V CHINA Japan % o SYDNEY f v ' ' ; : yy7? - r THK SHIPS NAMK On ' H November 1911, the keel was laid for the start of construction of the USS JKNKINS by the Federal Shipbuilding and Dr dock Co. at Kearny. New Jersey. The ship is named in honor of Rear Admiral Thornton A. JENKINS. Admiral JENKINS began his career as a midshipman in % ' SS . He ser%ed in many ships including coast sur ' ey duty where he became interested in the problems of navigation. In 1852 he was made Secretary to the Light-house Board. Early during the Civil War he commanded a variety of ships and was appointed a Fleet Captain and Chief of Staff of Farragul s Fleet. He also had command of a division in the Mobile blockade and took part in all operations in the Battle of Mobile Bay. He became Chief of the Bureau of Navigation in 1865 after having researched and written many outstanding government publications on the problems and procedures of Naval Navigation. In 1870 he was promoted to the rank of Rear Admiral and placed in command of the Asiatic station. He retired in 187. ' J and was President of the L ' .S. Naval Institute from 188H to 1885. He died in 1893 and was buried at Arlington National Cemetary. THE SHIP Originally commissioned m .U July 194L ' , JENKINS earned Battle stars in both the Atlantic and Pacific theatres of war for [wrticipating in actions at Algeria. Morocco, Casablanca.

' ' ' COMBAT OPERATIONS JENKINS first entered combat in November 1942, in support of the Allied landings at Casa- blanca. Following this action she was assigned to the Pacific Fleet in which she served out the rest of World War II. During the Solomons Islands Campaign in mid-1943, the ship is credited with having shot down three enemy aircraft and having scored at least one torpedo hit in a Japanese combatant surface ship. Later in company with the destroyers NICHOLAS, O ' BANNON, TAYLOR, and RADFORD, she assisted in the sinking of the light cruiser JINTSU by torpedo and gun fire. During the next eighteen months, JENKINS participated actively in shore bombardment missions, anti-submarine patrols, and in radar picket, convoy escort, and fighter director duties. During this period JENKINS joined a search for a downed pilot. Arriving 48 hours after the search had been in progress she picked up the pilot in good condition. Later JENKINS picked up the emergency call of a friendly bomber who was damaged, losing altitude, and lost. The ship vectored the plane in for an emergency landing on an uncompleted fighter strip, the first landing made on that field. JENKINS shot down a Japanese zero during the battle of Surigao Strait and sustained damage herself from a shore battery hit at Lingayen Gulf which killed six men and wounded seven more. In January 1945, as part of a Hunter-Killer group she assisted in the kill of an enemy submarine. A few months later she struck a mine which put her out of action for the remainder of the war. In 1947 JENKINS was placed out of commission, in reser ' e, as part of the U.S. Pacific Reserve Fleet, but was recommissioned as a DDE in 1951 incident to the Korean conflict. She participated in Korean and Formosan Patrols and did some shore bombardment in support of U.N. troops during the Korean hostilities. She returned to Pearl Harbor in 1952 where she has been homeported ever since. CAPTAIN D.J. GARRISON Commander Destroyer Division 253 CDR Williom R.

WAVE OFF MAIL CALL Hawaii is Pele ' s creation, formed of lovo tempered by sea and time. It is believed by the Hawaiians that Pele, Goddess of Fire, lives in the Fire Pit of Kilaueo Volcano. For long periods she slumbers, peaceful and quiet, then with a mighty shout of rage Pele awakens and sends blankets of molten stone racing down the slopes of Kilaueo. The Kilaueo Volcano erupted on December 1, 1959 spouting to on estimated 1700 feet, on altitude record for the island. On November 14, 1959 the Volcano erupted and threw lovo, bright orange in color, in 75 feet high columns. Her furious display of might is an awesome sight to behold, but even the fury of the islonds is matched by the flaming release of Weapon ALFA. USS ARIZONA MT.
