Commissioned on October 27, 1961, Constellation sailed west to her homeport of San Diego in July of 1962. On August 4, 1 964, the American destroyers Maddox and Turner Joy were attacked by North Vietnamese patrol boats in the international waters of the Gulf of Tonkin. Constellation, visiting Hong Kong on a regularly-scheduled port visit, set sail immediately and began launching strikes against heavily fortified North Vietnamese positions, engaging naval targets and shooting down enemy aircraft. The first American aces of the Vietnam War, LT Randall Cunningham and LTJG Willie DriscoU of Fighter Attack Squadron 96, flew off Constellation ' s decks. Their success came during the ship ' s seventh WESTPAC - her sixth combat cruise. For her actions in Southeast Asia, Constellation was awarded the Presidential Unit Citation. In 1965, Connie was redesignated CV from CVA following modifications to her flight deck and equipment which enabled the ship to deploy with S-3 A Viking (anti-submarine) and F-14 Tomcat (fighter) aircraft. In 1982, Constellation returned to the yards, this time in Bremerton, Washington. Naval aviation had undergone vast changes since 1961, and when Connie came out of the yards in 1984, two weeks early and under budget, she was fully modernized. One facet of the ship ' s upgrade was the ability to carry the Navy ' s newest strike fighter, the F A- 1 8 Hornet. During WESTPAC 87, Constellation once again found herself in the limelight, this time in the role of providing vital air cover for the escort of U.S.-flagged tankers through the Persian Gulf. In February 1990, Constellation departed San Diego, returning to the East Coast for a three-year overhaul. The $800 million Service Life Extension Program, completed in the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard in March 1993, added 15 years to the carrier ' s operational life. The overhaul saw upgrades to virtually every major system on the ship, from the galleys to the enginerooms, and the flight deck to the anchors. Constellation returned to San Diego on July 22, 1993, following her third transit around Cape Horn at the tip of South America. From her birthplace at the New York Naval Shipyard to her homeport of San Diego and her rebirth at Philadelphia, from the troubled water of the Gulf of Tonkin to the North Arabian Sea, USS Constellation has written an impressive record for the world to see. And it ' s been a stellar record, to say the least. W-. - ' ¥ - r.

Robinson 50 i The mission of the Air Department is to conduct aircraft handling, launch and recovery operations, including Visual Flight Rules (VFR) control of airborne aircraft, and to provide services and facilities for the maintenance and fueling of airc raft so that embarked squadrons and detachments can most effectively conduct air operations in the application of their military potential. Of equal importance is the damage control role of the aircraft crash and firefighting teams on the flight deck and in the hanger bays. As a national strategic asset, the Constellation is charged with protecting power from the sea. Six-hundred strong, the Air Department and what it does is what people think of and come to see when they think of an aircraft carrier. The ballet of shirts - yellow, blue green, red, purple and white - is the magic behind the mystery of the flight deck. With an average age of just under 20 years old, it is the young men of the flight deck, under the watchful supervision and guidance of a few more experienced Leading and Chief Petty Officers, who turn inanimate jets into an instrument of National Policy for the citizens and President of the United States, and if need be, a formidable source of power for any operational commander. 2 Throughout the cruise, there was tremendous pride and high morale as the Air Department, led by Commanders Dan Darth Cain and Mike Turbo Wertz, performed its duties. During a cruise which included extensive high tempo operating periods, it all came down to a do it right the first time attitude. The Air Department ' s performance during this Western Pacific deployment in support of Operation SOUTHERN WATCH in the Arabian Gulf, speaks for itself, said Air Boss, CDR Cain.

