DWIGHT D. EISENHO ER coNs'rRUc'r1o AN COMM SSIONIN he keel of the USS DWIGHT D. EISEN- HOWER QCVN-695, named after the thirty-fourth presi- dent of the United States, was laid at Newport News Shipbuilding and Drydock Company on 15 August 1970. IKE, as the ship is affection- ately called by the crew, was chris- tened and launched at 11:11 a.m. on October 11, 1975, by Mrs. Mamie Doud Eisenhower, the ship's spon- sor and widow of the President. On October 18, 1977, IKE was commis- sioned and became a part of the United States Atlantic Fleet, home ported in Norfolk, Virginia. As part of the United States Atlantic Fleet, IKE routinely de- ploys to the Mediterranean Sea to fulfill the defense commitments of the United States Sixth Fleet, but is capable of deploying anywhere in the world. After winning the Commander, Naval Air Force, U.S. Atlantic Fleet Battle Efficiency E in November 1979, IKE has set a standard of ex- cellence unmatched in the United States Navy. In addition to her Bat- tle Efficiency awards, IKE has also been awarded several Admiral Flat- ley Aviation Safety Awards.
