carrier. During the Operational Readiness Evaluation the squadron earned j the grade of outstanding, the highest possible. This cruise saw the Knight- ; riders operate in the Carribean and Mediterranean Seas as well as the Atlantic Ocean for the first time in the squadron ' s history. After rounding • the Cape of Good Hope, the squadron spent two 60-1- day line periods in ' the Indian Ocean. Before returning to Whidbey in October 1983, the squadron won the tailhook award for the best landing grades in the. Airwing and passed seven years accident free. 402 VA-52 CDR B.V. Wood CDR D.L.

In the spring of 1961 the squadron embarked aboard USS KEARSARGE (CVS-33) and, while aboard, earned the CNO Safety Award. In October 1962, the squadron assisted in recovery of the MA-8 MERCURY space cap- sule. Another recovery, for the MA-6 MERCURY space capsule, was made in 1963 with assistance of VS-29 air- craft. In December 1964, the squadron returned to San Diego after a WESTPAC deployment to begin transition to the S2E aircraft. VS-29 deployed to WESTPAC for the next four con- secutive years. While on Yankee station a total of 209 air medals were earned by aircrew. The squadron was also awarded the Meritorious Unit Commendation in 1967. Throughout 1970 and 1971, the squadron actively took part in ASW exercises operating from USS TICONDER- OGA (CVS-14) in the Pacific and from USS WASP (CVS- 18) in the Atlantic. During a period from July 1972 through June 1975 the squadron was based ashore at NAS North Island await- ing transition to the S-3A Viking. The squadron complet- ed jet transition and received her first Viking aircraft in January 1975. USS ENTERPRISE (CVN-65) was the next home for the Dragonfires . The squadron returned to WESTPAC as a part of Carrier Air Wing FOURTEEN where another squadron first was achieved when two S-3A ' s completed a transoceanic flight of 1,700 miles from the ship to Diego Garcia. VS-29 returned home to NAS North Island in March 1977, and in July became the first S-3A squadron to join Carrier Air Wing TWO USS RANGER (CV-61). After deploying in February 1979, VS-29 was visited by CNO who awarded the squadron the 1978 CNO Safety Award. This award marked the eighth consecutive year and over 30,000 accident-free flight hours. In April 1980, VS-29 joined her third airwing. Carrier Air Wing FIFTEEN, and began preparation for deploy- ment on USS KITTY HAWK (CV-63). While deployed, the squadron earned the Navy Expeditionary Medal. VS- 29 was also instrumental in the rescue of Vietnam refu- gees and earned the Humanitarian Service Medal. In May of 1982, VS-29 moved Cross-Country to tem- porarily join Carrier Air Wing EIGHT and participate in the initial shakedown cruise of her new home, USS CARL VINSON (CVN-70), the newest and most capable ship in the Navy. A remarkable sortie rate was accom- plished, (100 of 101 flights). In January of the following year, VS-29 returned to the East Coast as part of Carrier Air Wing FIFTEEN once again to board CARL VINSON for an Around the World Cruise . The squadron is ex- pecting to return to NAS North Island in October of this year. Along with an uncounted number of individual awards for outstanding performance of duty, VS-29 has been awarded the following awards: CNO Safety S in 1961, 1973, and 1978; the COMNAVAIRPAC Battle E in 1965, 1966, and 1971; and the Arnold Jay Isbell Award in 1965, 1967, 1971, 1973, 1976, and 1981, and the Golden Wrench Award for 1981. 4121 VS-29 CDR J.K.