Frisby The Dental Department provided expert dental care to the ship ' s company, em- bardked airwing. and staff. On various oc- casions during the cruise, the department treated patients from other battle group members both aboard Connie and on their respective ships by way of a portable dental unit - NO NOTICE, NO PROBLEM. Den- tal ' s purpose was to insure the highest pos- sible state of dental health to the crew, so that they could work at peak efficiency in support of the command power projection mission. The department, comprised of five officers and 15 enlisted, provided a full range of services to include oral and mazillofacial sur- gery, prosthodontics, endodontics, peri- odontics, restorative and preventive dentist- ry. This last feature, which encompasses an aggressive recall program and an active pro- phylaxis program, was the bedrock of the department ' s efforts to keep patients healthy. Equipped with the latest in dental equipment, both clinically and in the modern prosthetic laboratory, the department was able to handle all maladies without further referral. Totally integrated into the fiber of the ship, the men of the Dental Department were in- volved in volunteering for COMREL proj- ects, managing MVVR funds, running the Navy-IVIarine Corps Society Fund Drive, editing the Crusiebook, coaching the ship soccer team, training crew members in CPR, manning Battle Dressing Stations and Mass Casualty Drills with the Medical Depart- ment.

ARTMENT 145 MAINTENANCE The Maintenance Department has several responsibilities that are vital to the USS Constellation ' s mission. These include the co- ordination of all repairs by outside activities, when beyond the shipboard capabilities, work package preparation and review for major ship overhauls, and the technical support to all workcenters onboard. All maintenance actions required onboard Constellation are routed via the Maintenance Department of its four divisions. Maintenance, Material, Management (3-M) Divsion The 3-M Office spearheads the material readiness onboard Connie. Utiliaing the Organizational Maintenance Management System (OMMS) program on the SNAP III computer system, the 3-M Office screens, approves, and or disapproves jobs submitted by the 1 79 workcenters. 3-M monitors the implementation and conducts train- ing for the ship ' s Planned Maintenance System (PMS), a preventive maintenance program. Additionally, the Constellation ' s Total Qual- ity Leadership (TQL) Program is currently coordinated through this office. Quality Assurance (QA) Division The QA ensures consistent quality repairs and maintenance to equipment onboard Connie as well as throughout the Constellation battle group. The QA office initiates and tracks controlled work packages, conducts audits, and trains shipboard repair personnel. Additionally, QA is staffed with two Non-Destructive Test (NDT) inspectors. They perform dye penetrate inspections, and ultra sonic and magnetic particle tests on various welds, piping, and structural components to ensure components repairs meet the Navy ' s stand- ards. Maintenance Support Center (MSC) Division MSC reports all maintenance actions required onboard Constel- lation. MSC manages a technical library which contains technical manuals and drawings for the repair of all equipment on board. MSC validates all new equipment and systems received as upgrades or replacements. This validation team also verifies each data el- ement pertaining to the new equipment ensuring database integrity and repair parts support by the ship ' s supply system. As the de- partment ' s main customer service center, MSC assists the ship ' s department in locating and acquiring proper repair parts, drawings, and technical references. Habitability (HAB) Division The HAB Division is responsible for the renovation and upkeep of spaces aboard Constellation. These spaces range from the Com- manding Officer ' s inport cabin to one of the main machinery rooms in Engineering. The Habitability Division is composed of personnel TAD from various departments. This cohesive team insulates, paints, and tiles compartments, passageways, and offices throughout the ship. They are a major contributor to the morale of the crew and are constantly commended for their efforts. Their work is never done. DPCM George G. Mullen MMCS Eduardo B. Bassig EMI Bienvenido M.

The department consists of a permanent Safety Officer, Industrial Hygienist and seven enlisted team members representing various significant ratings onboard. Our mission is to help ensure the safety of shipmates by monitoring flight operations, underway replenishment, ordnance, damage control and propulsion evolutions as well as workcenter surveillance and deck plate safety throughout the ship. Safety awareness is an unremitting job; our petty officers act as instructors to teach newly reporting crewmembers and reenlighten the old salts.

