Equipped with the Harpoon missile sys- tem and 5 inch!54 caliber dual purpose rapid fire gun, STEIN is capable of lighting defensively against air and surface threats and providing naval gunfire support lor amphibious missions ashore. The keel for USS STEIN was laid on 1 June 1970 at Lockheed Shipbuilding in Seatle, Washington. She was launched 19 December 1970 and was commissioned on 8 January 1972 at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremer- ton, Washington. STEIN is powered by two automatically fired boilers which supply 1200 psi steam through dual steam turbines to a single tive bladed screw. The propulsion plant is rated at 55,000 shaft HP. STEIN's cruising radius is over 4,000 nautical miles and she is capable of a maximum speed in excess of 27 knots. STEIN has made nine overseas deployments in her 19 years of commissioned service, including the complete cir- cumnavigation of the globe in 1987. She has operated in support of national policy in the Iran hostage crisis, Iran- Iraq War, and most recently in Operation Desert Storm. STEIN has visited over thirty countries and served as a goodwill ambassador the world over. STElN's unit awards include two Meritorious Unit Citations, two Navy Expedi- tionary Medals, the Humanitarian Service Medal, and the Southwest Asia Service Medal. STEIN is scheduled to be decommissioned and transferred to the Fleet Reserve as a mobilization asset in March 1992. 'mix 2 Ships History ndomitable "For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his own life above and beyond the call of duty while serving with Company A, Ist Battalion, 28th Marines, 5th Marine Division, in action against enemy Japanese forces on Iwo Jima, in the Volcano lsiands, 19 February 1 945. When his comrades were stalled by a concentrated machine gun and mortar barrage, he gallantly stood upright and exposed him- self to the enemy's view, thereby drawing the hostile fire to his own position and enabling him to obsenfe the position of the furiously blazing hostile guns. Determined to neutralize the strategically placed weapons, he boldly charged the enemy pillboxes one by one, and succeeded in killing 20 of the enemy during the furious single handed assault. Cool and courageous under the merciless hail of exploding shells and bullets which fell to all sides, he continued to deliver the fire of his skillfully improvised aircraft type weapon at a tremen- dous rate of speed, which rapidly exhausted his ammunition. Undaunted, he removed his helmet and shoes to expedite his movements and ran back to the beach for additional ammunition, making a total of eight trips under intense fire and carrying or assisting a wounded man back each time. Despite the unrelenting savageiy and confusion of battle, he rendered prompt assistance to his platoon whenever the unit was in position, directing the tire ofa half track against a stubbom pill- box until he had effected the ultimate destruction of the enemy for- tification. Later in theday, although his weapon was twice shot from his hands, he personally covered the withdraw of his platoon to the company position. Stouthearted and indomitable, Corporal Stein, by his aggressive initiative, sound judgment, and unwavering devotion to duty in the face of terrific odds, contributed materially to the fulfillment of his mission, and his outstanding valor throughout the bitter hours of conflict sustains and enhances the highest traditions of the U. S. Naval Service.

U!- 0 Everything that happens on STEIN begins in the Fireroom, where two 1200 psi boilers convert water into the steam which is the lifeblood of the ship. Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, the ship's Boiler Techs fBTl precisely monitor and operate the ship's boilers and all their support systems, including fuel, feed water, and the complex of pumps and piping that move it all around. By the end of the deployment, the BT 's had logged nearly 4,000 hours of ensuring the engine room and generators were kept supplied with high quality steam. B Division 11 Gang omprised of eleven Machinist Mates, Enginemen, and Fire- man, A-Crang is responsible for maintaining the widest variety of equipment and spaces on the ship. STEIN'S galley equipment, laundry, diesels, boats, steering gear, air conditioning and heating equip- ment, air compressors, hot water heaters, and aviation fuel all come under A division's cognizance. lt is obvious to see how much the ship depends on A C1ang's efforts. In the desert, it was doubly important to have all equipment Cooled properly as well have air conditioning, laundry, and galley equipment in working order to preserve morale.