Zint VS-29 421 VAQ- 1 34 Tactical Electronic Warfare Squadron ONE THIRTY FOUR was established at NAS Alameda, California as an EKA-3B Skywarrior squadron. The squadron ' s mission was electronic countermeas- ures and aerial refueling. VAQ-134 began its first deployment as a squadron in October 1969. In February 1970, VAQ-134 received notification from Com- mander Naval Air Force, U.S. Pacific Fleet, that it had been select- ed as the winner of the Battle Efficiency E award for the com- petitive period ending December 1969. This award signified that VAQ-134 had reached the highest state of efficiency and oper- ational readiness. On 14 September 1971, VAQ-134 received notification that it had again been selected as the winner of the Battle Efficiency E award for the period ending 30 June 1971. From July 1971 to May 1972, VAQ-134 was assigned into an inactive status for the purpose of transitioning to the standard version of the EA-6B Prowler aircraft. From their new home at NAS Whidbey Island, the GARUDAS made their first EA-6B deployment aboard the USS CONSTELLA- TION in January 1973. Following a nine and one half month cruise which encompassed the end of hostilities in Vietnam, the squadron transitioned to the Expanded Capabilities (EXCAP) ver- sion of the EA-6B. Following the transition, the squadron deployed aboard the USS FORRESTAL on 2 March 1975 to the Mediterranean. Their next deployment was aboard the USS ENTERPRISE to the Indian Ocean on a WESTPAC cruise until March 1977. In June 1977, the GARUDAS transitioned to the Improved Ca- pabilities (ICAP) version of the EA-6B. In September the squadron began preparations for a second WESTPAC deployment aboard the USS ENTERPRISE. Also in September 1977, VAQ-134 received the Commander Naval Air Forces, Pacific Fleet, Battle E as the outstanding VAQ-134 squadron for the period 1 January 1976 to 30 June 1977. In March 1979, the GARUDAS were awarded the Battle Effi- ciency E for the second consecutive grading period, making this the fourth time that the GARUDAS have received this distinction. On 10 September 1979, VAQ-134 departed CONUS for the Mediterranean aboard the USS NIMITZ. After four months in the Mediterranean, VAQ-134 headed south as part of the Nuclear Power Battle Group, composed of the USS NIMITZ, USS TEXAS and USS CALIFORNIA taking up station in the Indian Ocean. After 144 consecutive days at sea, the GARUDAS and USS NIM- ITZ arrived in Norfolk, Virginia on 26 May 1980. In October 1981, after six months of workups, the GARUDAS deployed aboard the USS CONSTELLATION to the Western Pacif- ic. On 3 May 1982, the squadron participated in READIEX 82 in the Philippine Sea with USS CONSTELLATION, USS RANGER and USS MIDWAY, the first three-carrier battle group operations since World War II. On 23 May 1982, the GARUDAS returned to NAS Whidbey Island, ending a seven month deployment. On 15 September 1982, VAQ-134 joined Carrier Air Wing FIF- TEEN and completed a highly successful weapons deployment to NAS Fallon, Nevada in October 1982. The GARUDAS, command- ed by CDR T.J. Meserve, departed NAS Whidbey Island on 26 February 1983 aboard the Navy ' s newest nuclear powered aircraft carrier, USS CARL VINSON (CVN-70), for an around the world cruise that will end in CARL VINSON ' S new homeport of NAS Alameda, California. 4221 VAQ-134 CDR T.J.

