MASON CDD 852D was named in honor of Leonard F Mason, PFC, USMC who, was killed in action on the island of Guam during World War II. For his heroism Private Mason was posthumously awarded the Congressional medal of Honor. These Asian Annals are dedicated to those MASON-MEN-OF- WARS- MEN who served loyally and with great devotion to duty in the USS LEONARD F. MASON during the Western Pacifc Cruise of 1964-1966. Though the MASON has proudly carried the flag for 20 years and literally thousands of good men have served in her, this short history is dedicated particularly to those who took part in this cruise. Each and every individual has stout-heartedly and with determination contributed to an unforgettable team ejfort that brought them and this ship great distinc- tion through flawless performance over a demanding and challenging two year distant duty cruise. You have left a brilliant record for which you can always be proud. A. M. HAZEN COMMANDING OFFICER HIP'S HISTORY USS LEONARD F. MASON CDD 852J was named in honor of a Private First Class of the United States Marine Corps who gallantly gave his life while in action on the island of Guam during World War II, and was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for his bravery. Built by the Bethlehem Steel Company at Quincy, Massachusetts, her keel was laid on ,6 August 1945 and she was launched on 15 December 1945. She was commissioned at the Boston Naval Shipyard on 28iJune 1946. ' After a shakedown cruise in the Caribbean, MASON passed through the Panama Canal to join the U. S. Pacific Fleet as a unit of Destroyer Squadron THREE early in 1947. From 1947 until 1951 she completed two Western Pacific cruises and an overhaul period in the United States. On 13 December 1950 MASON departed San Diego, California, to join Task Group 96.7 for anti-submarine duty. In the middle of May 1951, she was assigned to Task Force 95 operating off the Korean Peninsula. The last two weeks of May were spent participating in the seige of Wonsan. During this time MASON maintained continuous bombardment of enemy railroad and highway bridges, tunnels, and troop concentrations. Although she received no damage, her five inch guns infiicted much injury on Communist Forces. In June she performed blockade duties and operated with a British carrier force off the west coast of Korea, returning to the United States for the latter part of the year. ' V I MASON departed on her fourth cruise to the Western Pacific in February 1952. Operating again in Wonsan Harbor and along the eastern coast of Korea, her guns fired almost 2,000 rounds of ammunition against the enemy. For her service in Korea MASON was Awarded the Korean Service Medal with seven stars, the Korean Presidential Unit Citation, and the United Nations Service Medal. After the Korean Campaign, operations returned to normal until the Middle East crisis in November 1956 when MASON departed Long Beach, California, as part of Fast Carrier Task Force ELEVEN with the USS YORKTOWN, USS SHANGRI-LA, and Destroyer Division Thirty TWO. With various ships of the Pacific Fleet she conducted intensive training and readiness exercises during this critical period, returning to Long each in April 1957 to complete her ninth successful tour in the Western Pacific in eleven years of com- missioned service. For the next year she operated between Long Beach, Pearl Harbor, and Yokosuka, visiting numerous ports of call including Hong Kong, Subic Bay, Pago Pago, Brisbane, Sasebo, and Kao-Hsiung. In June 1958 MASON arrived in San Francisco Bay for a four day visit as part of the fiftieth anniversary cele- bration of the world cruise of the Great White Fleet. May 1960 saw MASON departing Long Beach with Destroyer Squadron THREE for her new home port Yokosuka, Japan. During the next two years she operated with the Squadron from Yokosuka in anti-submarine exercises with the Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force, amphibious operations with South Korean Marines, various exercises with units of the U. S. Pacific Fleet, and on patrol in the Taiwan Straits. In May 1961 MASON headed south from Yokosuka for Shimoda, Japan, where she participated in the annual Black Ship Festival. During the festival the ship's Landing Force took part in a parade commemorating Commodore Perry's landing at Shimoda, afterwards, several hundred Japanese braved a long boat ride to visit the ship during her Open House. In late September nearly six thousand more Japanese visitors came aboard during MASON's visit to Shimonoseki as one of Commander Seventh Fleet's representatives to the Annual Baseball game between the cities of Shimonoseki and Moji for the Admiral Kivette Trophy. On 27 November 1962 MASON broke her homeward bound Pennant and, departing YOkOSuka, headed for San Francisco, California, arriving on the 13th of December. For many Of the Crew this was the first leave at home Since May 1960. Qne month after her arrival, MASON departed San Francisco for Boston, Massachusetts, via Acapulco, Mexico and the Panama Canal. En-route frO1n the Canal She tOOk part in the search for the pirated Venezuelan freighter ANZOATEGUT. Upon the Sighting of ANZOATEGUI by other forces, MASON proceeded to Boston. From February 1963 until January 1964 MASON underwest a FRAM MK 1 conversion at Boston Naval Shipyard where she was first commissioned in 1946. During the conversion she received increased radar and communications facilities, rehabilitated living spaces, and