Captain Robert S. Salin was born on August 22, 1929 in Portland, Michigan. In June of 1951 he graduated from the Naval Academy, after which he was sent to the now decommissioned heavy cruiser USS LOS ANGELES, then involved in the Korean conflict. In May of 1953, Captain Salin completed flight training and moved to a fighter squadron of VF-9rs Flying Cougars, stationed at the Naval Air Station Alameda, California. He returned to the Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland, in 1956 where he taught in the Weapons Depart- ment until 1958, at which time the Captain returned to school as a stu- dent. He completed his post graduate studies at Monterey, California, in 1960, and received a Masters Degree in Physics. Captain Salin then moved to the Readiness Air Group Squadron VA-125, at NAS Moffett Field, California, for one year and then on to attack Squadron 155 at NAS Lemoore, Calif. In 1963 he became the Nuclear Weapons Officer on the USS BENNINGTON and in 1965 re- ported to the Naval War College for one year. Captain Salin served as Commanding Officer of Attack Squadron 93 from 1966-67 and was transferred to the Pentagon in 1968 where he worked for two years in Naval Operations for Air. He was transferred to the USS CORAL SEA (CVA-43) in June of 1970 as the Operations Officer. In December 1970 Captain Salin assumed the duties of Executive Officer aboard the same vessel. Captain Salin was assigned as Commanding Officer of USS KI- LAUEA on 28 December 1971. During his Naval career Captain Salin has accumulated two Dis- tinguished Flying Crosses, the Bronze Star, ten Air Medals, four Navy Commendations, a Navy Unit Commendation and a Meritorious Unit Commendation. He has co- authored a book with Captain Stewart Zink on Russian Missiles entitled STAGE ONE. Captain Salin is married to the former Shirley Brinegar of Sonora, California, and they now make their home in Twain Harte, California, with their five children.