Sanfoni AA J.L Van Uar AA K.J. Wright t VAQ-134 429 Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron ONE HUNDRED FOUR- TEEN ' s history began as VAW-11 Detachment Charlie . The detachment originally deployed aboard USS KITTY HAWK in September 1962 flying the ElB Tracers . In October 1965, Detachment Charlie transitioned to and was the first VAW unit to deploy with the Grumman E2A Hawkeye , again aboard USS KITTY HAWK, During this highly successful combat deployment the E2A ga ined rec- ognition for its airborne early warning capabilities and usefulness as a combat support aircraft. As a result of the growing complexity and respon- sibility of AEW support squadrons, the Chief of Naval Operations directed that all E2A detachments be commissioned as individual squadrons on 20 April 1967. VAW-IU was commissioned aboard USS KITTY HAWK while at sea in the combat zone. Commander L. H. C. Thiel, was the squadron ' s first Commanding Officer VAW-U4 contributed materially to the overall effectiveness of the KITTY HAWK Attack Carrier Air Wing ELEVEN team which was presented the Navy Unit Commendation for its efforts during that cruise. On 16 November 1967 VAW-114 again deployed to the Western Pacific on USS KITTY HAWK. When the squadron returned home on 28 June 1968, our flight crews had flown 1,829 hours and completed 546 carrier landings. For this cruise USS KITTY HAWK and Air Wing ELEVEN were awarded the Presidential Unit Citation; the only ship air wing team to have earned that high honor during the Vietnam Conflict. VAW-114 also earned the COMNAVAIRPAC Battle Efficiency E during this period. After an extensive retraining schedule in preparation for a third combat deployment, the squadron departed in October 1968 for WESTPAC, still on USS KITTY HAWK as a member of Air Wing ELEVEN. Although offensive operations over North Vietnam were suspended, 2,174 flight hours were amassed and 604 carrier landings logged while operating in support of other combat operations in Vietnam and in the Sea of Japan. The ship air wing team was awarded a second Navy Unit Commendation. USS KITTY HAWK returned to San Diego on 4 September 1969 and VAW-114 transferred to control of Carrier Airborne Early Warning Wing ELEVEN at Naval Air Station North Island, commencing a year turnar- ound, during which the squadron trained to operate the new E2B. VAW-114 departed Naval Air Station North Island on 6 November 1970 for its fourth combat deployment on USS KITTY HAWK, this time with the newer and better equipped E2B aircraft. The squadron completed its pioneer E2B cruise with a number of enviable operational and mainte- nance records culminating with the receipt of a third Navy Unit Commen- dation as part of the KITTY HAWK team. Again the major shore-based effort was aimed at the replacement, re- training, and work-up preparation necessary for another deployment. Planning and hard work paid off handsomely as the KITTY HAWK was called upon to deploy 17 February 1972 a full month earlier than sched- uled. After a brief transit of the Pacific, USS KITTY HAWK went immedi- ately to the line where she was to set the record for the most days on Yankee Station during a deployment. VAW-114 very actively participated in the intensified conflict in North Vietnam during the spring and summer of 1972. Having completed an- other very successful cruise, VAW-114 once again returned to North Island on 28 November 1972 after this squadron ' s longest deployment. After an intensive training period the squadron departed on 23 Novem- ber 1973 for its sixth deployment to the Western Pacific, this time as a mmeber of the first ship air wing team to operate as a CV in the Pacific. During this first peace time deployment for VAW-114 the tempo of oper- ations was greatly reduced. A maximum of inport time was enjoyed along with a 60 day cruise in the Indian Ocean. The squadron returned to North Island on 9 July 1974 and after a short standdown commenced another intensive turnaround training period in preparation for its seventh de- ployment to the Western Pacific aboard USS KITTY HAWK. The seventh deployment for VAW-114 to the Western Pacific aboard USS KITTY HAWK began on 21 May 1975. Operations varied from routine operations in the South China Sea to a transit of the Sea of Japan, the first by a carrier in many years. The squadron returned to its new home at Naval Air Station Miramar on 15 December 1975 and after a short stand- down period commenced an intensive training period. On 1 March 1976, VAW-114 officially became part of CVW-15 in preparation for the next deployment on USS CORAL SEA. On 12 February 1977, VAW-114 attached to CVW-15, began its eighth deployment to the Western Pacific aboard the USS CORAL SEA. Oper- ations included exercises off the coasts of California, Hawaii, Philippines, Japan, Taiwan, Korea and Okinawa. Our fly-in on 4 October 1977, was greeted by a new hangar facility built for the VAW community by Naval Air Station Miramar November 1977 marked the beginning of E2C transi- tion training when our first technicians were sent to Naval Air Station Norfolk. VAW-114 received the first E2C ' s stationed on the West Coast in June 1978 and started a turnaround period in preparation for its next deployment aboard USS KITTY HAWK. On 8 December 1982, the HAWGS celebrated their 12th year of accident free operations. During this twelve year period, the squadron logged 18,754 flight hours and 4,239 carrier arrested landings. The HAWGS, again attached to Carrier Air Wing FIFTEEN, departed Norfolk Naval Station on 2 March 1983 aboard the USS CARL VINSON (CVN-70). This will be the USS CARL VINSON ' S maiden voyage and the HAWGS first round-the-world cruise with their new aircraft. 430IVAW-n4 CDR D.K. Covington CDR W.T. Broadhurse CDR R.C. Alexander CDR PL.

