NGICR- PTUTAI lost part of her old World War ll and s, but gaincfl si numbfi-r of new ones plus new electronic equipment that made her a more modern warship. The modification included Anti-submarine Rocket, helicopter facilities, and new radar and sonar. ln May 1962, AGERHOLM became the first ship to fire an anti-submarine rocket equipped with a nuclear war-head. Another first for AGERHOLM was on 8 May 1968 when she became the first ship to fire a Rocket Assisted Projectile QRAPj from her Five-inch guns. Since her commissioning in 1946, AGICRHOLM has made sixteen cruises to the Western Pacific, Since the beginning of hostilities in Vietnam, she has patrolled the Vietnam coast, provided gunfire sup- port, provided search and rescue services for downed pilots, and protected our air- craft carriers against possible enemy attack. ,Xt the end of this deployment AGER- HOIAI was voted the outstanding CruDes- Pac gunline destroyer off Vietnam during the period 1 July19695 to 30 June 1969. The honor came as a result of the Top Gun .Xward competition held by the First Anglico gunfire spotters who control all naval gun- fire support off 'Vietnam... Your rapid re- sponse, cooperativeness, accuracy and re- liability were key factors in selecting you for this honor. Your accurate and timely fires employed in support of ground forces have proved to be an effective weapon against hostile forces in RVN. Model of AGERHOLM located at the United States Naval Academy.
