We will be leaving soon for the Western Pacific. For most of us on the ship it is a time of if mixed feelings - we loolc forward to the adventure and work ahead, but dread the fact we will be leaving loved ones and many friends behind ....

The FF-1052 class vessel is configured for optimum anti-submarine performance. They are FS- pecially adept at searching out and destroying enemy submarines, but are Z so Configured for and capable of carrying out other routine destroyer tasks, suc as naval gunfire support, anti-air warfare and replenishment operations. I Since STElN's primary mission is anti-submarine warfare, her.mam arma- ment is configured to provide the optimum in ASW search, detection and kill. STEIN is equipped with an ANXSQS-26CX box-mounted sonar which is capable of multi-mode operations: the ANXSQS-35 independent variable depth sonar HVDSIJ and the LAMPS manned helicopter system, including its MAD and sono- buoy capabilities. ASW armaments include the ASROC long-range, rocket-fired torpedo, above water torpedo tubes, which can fire either MD44 or MK46 tor- pedoes: and LAMPS dropped torpedoes. In addition, for self protection and anti- air warfare, STEIN is equipped with a 5"!54 dual-purpose, rapid-fire gun, and the basic point defense missile system. The keel of USS STEIN was laid on 1 fune 1970 at Lockheed Shipbuilding and Construction Company, Seattle, Wash. She was launched 19 December 1970, and was commissioned on 8 fanuary 1972 at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton, Washington.

During time STEIN was underway for 122 days 160.570 of the time deployedl, and in port for 79 days. We pg-gpm-ed 603 meals, consisting of 120,600 individual servings, and disbursed approximately S405,000 in cash, whigh does not include monies sent out automatically on allotments or withholding programs. Finally, sailors spent approximately 662,000 man hours at work and 734,000 man hours sleeping, eating Und relaxing This equates to working 45.5070 ofthe time, a lot of work by any standard, a sure indicator of the dedication of Steinmen. During the round trip we will have steamed 31,650 miles, which equates to 147 miles per day or 1.27 times around the world at the Equator." Q as I te .

After the at sea exercises, STEIN returned to Sattahip for Christmas. The weather was perfect and many of the crew visited Bangkok, which was only three hours away by bus.

He attended grammar school in Dayton and went on to be a student at Kaiser High School. With the outbreak of World War ll, Tony Stein felt his patriotic duty and enlisted in the Marine Corps. Corporal Stein became an expert marksman and on several occasions saved the lives of him companions. On Bouganville, for instance, he knocked his com- manding officer to the ground while simultaneously firing a burst into a nearby treetop in which a japan- ese sniper was concealed. Before the end of the cam- paign, he had singlehandedly eliminated four other snipers. The events of 19 February 1945, the day of the ini- tial assault on lwo lima, climaxed the wartime career of Corporal Stein. Stein's Battalion had managed to isolate the hill be taking the narrow isthmus at the foot of Suribachi, but then became entrapped in a blazing lapanese Crossfire which pinned down the entire unit. Using his improvised aircraft weapon, Corporal Stein and his company commander, Cap- tain Grove Wilkins "stepped out across low lima as if they owned the place - and their amazing courage kept things going." Corporal Stein suffered minor injuries as his wea- pon was shot from his hands. His performance on the day of 19 February 1945 was truly instrumental in pac- ing ultimate victory. 1 Less than two weeks later he volunteered to help clear a ridge of lapanese snipers so that his company could capture an airstrip at the north end of the island. On 1 March 1945 he fell mortally wounded while charging enemy machine gun emplacements. The Medal of Honor was presented to Mrs. Tony Stein by RADM F W Pennoyer lr on 19 February 946 STEIN HERALDRY The insignia has been designed to embody symbols which depict the source of the ship's name. The four maior elements: Across the top of the shield are five 'white stars on a field of light blue lthe ribbon color of the Medal of Honorj symbolic of the Medal of Honor, the stars with one point to base alluding to the Medal of Honor pendant. The embattled scarlet and gold lyellowl bend, in the colors of the Marine Corps, are given to show strength and honor and alludes to Corporal Tony Stein, USMC, in whose honor the ship is named. The ancient mariner's "boarding-pike" is symbolic of the seas and the navy men who carried the fight to the enemy with inherent strength. The boarding-pike is golf on a field of silver. Corporal Tony Stein was born and raised in Day- ton, Ohio. The state flower of Ohio is the Red Carna- tion, imposed on the right side of the crest within a filed of white. The motto of the STEIN is "lNDOMlTABLE." lt was taken from the citation accompanying Corporal Stein's Medal of Honor: "Stouthearted and indomitable, Corporal Stein, by his aggressive initiative, sound judgment and un- quavering devotion to duty in the face of terrific odds, contributed materially to the fulfillment of his mis- sion and his outstanding valor throughout the bitter hours of conflict enhanced and sustained the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service."
