Naval Shipyard, Charleston, South Carolina, and subsequently reported to Com- mander Escort Squadron 10 for duty. The ship honors U. S. Navy Lieutenant Commander John lVlcCloy, who was twice awarded the Medal of Honor for meritorious service at Vera Cruz, lVlexico and during the Boxer Rebellion. NlcCloy is armed with ASROC Cantisub- marine rocketj, DASH fdrone antisubmarine helicopterj, antisubmarine torpedoes and a 3 f5O caliber dual purpose gun battery. She is equipped with the most modern communi- cations and electronic facilities to aid in carry- ing out her mission, which is to screen con- voys and operate offensively against sub- marines. She reported to her home port of Newport, Rhode Island, in January 1964, after an out- fitting period at the Boston Naval Shipyard, and has since participated in numerous fleet exercises. Additionally McCloy has played a A Q, W .-4 -111-If major role in fleet evaluation of a new generation of antisubmarine weap- ons and weapons systems. NlcCloy was deployed to Caribbean and Northern European waters as a unit of the NATO Matchmaker Three Squadron from January through May of 1967. She entered Boston Naval Shipyard in July 1967 for a onar conversion. Having completed her regular overhaul and extensive s overhaul in Nlarch 1968 and refresher training in the Caribbean in lVlay 1968, NlcCloy now has the most modern sonar and anti-submarine weapons systems available to the world's surface ships. She is being considered as a possible prototype for the Brazilian Navy's shipbuilding program. S0l! JPHERIG V' UNITAS IX Unitas IX is a combined nine nation operation that includes the United States of America and the eight major maritime nations of South Americag Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Uruguay and Vene- zuela. The theme of Unitas is teamwork and flexibility. Exercises are con- ducted in all facets of naval operations including Anti-Submarine Warfare, formation steaming and refueling and replenishment at sea. 4 Unitas provides an opportunity for the people of South America to meet North American sailors and to participate in various events with them. lt allows the navies of South American Nations and the U. S. A. to work together in multi-lateral exercises. It brings North and South Amer- icans together, in work and in play, so that each can better understand the other and thereby strengthen hemispheric solidarity.

THE YM .95 A 'X we 2 5' USS NlcCloy left Newport on 8 .luly 1968 for her first extended deployment in over a year. Her desti- nation was San Juan, Puerto Rico where she was to join USS Josephus Daniels, USS Damato and U55 Chopper to form Task Force 86 and begin Unitas IX. During the four months of Unitas operations lVlcCloy visited fourteen ports in South and Central America. ln some lVlcCloymen relaxed, saw the sights and in general had fun. ln some they worked and had little time for themselves, But each port had a different flavor about it, a different touch . . . ,fl gs, I .

X McCIoy's transit between the Galapagos Islands and Salinas, Ecua- dor, was notable for two reasons. During that time the ship celebrated its fifth anniversary and was hon- ored to have RADM J. A.

On 21 October 1968, , McCloy celebrated her fifth anniversary of being commissioned. A party was held on the mess- decks where birthday cake, ice cream and soft drinks were served. Mc- Cloy's history was briefly set forth by Captain Rog- ers as follows: Five years ago today the United States Ship McCloy was commissioned in ceremonies at the U. S. Naval Base, Charleston, 1 South Carolina. The prin- , as Cipal Speaker at those Ce- Captain Rogers cuts McCloy's birthday cake with the aid of R03 Bob remonies was the Honor- able L. Mendal Rivers Chairman of the House of Representatives Armed Services Committee At th ' ' . . I . e time of her commis- sioning McCloy was one of the newest type ships developed for the purpose of Anti-Submarine War- f1e:arIe.Clafl:JeatmitIYleci,Cloy now know that our ship has proven herself and has performed to the best of Getz who also celebrated a birthday on 21 October. USS McCloy was built by the Avondale Shipyards, Inc Westive o Louisiana Her keel was laid on 15 September 1961 and she was launched on 9 June 1963. Tlgeship is named after Lieu- tenant Commander John McCloy, S. Navy CDeceasedJ. Commander McCloy is one of the great naval heroes. He entered the Navy in 1898 as a Seaman and during the course of 30 years active service was 'twice awarded the Medal of. Honor, our nations highest award. He first received the Medal of Honor while serving as a coxswain assisting a Marine landing force during the Boxer Rebellion of 1906. Then in 1914 while a beach master for the landing force in the occupation of Vera Cruz, Mexico he was awarded his second Medal of Honor. At that time he drew enemy fire upon his own position so that the 'enemy shore batteries could be exposed and shelled out by American warships standing offshore. His actions saved the lives of many of our men on the beach. Commander McCloy served extensively in the Mine Force and while serving as Commanding Officer of USS Curlew he received his third major award. At that time Curley was engaged in the difficult and hazardous duty of sweeping for and removing the mines of the North Sea Mine Barragef' For his distinguished service he received the Navy Cross. As you can see USS McCloy was named after a great naval hero. Although the ship has never engaged in actual combat we believe that she has lived up to her name in other ways. UNITAS IX is only the second extended deployment that McCloy has made. The first, Matchmaker lll, was a com- bined NATO naval operation. McCIoy operated with ships of various European navies under the command of a Dutch Commodore. Upon being detached from the Matchmaker Squadron, the Commodore, Captain Franz Visea sent a mes- sage to McCloy which said: Goodbye to the best ship in the squadron . After Matchmaker, McCloy began an exten- sive yard period at the Boston Naval Shipyard. Lasting nine months the ship received a sonar retrofit and other minor modifications. When we left the yard we again proved our- selves - this time at Guantanamo Bay. We all remember GTMO . All the hard work and sleepless nights, but when the final exam came, the Operational Readiness Inspection, McCloy was ready, attaining an overall grade of good. Now on UNITAS McCloy has done all that has been required of her in fine style. I am sure that our succeeding cruises will be equally as successful. Happy Birthday McCloy - Many Happy Returns. The day before a ship crosses the Equator the Pollywogs, those i who have never crossed the line, attempt to take over the ship by capturing as many shellbacks, veterans of the line crossing, as possible. On IVlcCIoy the Pollywogs had their day in the sun, capturing just about every Shellback. As for the Shellbacks . . . All they were heard to be saying was Tomorrow is another day .

NEW PCDRT -F-4-Q, I QQ After a cruise that had lasted four months, in which the ship had traveled over 20,000 miles, had crossed the equator twice, and had transited both the Straits of Magellan and the Panama Canal, lVlcCloy was home. Unitas IX was a good cruise. McCloy and Mc- Cloymen made many friends in South America. But when all is said and done the most enjoyable part of any cruise is returning home. Wherever the ship may go and whatever the crew may see in the future, we know that there will be somebody waiting for us at home. It kind of makes the whole thing worthwhile. 1 I 1 -A Hi 1 A 1 v Q '1 :W 1 ,Q J 'i E 1 . I 1 T 4 4 .I 3 ' xi 13 . 9. . 1 1 'i fi s I I. P 5 , 2 sl 9 5 P: , 1 1 '1 K T, , 'ara 2 165.
