Boyd received his commission as Ensign, U.S. Naval Reserve on 9 June I945 after completing Midship- man School at the University of Notre Dame, South Bend, Indiana. Following graduation, he served in de- stroyer assignments until 1950, both in the Pacific and Atlantic Fleets. Next he attended the U.S. Naval Post-Graduate S choo I, Monterey, California, and grad- uated in June l953 witha Master ofScience Degree in Electronic Engineering. In I953 he placed the USS HORNET in commission as Electrical Officer, and in i955 he placed the USS BOSTON ICAG-Il, in com- mission as Fire Control Officer. In I956 he was ordered to duty in the Office, Chief of Naval Operations, Surface Warfare Division, followed by a tour as Executive Officer, USS HANSON CDDR- 875 . In l96O Commander Boyd was again ordered to new construction as Executive Officer, USS COONTZ IDLG-9l. Following his tour on COONTZ he attended the U.S. Naval War College. He was on duty in the Office of the Chief ofNavaI Operations, Development Program Division, prior to being ordered to USS WADDELL. HISTORY CDF U.S.S. WADDELL From August, T964 through June, T965, WADDELL under the command of Com- mander Carl J. Boyd, USN, underwent final acceptance trials, sea trials, ASROC qual- ification trials, TARTAR qua I ifi catio n trials, pre-shakedown availability period, and refresher training. In July, T965, WADDELL reported for duty to Com- mander, First Fleet, and became the Flag- ship for Commander, Destroyer Division T32. From mid-June, WADDELL was en- gaged in fleet exercises, upkeep periods, and pre-deployment preparations until 28 September T965 when WADDELL deployed to the Western Pacific area. On T7August, WADDELL was responsible for rescuing Cdr. Charles H. Peters, USN, pilot of a jet aircraft which crashed off the Southern California coast. Prior to theWADDELL's arrival in the Philippines in the early part of November, she was instrumental in saving the life of a Japanese merchant ship crew member who had been seriously burned in an explosion on board theT O K E I MARU. For its performance of all missions during its recent deployment to the Western Pacific, 28 September T965 through6April T966, WADDE LL was commended by Com- mander, Destroyer Division T32 in a letter of 29 June T966 which stated that the USS WADDELL KDDG-24? demonstrated the ability to perform all assigned missions in a highly efficient and competent manner. Her duties included advance anti-air picket, SARfAAW and shore bombardment. While on advance picket, personnel in the ship were quick to learn the new role assigned them. On search and rescue missions in the Tonkin Gulf, she was well known and respected by pilots of our own carriers and the U.S. Air Force who knew they could depend on her to assist them in car- rying out their assigned mission. WADDELL's performance received praise from all echelons of the Navy, Army and Air Force. On one occasion, while attempt- ing to rescue a Navy pilot believed down off the coast of North Vietnam, WADDELL received heavy shore battery fire. In re- turning this fire, WADDELL was bqfh fhe first ship to fire on North Vietnam and the , T., . I first Navy ship to receive shore battery fire since the Korean War. WADDELL was underway T02 days, steamed over 32,000 miles burning about 2,000,000 gallons of fuel oil. WADDELL returned from its deploymentto the Western Pacific on 7 April T966, to commence a three month yard availability for repairs. WADDELL completed its yard availability and commenced operating under Com- mander, First Fleet, participating in var- ious up keep periods, fleet exercises, and independent exercises, some ofwhich were BASELINE Il IOCT 66l, COMTUEX INOV 66l, and HOLDEX 66 INOV 665. WADDELL successfully completed her Operational Readiness Inspection and Pre-deployment Inspection during the month of November T966. On T2 October T966, WADDELL was awarded the Destroyer Squadron Thirteen Battle Efficiency E , in addition to the overall award, departmental honors for ex- cellence in Operations, Engineering, and Anti-Submarine Wa rfa re were awarded. These awards are made on the basis of day-to-day operations, exercises, trials, and inspections. On November 26 - 27, WADDELL held open house to some T200 visitors. A dependents cruise was held on T December T966 with over T50 dependents and guests viewing the operational requirements that a DDG must meet as an active part of today's modern fleet. On 27 December T966, WADDELL deployed to the Western Pacific, as an active unitof the U.S. Seventh Fleet. While on station, WADDELL steamed with Yankee Team aircraft carriers USS KITTY HAWK CCVA-635 and USS BON HOMME RICHARD ICVA-3Tl. Most of her deployment was acting as Naval Gun Fire Support ship in support of U.S. ground operations in the I Corp area north of Danang and near the Demilitarized Zone. WADDELL also served on Operation Sea Dragon, patrolling coastal waters off North Vietman. After a most successful deploy- ment, WADDELL returned to Long Beach in late May, T967. , ...seg U S S WADDELL is the first ship of the Navy to bear the name of James lredell Waddell Lieutenant, USN and CSN James Iredell Waddell born ln Pittsboro North Carolina on I3 July I824, was appointed mldshlpman on IO September I84I and as signed duty on Ship of the llnePENN SYLVANIA He took part in the blockade of Vera Cruz on board U S Brig SOMERS during the Mexican War followed by sea service on board PREBLE GERMAN TOWN RELEASE ALLEGHANY SAGINAW JOHN ADAMS and duty as an Instructor in navigation at the United States Naval Academy Waddell resigned I8 January I862 after the outbreak of the Civil War.

On I9 October W4 I864, he took command of the new India man, SEA KING, and transformed her to CSS SHENANDOAH. Purposing to destroy the untouched New England whaling fleet, he cruised In Pacific waters, sailing to Australia, north through the Sea ofOkhotsk, and into the Bering Sea, and Arctic Ocean, capturing 38 prizes. While steaming along the West Coast of the United States, on 28 June I865 he learned of the collapse of the Confederacy After altering the physical appearance of his ship to resemble a merchantman, he sailed her to Liverpool, the only vessel to have curcumnavigated the globe under the Confederate flag. He turned SHENANDOAH over to British authorities and after am- nesty was offered in I875, became Captain for the Pacific Mail Company.

During this period, WADDELL displayed -exceptional readiness and effectiveness in all tasks assigned includ- ing naval gunfire support in South Vietnam, Yankee Team, Interdiction of North Vietnamese logistics traffic and naval gunfire against selected targets in North Vietnam. Coming under direct hostile fire on one occasion, WADDELL returned fire skillfully and aggressively so as to inflict maximum damage on the enemy while herself avoiding damage.

The ship's primary anti- aircraft battery is the TARTAR surface- to-air missile,.which incluclesza the guided-missile launching system, the missile fire control system, and the weapon's direction equipment. When a target is received on the search radar, the Weapon Direction equipment eval- uates the target and assigns it to a missile system. When the computer so- lution is ready to control the launcher, the Weapons Direction equipment re- motely connects the launcher to the com- puter.

BARN!-IART Gunnery Officer WG DIVISION The ship's secondary anti-aircraft battery and shore battery is the gun battery which in- cludes the 5 f54 projectile, the 5 f54 gun mount, and the gunfire control system. En- gagement of a target is started by the search radar feeding a display into the Weapon Direction equipment which in turn evaluates the information and points the gun director at the target. As soon as the gun computer can convert traching information into orders to control the gun, the gun is connected to the computer. At the proper range, the gun will tire a projectile at the target. The gun computer predicts where the target will be when the projectile target, rather than tire directly at the target. ll I I I GIVIGC Fi.I... FIOGEFIS 5 I GIVIGC FLC.
