H DEDICA TION Destroyermen learn to expect the unexpected in Peacetirne and in time of war. Routine operations might beinterrupted at anytime, to rush to anarea ofa natural disaster to assist with food and medical aid. Another moment, the ship may be called on to dispatch iinznediatebi to a remote troubled area to support American policies overseas. Frigates, like Destroyers and all !Vavy ships, are made up of many teams, teams operating in a joint efort to maintain theship in peak readiness. These 'Teams' are the various divisions, each with z'ts own special responsibilities. Todays Navy requires that every man be a specialist in one of many vocations, such as,' Electronics, Miss1'les, Nuclearpower, or Sonar. In additz'on, he must be an intelligent military man an an able sailor. In a well integrated hghting team ofafrzgate, every man has a vital job and must know it well for any mistake or miscalculatz'on may prove deadhi to a shzpmate. At the sound of General Quarters, indicating the presense ofan enemy, thepeacetime routinesuddenhi changes as every man rushes to an assigned battle station. Yeomen and Personnelmen leave thez'r zypewriters to become Bridge phone talkers, Storekeepers and barbers plot bearings in Combat Control' Cooks and Messmen handle ammunition. Repair and first aid parties muster and are comprised of many divisions. Lzfz aboard a Frigate is rigorous for all but all take pride in the fact that their dugi is hard duty They revel in the knowledge that 'Big-shipmenuwouldhave dzjfculiy filling their shoes. Frigate men live by the rule ofsehfreliance, not by being afraid oflong hours, hard work, rough living, and tough assignments. Thus is the way of life for the men onboard a Frzgate. The USS WAINWRIGHT KDLC-28j is such a ship, and i't is to the men ofthe Wainwright this book is dedicated. 3