modern anti-submarine weapons, including ASROC and DASH, Her five inch guns and engineering equipment were overhauled, her hull was given routine repairs, and a new superstructure was added. On 12 February 1964 MASON departed Boston for Long Beach, California, via the Panama Canal and Acapulco, Mexico, to rejoin Destroyer Squadron THREE in the Pacific. From Acapulco to Long Beach MASON carried the remain of John A. Sutter Jr., son of the founder of Sacramento, and U. S. Consul General in Acapulco where he died and was buried in 1897. MASON arrived in Long Beach on 9 March 1964. In April and May she trained in San Diego, California, and in June she enjoyed a final shipyard period in Long Beach On 30 June 1964 MASON departed the United States with Destroyer Division THIRTY ONE to resume her homeport in Yokosuka for a renewed period of operations in the Western Pacific Arriving in Yokosuka on 21 July 1964 MASON underwent a tender availability until the North Viet Namese PT boat attacks on the destroyers USS MADDOX and USS C TURNER JOY at which time MASON was deployed to the South China Sea with Destroyer Division THIRTY ONE as a part of Carrier Task Group 77 6 During the August operations MASON s officers and men earned the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal for the Viet Nam area of operations Returning to Yokosuka on 8 September for the brief yard period MASON agam found herself destined for the South China Sea when she departed Yokosuka on 20 September with a ship s v1s1t to Beppu MASON operated w1th Task Group 77 5 USS TICONDEROGA in the outh China Sea with a one day operational visit to Subic Bay Philippines in October MASON visited Hong Kong from 7 to 14 November UPO11 departure frOn1 HOng Kong MASON again returned to the South China Sea via a one day stop at Subic Bay on 16 November to operate with the USS CONSTELLATION and USS RANGER as part of the Task Groups 77 5 and 77 7 On 13 December MASON returned to Yobosuka where she remained for the rest of 1964 In .January 1965 MASON again left Yokosuka for a short tour of duty as CTG 72 1 Commander Taiwan Surface Patrol Group operating out of Kao Hsiung Taiwan While operating 1n these waters MASON rescued eight Chinese fishermen During the course of the Taiwan Patrol she sighted a boat and upon investigation questioned It was discovered that they had been adrift for approximately 30 hours MASON fed and clothed the men and MASON s crew after learning that the boat had to be sunk because of the navigational hazard it presented collected and presented over S 200 00 to the men in order for them to replace their boat MASON then proceeded to Keelung where the fishermen were tuned over to local authorities for further transportation to their homes The Taiwan Patrol was then reassumed On 24 February MASON arrived in Yokosuka for a rest period which lasted untll 10 March at which time she departed with USS HANCOF K for the South China Sea by now a very familiar operating area On 5 April she departed the South China Sea and headed for Subic from whence she departed for Yokoguka only to return again to Subic arriving on 2 May The 3rd of May USS HENRY W TUCKER USS GEORGE M MACKENZIE USS RUPERTUS and the MAS Saw Tabones Gunfire Range ON depart for a 2 day shore bombardment exercise at the 3 - . . , . . 1 . . . . .

MASON arrived in Yokosuka on 22 May at the completion of the 4 day orbit of GT-4 to offload the recovery equipment which had been installed prior to the flight. Station ship Hong Kong was next in MASON,s operational schedule and she assumed her duties upon arriving Hong Kong 22 June. Upon completion of duty as station ship MASON departed and joined USS ORISKANY for operations in the South China Sea before returning to Yokosuka. On 19 August CDR RALPH E. GRAHAM, USN, was relieved as Commanding Oficer by CDR A. M. HAZEN, USN. CDR HAZEN took MASON to sea on 24 August as a unit of the Gemini Recovery Force for GT-5 space shot. MASON assumed patrol east of Japan in order to assist the astronauts should an early re-entry and landing in this area be necessary. Manila was the next port of interest that was visited by MASON. This was the first time that MASON had visited this port and the four days spent there were enjoyed by all hands. From 24 September through 6 November MASON was engaged in Naval Gunfire Support off the coast of Vietnam firing over 2,500 rounds of 5738 ammunition. On 10 October Commander Destroyer Division THIRTY-TWO was embarked. His flag was flown through 11 November when MASON departed Hong Kong, B. C. C. for her homeport Yokosuka, Japan. On arriving in Yokosuka on 17 November MASON commenced a Mid-Term availability which extended through 31 December 1965. On 10 January 1966 MASON was underway again for 57 consecutive days providing NGFS in Vietnam. MASON fired over 4,000 rounds of 5 f38 ammunition while participating in Operations Masher, Double Eagle, New York, and White VVing. MASON then returned to homeport Yokosuka, Japan on 9 March getting underway again 14 March 1966 as a unit of the Gemini Recovery Force for GT-8 space shot. On 17 March 1966, in what may be considered MASON's most important mission she recovered the GT-8 space capsule and astronauts David SCOTT and Niel ARMSTRONG. MASON debarked the astronauts at Naha, Okinawa and returned to Yokosuka until 15 April when she departed for 19 days duty as station ship Hong Kong. Then MASON returned to Vietnam providing NGFS for approximately three weeks.