J A - £:-lJJ  BADAWiNV Commander, Destroyer Squadron Seven (COMDESRON SEV- EN) served as Anti-Surface Warfare Commander, Anti- submarine Warfare Commander, Maritime Interception Com- mander, Suface Ship Screen Coordinator, and Lamps Element Coordinator throughout the Constellation Battle Group ' s workup and deployment. The 13 man staff was augmented by three personnel assigned temporary additional duty by Commander, Naval Surface Forces, U.S. Pacific Fleet as well as an Acoustic Specialist from the Office of Naval Intelligence. Additionally, the staff relied on personnel from Constellation ' s Surface Module and Anti-Submarine Module who were fully integrated into staff watch sections and supported DESRON operations. m •IE r 302 Even with the augmentees and a close working relationship with Constellation, the task was large. The DESRON worked with every ship and aircraft in the Battle Group to ensure the Battle Group Commander had a complete tactical picture of the sur- rounding waters. This task required regularly adjusting the po- sitions of the escort ships, and CVW-2 aircraft search plans, as appropriate to the many areas of the world through which the Battle Group sailed. The primary thrust of the DESRON ' s efforts in the Gulf was the coordination of U.S. and multi-national forces in the enforcement of U.N. sanctions against Iraq by conducting Maritime Inter- ception Operations (MIO). As the Maritime Interception Com- mander, DESRON SEVEN supervised the ships and aircraft assigned to monitor shipping entering and departing Iraqi waters. These vessels were monitored and questioned about their des- tination and cargo. Ships which were suspected of violating sanc- tions were boarded to confirm whether or not they were engaged in illegal trade with Iraq. If the vessel was unable to confirm it had a legal cargo, it was diverted to a nuetral port in the Gulf. The host government of the port to which a ship was diverted then in- vestigated the claims and took appropriate legal action to ensure compliance with U.N. resolutions. DESRON SEVEN ' S team effort with Constellation and Carrier Airwing TWO was crucial to a successful deployment.

The Lancers ' mission is to suppress enenn air defenses as well as defend the battle group through long-range surveillance and countertargeting of enemy reconnaissance and bomber aircraft. The Lancers maintain four EA-6B Prowlers. Operating the Prowler is four man crev consisting of a pilot, navigator, and two electronic countermeasure officers. Their jets are equipped to carry any combination of radar jammers. AGM-88 High Speed Anti-Radiation Missiles, and fuel tanks. During this deployment, the Lancers provided complete jamming and HARM coverage for Air Wing and coalition missions over Southern Iraq in support of Operation Southern Watch. During this time, the Lancers reinforced their hard-charging, hard-hitting reputation as the leaders in Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD) first established in 1972 when they deployed to Southeast Asia aboard USS ENTERPRISE. The Lancers currently have the SEAD lead in Carrier Air Wing TWO. forging multiple defense supression assets (radar jammers, communication jammers, decoys, anti-radiation missiles, and cruise missiles) into an integrated battlegroup plan to create a sanctuarv for strike aircraft.