This phrase took on new meaning for Battle Group Bravo. ln early December 1990, BG Bravo was told to be ready on a moment's notice to deploy to the Arabian Gulf in support of Operation Desert Shield. On STEIH, that meant the Holiday leave period would have to be cut short and the ship would have to be brought up to the highest state of readiness in a very short time. Even after apparently getting the go ahead to deploy on several different occasions, STEIN and the other Battle Group ships sat in port - waiting. Finally, after numerous false starts, STEIN sailed out of San Diego on the dismal morning of 1 March 1991. After two weeks off the coast of Southern California conducting a Readiness Exercise, STEIN and BG Bravo steamed west toward the Phillipines. After a brief port call in Subic Bay, the Battle Group split up: the small boys headed for Penang, Malaysia and the large ships for ports in Thailand. Next, the Battle Group sailed for the Arabian Gulf, where we relieved the RANGER Battle Group. Multi-National Force Operations were our main task while standing by in the event of a reflash of hostilities in the regions. There were numerous port visits, including the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Oman. On our return transit, we cleansed the ship of Slimy Wogs, conducted ASW operations with U.S. Navy submarines, senfed as the Flag Ship for COMDESRON 21, and visited Thailand, Hong Kong and Hawaii. On 27 August 1991,just short of the six month mark, we returned home to a fabulous welcome. For her efforts in the Gulf Region, STEIN was awarded the Southwest Asia Service Medal and Sea Service Ribbon. SS Himitz fCVH 681 served as the Flag Ship for Commander Cruiser Destroyer Group THREE as well as Commander Destroyer Squadron 21. Deployment 55 attle Group 1' HVO TEIN did not put to sea alone. After we left San Diego harbor in the tor- rential rain, STEIN met up with the ships we would see so much of over the next six months. The Nimitz Carrier Battle Group, commanded by Commander, Cruis- er Destroyer Group THREE, Rear Admiral Phil Quast, consisted of seven ships in all. s The USS NIMITZ, with aircraft from Carrier Air Wing NINE, was the flag ship for the Battle Group. With her F-14A Plus fighters, FIA-18 and A-6 Intruder attack aircraft, H-60 helicopters, and many others, she would provide the air support and command, and control in case of reflash of hostilities in the Gulf. USSTEXAS, a nuclear powered cruiser, carried powerful Tomahawk cruise missiles, which had been used with such, great success in the Gulfrwar. y USS CHANCELLORS- VILLE, with her sophisticated AE1GiSf radarsystem, was capable of trackinghundreds of air contacts simultaneously a great advanta e , -yy, g in the congested Gulf region. duff USS, RENTZ, a guided missile frigategihad much the same mis- sion as STEIN - operate with for- eignynavies in order to build team- work that will be required in future Gulf operations. Along with STEIN, 54 3 f 'Y she conducted exercises with foreign navies and stood ready to conduct Maritime lnterdic- tion Operations in support of the United Nations trade embargo against lraq. USS HAROLD E. HOLT, also a KNOX class frigate, operated with the multinational minesweeping force, which had been assem- bled to clear the many mines laid by Iraq, and make the waters in the Northern Gulf safe for shipping. USS CAMDEN, the Battle Group supply ship, provided logistic support throughout the deployment - everything from jet fuel to ice cream, mail to fresh fruit and vegetables. She stood by with reloads of ammunition in case of renewed hostilities. Her heavy lift H-46 helos provided logistic runs daily throughout the deployment. On 1 March 1991, Battle Group Bravo Steamed west, uncertain about events in the Gulf or the schedule for the deployment, 11 Rear Admllil i rwcnuozsdllil llfvh lt.iiulil lf. llnlt tl"l" lll74l wus l H 557, Hag ship Im .lHJC'l?'d to ilu' rnulti imlimial minc- Hlmnl fcv .i De5m,yC,A swt-vpii1g mice in the North Arabian mmwder, Cruiser cami. 3 up THREE- Himitz, Camden, and Chancel- lorsville conducting undemfay replenishment.

Because hostilities could have resumed at any time, this naval presence had to be maintained at a high state of readiness. Also, because the units were from many different nations, US Navy ships needed to know how to coordinate and operate effectively with them. Because the Ciulf war proved the vital importance of the region to other nations, many future operations in the Arabian Gulf are likely to be Multi-national efforts. Thus, STEIN, through operations with allied warships, was a vital tool for forging a new method of operations for the Gulf. STEIN participated in Multinational Force QMNFJ Ops throughout our stay in the Gulf. Our first exposure to working with foreign navies was a joint exercise coordinated by STEIN between the Royal Navy and the Argentinians. It marked the first major interaction between ships from these two countries since the Falkland Island War. Separate and joint exercis- es with the French, Italian, Spanish, and Dutch Navies followed - just to name few. Our MNF OPS trademark was the delivery of a STEIN ball-cap, a ship's plaque and a bottle of California wine to the Commanding Officer of the allied ship.

The idea behind a COMREL Project is simple: help out a charity or other group in a foreign port by lending time, mus- cle, and knowhow. The ben- ehts of these projects are far reaching. Plot only do the folks involved in the project get a good feeling for helping out, the charity gets people to help out with tasks which otherwise would not get done. ln addition, a COMREL project fosters good relations with the host country. This is useful to offset the negative stereotypes of American sailors which are prevalent in some countries. A few good deeds can go a long way to changing this often unfair perception. Here are some Commu- nity relations projects under taken by STEIN crew mem- bers throughout the deploy- ment. ln Penang, Malaysia, about ten of the crew repaired toys and did light maintenance at the Sepa- stik Children's Center. In Hong Kong, crew members cleaned up debris at a school. Projects were also held in the Philippines and Thailand.