Perhaps the first and most impressionable introduction to Hawaii is the beautiful blue water that invites the swimmer and surfer to swarm to its many beaches. Hawaii is truly the tourists' paradise, its weather being ideal and the accommodations of its many hotels conveniently located to Waikiki and the beach areas. Although Waikiki is well known to everyone it is not the only attraction of Oahu. The 135 or so mile ride around the island reveals the most breath taking scenery One could ever wish to behold. Many of the MASON's crew pooled their money and rented either a car or one of Hawaii's colorful candy cane awninged jeeps to make the trip which included such sights as the pine. apple fields, the blowhole, the Mormon Temple and of course the not to be forgotten ascent to the Pali Ccliffj where the King of Hawaii was supposed to have been thrown from. It is alleged that he survived this great fall and thus is renowned to be immortal by his people. Hawaiiis aborigines are fast diminishing so it is 3 treat to see these happy Polynesians singing and playing their ukeleles and dancing to the music for which they are so famous. The camera fan is in his heaven here as the whole island extends opportunities for the picture snapping photographer to catch its picturesque beauty and to bring it back home with him. Many of us visited the night spots but soon found that it was too expensive for our purse, but we did enjoy the Tahitian dances given in the International Market Place each evening, compliments of the Honolulu Chamber of Commerce., K 5 m H ' 1 S , ' gif?-:'1f .'! 'r','55vg:f2'vf'f' Q 37-SPAN Yokosuka Naval Base was our home port for the two years we were in WestPac. We spent more consecutive inport time in Yokosuka than in any other port. Yokosuka has everything imaginable to offer the sailor. From large department stores downtown to the small cubicle shaped shops in 'lhieves Alley. The treet vendors with their hot cakes dry squid and unnameable concoctions of sea food lined the streets everywhere. There was always something you wanted to try hor to buy Most of the shop delicate crystal and many other Japanese products that are so much more expensive back home. Yokosuka has hundreds of bars and cabarets with such colorful nan es as the Black Cat Winkeyse Old Diajobi Texas Moms and Birdland where stateside music is played from opening to closing and the lonely sailor can reminisce and think of his girl back home. Just an hour or two by train took us to such places as Yokohama and Tokyo with their famous sights and interesting experiences. Japan is a combination of the new and the old the modern and the traditional. It is not at all un- common to see '1 girl in a cocktail dress and high heels walking down the street beside an old woman in a Kimona and wooden sandles.

M oo 'w J. l Then NOW NOW Then 1 l -ii HQNG KONG Oh for the life of a sailor, A sailing on the sea, He gets to see such wonderful ports, I'm glad that sailor is me. The highlight of every WestPac cruise is the visit to the colorful, overP0PUl3l3eCl Supermarket, i'The Pearl of the Orient where man and money soon part, Gift laden happy sailors were not regretful, The first thing to do in Hong Kong is to buy something- We had heard SO much about umY t3ll0I'H that We were anxious 'EO meet him and we didn't have to wait long for he met each liberty boat. Every tailor shop in Hong Kong had a representative on the pier all vying for our business and once you visited his shop you met the greatest salesman and finest host you will ever know. You soon buy more then you could afford and he becomes urny tailorf' Hong Kong is a fascinating place with many places to see. The beauty of the harbor can best be seen from Victoria Peak which is reached by cable car. The Tiger Balm Gardens is a must on the sight-seers itnerary. Who could ever forget the sight of Aberdeen, the floating city, where 130,000 people live and die on their little boats. A short ferry ride takes you to Kowloon from whence you can motor out through the 'K new territories and one can see Communist China just a short distance away. The harbor is strewn with myriad of sampans and junks which M, serve as the homes for families with as l many as eight and ten children who seldom i set foot on land and spend their entire lives aboard these boats. And remember all the early requests for liberty to go to Repulse Bay to watch the girls and if you were lucky meet one that had some money and wanted to share it with some sailor. A night in Hong Kong will long be re- membered. The transition from day to night literally takes place as the city comes alive with music blaring and beautiful Chinese hostesses in their slit cheongsam dresses dancing the Frug, twist, and hully gully to stateside music. Honk Kong is truly, HThe World of l Many Susie Wongs and for the members of the MASON who have been here several times, Hong Kong will not be forgotten but remembered forever. L. l. l. I. Q-. Il I..

The harbor was cluttered with bumboats, junks and small freighters but the odor was our first real awareness that we had arrived. ' We had heard much about the beautiful women and good liberty from those who had been here before. No one was disappointed as Kaohsiung proved an interesting port, where one could feel the true oriental atmosphere and see the primitive ways of its 330,000 people. The modes of transportation ranged from the Caraboo Qwater buffaloj, its main beast of burden, to the compact taxi-but as all over the far east the bicycle is predominant. Here we saw the tricycle in the form of a rickshaw, peddled by small muscular legged Chinese, which invariably carried us to and from our destinations. As most far east ports the contrast of west and east-poor and rich-old and new is most significant. The two enlisted men's clubs, the EM Club and KRC were frequented often as they offered a fine menu, inexpensive drinks and unusually good entertainment. Kaohsiung will be long remembered.