Philnian XO Strike Fighter Squadron 151 (VFA-151), the Strike Fighting Vigilantes , currently attached to Carrier Air Wing TWO (CVW-2), is homeported at NAS Lemoore. CA. The full squadron complement is 22 officers, 12 chief petty officers and 190 enlisted men. The squadron is currently flying the Navy ' s Night Strike Fighter, the FA-18C Hornet. VFA-1 5 1 was originally established as Fighter Squadron Two Three in 1 948 at Naval Auxiliary Air Station Oceana, Virginia. VF-23 was redesignated VF-151 in 1959. VF-151 was redesignated VFA-151 in 1986. The squadron has been attached to Air Group Two (CVG-2), Air Group Nineteen X-ray (CVG-19X), Air Task Group Two (ATG-2), Air Task Group Four (ATG-4), Air Group Wing Fifteen (CVG W-1 5) Air Wmg Sixteen (CVW-16), and Air Wing Five (CVW-5). The squadron has operated from the decks of CORAL SEA (CV A-43), BOXER (CV-21), PRINCETON (CV- 27). ESSEX (CV-9), YORKTOWN (CVA-10). KEARSAGE (CVA-33), HORNET (CVA-12), HANCOCK (CVA-19), from 1971 to 1991 MIDWAY (CV-41), and CONSTELLATION (CV-64). Since establishment, the Strike Fighting Vigilantes have continually been on the forefront of Naval Aviation. After an initial Mediterranean deployment, the squad- ron was sent to the Western Pacific for the Korean War. Three combat cruises were highlighted with the Inchon invasion, and the recapture of Seoul and Kimpo airfields. The Vigilantes continued to refine jet carrier aviation, leading AIRPAC units with the transition to the F2H3 Demon in 1959 and the F-4B Phantom II in 1964. From 1965 to 1973 the Vigilantes participated in everv major operation of the Vietnam War. From Flaming Dart I to Linebacker 11 , the Vigilantes made more combat deployments (7) and spent more time on the line (927 days) than anv other carrier-based unit - including the longest deployment of the Vietnam War (208 days). Only six months after returning from their seventh consecutive war cruise, the squadron embarked on USS MIDWAY with CVW-5, departing for Yokosuka, Japan to become the first and only permanently forward deployed carrier and airwing. The Vigilantes were forward deployed on permanent call from 1973 to 1991. Operations during that time included the evacuation of South Vietnam, first Naval forces to respond to the U.S. hostage crisis in Iran, continuous Indian Ocean deployments ERNEST WILL operations since 1979, first unit to respond to the shootdown of KAL 007 in 1983, Seoul ' 88 Olympics presence, and Operation CLASSIC RESOLVE. The Vigilantes conducted two unprecedented overseas tran- sitions: to the F4J in 1 977. and the F-4S in 1 98 1 . In 1 986, the Vigilantes were the last of two Navy F-4 squadrons, having won the Battle E for the last three consecutive competitive cycles of their Phantom II reign. Redesignated VFA-151. the Vigilantes completed the fastest ever transition to the Hornet and were back aboard USS MIDWAY in six months. In October 1 990, VFA- 1 5 1 , as part of Battle Group Alpha, deploved in support of Operation DESERT SHIELD. On January 17, 1991, VFA-151 participated in the initial air strikes of Operation DESERT STORM and remained on station with CTF- 154 until the cessation of hostilities. The Vigilantes were key plavers in Operation DESERT STORM, delivering over 817,000 pounds of ordnance on targets in Kuwait, Iraq, and the Northern persian Gulf A legendary era ended in August 1991 when VFA-151 and CVW-5 departed Yokosuka, Japan on USS MIDWAY ' S last at-sea period, heading east to hawaii. Once inport Pearl Harbor, the Vigilantes bid farewell to CVW-5 as the airwing moved to MIDWAY ' S replacement. USS INDEPENDENCE. The squadron stayed onboard USS MIDWAY all the way to San Diego, where she was decommissioned under a Vigilante fly-by. In February ' 1993, the Vigilantes completed their transition to the FA-18C, Lot XV. In May 1993 the Vigilantes deployed aboard the USS Constellation (CV-64), and transited to Connie ' s new homeport, San Diego. California. In early 1994, the Vigilantes began a very busy work up schedule with CVW-2, preparing for their present Western Pacific deployment aboard Constellation. Included among the many achievements in VFA-15rs proud history are the receipt of one Presidential Unit Citation, four Navy Unit Commendations, five Meritorious Unit Commendations, one Navy Expeditionary Medal, three Armed Forces Ex- peditionary Medals, one Navy Expeditionary Medal, three Armed Forces Expe- ditionary Medals, one Humanitarian Service Medal, four Battle E s and five Safetv S ' s .

Flock CO VMFA-323 Marine Fighter Attack Sqyadron 323, flying the latest version of the F A- 18C Hornet, joined Carrier Air Wing TWO in January 1994. Replacing VF-1, the Death Rattlers were one of three Hornet squadrons that formed the backbone of the air wing of the future. Known as the Snakes, the Marines of VMFA-323 bring with them a unique combination of capabilities ranging from an expertise in Close Air Support to their standard emphasis in the air-to-air arena. Commanded by LTCOL James Flock, himself a veteran of two previous cruises, and flying the finest multi-roll aircraft in the world today, the Snakes quickly adapted to the carrier environment. The ability to quickly flex between the air-to-air and air-to-ground roles enabled the Death Rattlers to enforce the No Fly Zone as well as conduct target aquisition sorties in Southern Iraq. From the most junior Marine to the Commanding Officer, the Marines of VMFA- 323 continued the traditions of their predecessors and upheld the Snake motto: Come to Fight - Come to Win. fc « T Lieutenant Colonel Ray W.

