Dedication, This Cruise Book is dedicated to the men of USS John Paul Jones and to all of the families and friends who so faithfully supported us during our six month deployment to the Western Pacific and Arabian Gulf, 13 April 1995 to 09 October 1995. As a surface combatant assigned to the Abraham Lincoln Battle Group, John Paul Jones performed superbly in every mission as- signed. Starting with the pre-deployment work-ups, you trained to become a coordinated team of tactical experts and established an internal support system that ensured the ship could go anywhere for almost any length of time. You maintained the highest levels of crew morale which not only increased the quality of life onboard but also enhanced the combat readiness of the ship. As recognized by the Battle Group and various fleet commanders, you dedicated your efforts to absolutely superb performances. The following are some specific highlights: Diversion to Hawaii to repair the starboard hub casualty requiring a dry docking and subsequent independent transit across the Pacific Ocean. Superb performance as CVN Shotgun, Plane Guard and Tomahawk Strike Platform simultaneously surviving the Gulfs summer heat. Numerous queries of vessels in the Northern Gulf during the Maritime Interception Operations and conducting two boardings in support of United Nations ' sanctions. Participation in SHAREM 110, a complex, shallow water ASW exercise in the Arabian Gulf and embarking a LAMPS helicopter, the first by an Arleigh Burke class destroyer. Set a high standard with the 5 inch gun, scoring six direct hits on the killer tomato winning the spirited surface gunnery competition. Successfully escorted thirteen Maritime Prepositioning Ships and Army War Reserve Ships through the Strait of Hormiiz supporting Operation Vigilant Sentinel. Quick recovery of the aircrew ejecting from an exploding F-14 on the return transit. Numerous Flight Quarters, Unreps, Conreps, Vertreps and many more... Those courageous volunteers back home also contributed enormously to the success of this first deployment. The actively involved support structure was headed by a superb team of Ombudsmen and a Family Support Group. Their efforts kept the families informed, supported and involved in many events helping bide the time of separation. Their periodic newsletters and the weekly changing phone messages kept loved ones in touch with the lives and events occurring both home and abroad. To all of you associated with the deployment, many thanks and congratulations for a job well done. This book is dedicated to you!
