USS WALLACE LUDWIG LIND DD-703 The keel of the destroyer WALLACE L, LIND was laid on 14 February 1944, by the Federal Shipping and Drydock Corporation in Kearney, New Jersey. She was launched on 14 June of the same year with Mrs. Wallace Lind, widow of the ship's namesake, serving as sponsor. Captain Wallace L. Lind, USN, was born in Brainerd, Minnesota in 1887. He was awarded the Navy Cross for Distinguished service as an executive officer aboard the USS PRESIDENT LINCOLN, and also decorated by Sweden for service to Rear Admiral Tamm during his visit to that country. Captain Lind died in 1945. 1 After her shakedown cruise in 1944, the LIND was fitted and sent into action in the Pacific. She became the temporary flagship of Task Force 38, carrying Vice Admiral McCain and TOW91:S to the ceremony of the signing of the surrender, 2 September 1945. At this date, the new ship had a total of 99,170 miles steamed, 8 pilots rescued from plane crashes, 13 mines sunk, 12 4 I B. u 113. i for i 7- 3'rx,,, I R K Sag-1. hs. ge SL- ,- 'Qqftb xv enemy planes damaged by gun fire and four shot down. From the end of the war until September 1950, the LDNID served mostly as a training ship for Naval Reserve personnel, and made a 4 1X2 months cruise to the Mediterranean with the Sixth Fleet. In September of 1951, the LIND left Norfolk to participate in the Korean War, where she remained until 17 April 1952. In 1953, the LIND made a yard period and prepared herself for a world cruise, which was later cancelled, leaving the LIND to perform in operations out of the Norfolk area. In November 1954, she began a five months yard overhaul ending in March of 1955, when at which time, she once again prepared for another Mediterranean Cruise. On 20 July 1956, the LIND once again left for the Mediterranean and Sixth Fleet, this time, an eyewitness to the Suez Crisis, and her third trip. She returned to Norfolk on 7 December 1956 where she remained until July 1, 1957, except for two short cruises to Cuba and the North Atlantic. 4294 . .1 1,f'51..p1u..:C Commander Frederick J.

U. S. S. WALLACE L. LIND lDD-703i Care of Fleet Post Omce New York, New York Families and Friends of the USS Wallace L. Lind h the Sixth We have completed another trip in the Mediterranean Sea wit Fleet. This trip has been very successful in that, not only have we received . . . b t l able training with one of the United States first line of defense teams, u va u also because we have associated with the people of other foreign countries. Our nation is a world leader. Everything that affects us is reflected throughout the world. Because of our position in the world, these visits to strange and distant ports give us opportunities to learn about the people of the world who look to us for leadership. By our brief contacts with these different people we can understand more clearly what their reactions are to the deeds of the United States. This broader understanding helps us as citizens to influence the decisions which the United States makes with respect to foreign countries. The way the personnel of the United States Navy behave for misbehavej in foreign ports influences the people of those ports in forming opinions about the United States. These opinions mixed with many other factors becomes the na- tional policy of that country towards the United States. We, of thc Lind, feel that we have left favorable impressions in the ports we have visited and we are proud of our record. We also feel that we have received training which, if the chips are down, will offer protection to you and our country against any attempts to destroy our manner of living. This book shows you the progress of the Lind during the Med Cruise of 1957, where your son, your husband or close friend has been involved in opera- ting, maintaining, cursing and loving that most versatile and proud ship of the U. S. Navy -- the destroyer. Sincerely, Frederick J. Ruder Commander, U. S. Navy Commanding Officer THE OFFICERS OPERATIONS OFFICER Lt. R. M.