It was then that the Naval Reserve Week-End Warrior Squadron. VC-892, was pressed into active service to meet the needs of the Korean Conflict. No doubt, these businessmen, lawyers, teachers, mechanics, students, and others from all walks of life vlfho were assigned to ' i C-892 were a little apprehensive about leaving their cjviliam pursuits, but they took the call to arms with a grain of salt, hence the squadron motto was born - UM GRANO SALIS. This motto was continued after V ' C 92 was redesignated as VS-892, and after the squadron was designated as a regular fleet squadron (VS- 38) in Februar - 1 53. The motto has served to maintain squadron morale at its ever present high leveLThe squadron is ever ready to accept the bitter with the s et - with a g i! of salt. The bright and dark background of the shield represent night aha day - the hours v4 work at our task of ANTI-SUBMARINE WARFARE (ASW). Theiipper part of the patch, represents a maze indicating the complexitiesLfcf our mission. The bright blue sword, straight at the handle and ' curved at the blade, appears as if we were viewing a submerged blade through soft ripples on the surface of the water. The sword indicates our power to strike both above and below the surface of the sea. This bent sword also symbolizes the difficulty in maintaining electronic gear. The three weather symbols of fog, rain, and overcast appearing to the left of the sword indicate the all-weather capabilities of the squadron. f Commander j Jadd R. Wilburn XO LCDR James M.

The Squadron is composed of 27 officers and 1 73 enlisted men. Known as the Golden Falcons , HS-2 is an integral member of the Carrier Air Wing TWO and is homeported at Naval Air Station North Island, San Diego, CA. As the first Squadron to deploy with the Sikorsky SH-60F and HH-60H helicopters, HS-2 provides inner zone anti-submarine protection, surface surveillance, counter targeting, logistics. Search and Rescue (SAR), and Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) capability in support of the Carrier Battle Group. The SH-60F is equipped with a dipping sonar and carries a variety of sonobouys. In addition to internal stores, the SH-60 had three external pylons to carry up to two 120 gallon tanks for extended on station time and three MK 46 or MK 50 torpedoes. With the capability to process accoustical information onboard or data link information between platforms, the SH-60F is capable of detecting, classifying, tracking and destroying enemy submarines. The addition of two HH-60H helicopters to the normal HS-2 compliment of four SH-60F aircraft has provided HS-2 with the capability to conduct the additional mission of Combat Search and Rescue. Flying with the yse of Night Vision Goggles (NVG), HS-2 has the capability to rescue downed aviators at night overland behind enemy lines. Vertical replenishment is another mission performed by both types of aircraft when equipped with a cargo hook. Loads of up to 6,000 pounds may be transferred to designated shore or ship units. The Sea Hawk helicopters are an extremely valuable asset to the Carrier Battle Group both in countering the enemy submarine threat and in ' providing rescue and logistic support to the fleet. The SH-60 is quickly proving to be one of the most versatile heHeopter-s in the world, in today ' s changing world, this versatility will ensure that the SH-6G ' s continue45be a key Battle Group asset well into the next century.

Australia like no other port Connie visited during the six-month deployment. 30.000 people lined-up to tour the American aircrat ' t carrier, waiting hours for a chance to peer into her hangar and stroll the flight deck. Meanwhile, Connie sailors headed to the beautiful Australian city to see the sights and meet the fViendly people. After the short 48-hour stay, the ship was underway again and head- ing to Pearl Harbor. Hawaii. U.S.A.! •mm-iii tii )iii ki Hundreds of Constellation crewmen (left) lined the flight deck entering Sydney, while thousands (top left) of Australians line-up to visit the warship.

New-made friendships, like new wine. Age well mellow and refine. Friendships that have stood the test - Time and change - are surely best; Brown may wrinkle, hair grow gray, friendship never knows decay. For ' mid old friends, tried and true, Once more we our youth renew. But old friends, alas, may die; New friends must their place supply. Cherish friendship in f B- breai New is good, but old is best; Make new friends, but keep the old; Those are silver, these are gold. Joseph Perry Liib. Indian Ocean esi!Pac 34 ' -95 ' Pusait.