Located on the Westem outlet of the Straits of Malacca, Penang was vir- tually unknoum to even the most seasoned Westpac veteran prior to our visit in early April. Fondly de- scribed as the "Pearl of the Orient," the city had a dis- tinct British Colonial charm. Hotels in Penang were plen- tiful and relatively inexpen- sive. Much of the crew took advantage of the maximum liberty policy and got away from it all at one of Penang's tropical resorts. Watersports, sightseeing, shopping, or lounging at a pool side bar were the most popular pursuits by day, while much of the crew gathered for "Stein Night" at the Fun Pub after dark. While two-thirds of the 66 Penang, Malaysia crew relaxed ashore, the duty sections hosted an open ship visit for lowl rcs- idents and tourists. llun- dreds of people visited thc ship over several days. With sights like the Reclining Buddha and Kom- tar Tower, hotels like the Park Royal and Continental, and hot spots like the Fun Pub and Hong Kong liar, Penang, Malaysia was defi- nitely the biggest surprise of Westpac '91 . xl.

K he final port in the Ciulf region was the ancient city of Muscat, Oman. Carved out of the craggy cliffs of the Eastern Arabian Pennin- sula, Muscat was a heavily fortified haven for pirates and spice traders from the middle ages until early modern times. The ruins of citadels and huge turretsjutt from the rock right up to the water's edge. It was in Muscat that we celebrated the Forth of July with a barbecue spon- sored by the American Embassy. Muscat has a definite British influence. The westem hotels, including the Al Bustan Palace and the InterContinental Hotel are among the best in the Arab region. The bars in the hotels were typical English pubs, filled with ex-patriots and sewing Fosters and Carlsburg on tap. There was quite a lot to see in Muscat. The ruined castles and turrets, as well as the Sultan's palace were good places to visit. Because it was a liberty port, some of the crew got hotel rooms and spent the time in the refrigerated swimming pools of the hotels. For sheer opulence, the Al Bustan Palace, voted one of the top ten hotels in the world, was the place to stay.

The l The last foreign port of West- pac 1991 was Hong Kong. The ship was able to moor with two other Knox class frigates at Her Majesty's Station Tamar, just a short walk away from Central Hong Kong, Fenwick Pier, and the Star Ferry to Kowloon. Hong Kong is probably the most "Western" city in Asia, how- ever, it still retains a distinctive Chinese atmosphere. Hong Kong is definitely the shopping capital of the East. Everything from clothes to jewelry to electronics is manufactured in Hong Kong and sold there at incredible sav- ings. Many crewmembers had clothes tailor made in Kowloon lSam's1l, shopped at the China Fleet Club in Wang Chai, or visited Stanley Market. The Bull and Bear, Mad Dog's lhome of the now infamous Guiness "taste test"J, and the Kangaroo Pub lwhere the CO bought Aussie hats for virtually half the crewl were top notch pubs.

COMDESRON 21, Commodore Loeffier, and his staff embarked for the transit to Hawaii. Much of the time was spent in rough seas steaming at full speed to avoid three different tropical storms. When not avoiding storms, the ships competed in "Rampant Lion". A close quarters water fight between ships, cheeseburger cook-off and SWO Jeopardy were some of the main events.

WW iger Crui e little known feature of a long deploy- ment is the invita- tion to the fathers, sons, and male friends of the crewmembers tojoin us for the last week of the return transit. These "tigers" fly to Hawaii and ride the ship into San Diego. This year, most of the tigers flew in together on a package deal. About forty tigers embarked for the return trip after two days of sightseeing in Hawaii. Because we wanted to make the tigers feel at home, movies were run on the Site-TV system most of the day, meal hours were extended, and there was a more casual outlook throughout the week. The highlight of the week was the gunnery demon- stration. The crew showed their prowess on virtually every weapon in STEIN's arsenal. Fifty caliber machine guns, lVl60's, the 25lVllVl chain gun, and the 5 inch!54 caliber mount were all fired. Some tigers, most notably Denis Loncto and Buddy Davis, stood watch with their sons - even the dreaded midwatch. All in all, having the tigers on board was a welcome diver- sion from normal routine.

The pro- cess starts with the collec- tion and organization of pho- tographs. The rough layout forms are prepared and the bugs are worked out before the final layout forms are pre- pared. From the date of ship- ment of all the final materials, the book takes twelve weeks to manufacture and ship. Welfare and Recreation was extremely helpful in voting funds for the book and they purchased one book for each Ensign Joe Stengel crewmember.