White VAW-n4l435 HS-4 was commissioned on June 30, 1952 at U.S. Naval Auxiliary Landing Field, Imperial Beach, California. Since commissioning, the squadron has flown many dif- ferent types of helicopters, including the HO-3S, the HUP-2, H-19, SH-34J and the SH-3 series. The squadron is now equipped with six SH-3H turbine-powered heli- copters. HS-4 was the first ASW helicopter squadron to deploy aboard an aircraft carrier, the USS RENDOVA (CVE-14). In 1961, it became the first command in COMNAVAIR- PAC to achieve the ROUND THE CLOCK ASW capa- bility It was this achievement that earned HS-4 the title of Black Knights . HS-4 was initiated into combat operations during the 1966 WESTPAC cruise. While operating in the Gulf of Tonkin, HS-4 pilots and aircrew rescued 24 downed air- men under combat conditions, a record for an HS squad- ron during on cruise. In 1968 HS-4 deployed aboard the USS YORKTOWN (CVS-10), and was with the task force sent to the Sea of Japan at the beginning of the USS PUEBLO crisis. From late 1968 through the spring of 1970, HS-4 par- ticipated in and pioneered techniques for the APOLLO recoveries (8, 10, 11, 12 and 13). The squadron and its famous Helicopter 66 gained world-wide recognition during these missions and was awarded the Meritorious Unit Commendation. Concurrently with the APOLLO missions, HS-4 maintained ASW operational readiness, receiving a second Meritorious Unit Commendation for development of new ASW techniques while operating aboard the USS HORNET (CVS-12). During the first West Coast CV deployment aboard USS KITTY HAWK (CV-63) in 1973-74, HS-4 helped prove the CV concept which integrated helicopter and fixed wing ASW with the conventional jet fighter attack communities to form the most versatile weapons plat- form in the Pacific. HS-4 has amassed numerous awards in its 31 year history. The squadron is a six time winner of the Chief of Naval Operations Aviation Safety Award and received the Arleigh Burke Fleet Trophy in 1978. HS-4 has also earned 5 Battle E Awards and are three time winners of the Captain Arnold J. Isbell Trophy for ASW excellence. HS-4 received the Sikorsky Excellence in Maintenance Award in 1979 and 1982. HS-4 is presently homeported aboard NAS North Island, and deploys aboard the USS CARL VINSON (CVN-70) as a part of CVW-15. 436 1 HS-4 CDR T.F. Finley CDR R.M. Hanson CDR S.R. Arends CDR K.W.

Yarbrough HS-41443 VQ-1 is the Navy ' s largest operational squadron with a compliment of approximately 800 enlisted and 100 offi- cers. The squadron presently operates five different types of aircraft including the VA-3B, EA-3B, EP-3B, EP- 3E and P-3B. Its primary mission is conducting electronic reconnaissance in support of fleet operations in order to obtain information and intelligence on areas and targets of naval interest. In order to better perform its assigned missions, VQ-1 maintains detachments at various loca- tions in WESTPAC and on all aircraft carriers operating in the Pacific. With the arrival of Detachment Charlie, the CARL VINSON (CVN-70) was able to greatly extend its ability to gather vital, real-time information in support of daily operations. Time and again the Whales of VQ-1 Det Charlie provided invaluable support, continually dem- onstrating the vital need of the unique capabilities the Whales brought to the CARL VINSON. It was with many unforgettable memories that De- tachment Charlie departed the CARL VINSON in early September. 444IVQ-J p CDR C.A. Porterfield LCDR M.S. Williams LT D. Carrow LT M.R Laviano LT CD.
