S, S, BRINKLEY BASS QDD 8871 was commissioned on 1 October, 1945, at Orange, Texas. The ship was named in honor of Lieutenant Com- mander 1-larry Brinkley Bass, U. S. Navy. Lieutenant Commander Bass, a naval aviator, was twice awarded the Navy Cross for heroic action against enemy forces during early World War Il, in the South Pacific. Other deco- rations included, the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Silver Star Medal, the Air Medal, and the Purple Heart. After reporting to Commander In Chief, Pacific Fleet, the BASS departed San Diego, in February of 1946, for her first Far Eastern Cruise. The ship spent a full year, in the Far East, visiting such ports as Shanghai, Tsingtao, and I-long Kong. She returned to San Diego, in February of 1947, and began extensive training off Southern California. Between the years 1948 and 1950 the BASS made two more cruises to the Far East. After the outbreak of hostilities in Korea the BASS was ordered to report to the Far East in November of 1950, and was given duty with Task Force Seventy-Seven. The first taste of combat for the BASS came in May, when she was ordered to Wonsan Harbor for shore bombardment, where she suf- fered her first battle casualty, as a result of shrapnel from an enemy 12.0MM shell, which was fatal to one man and injured ten others, On 17 July Destroyer Division FIFTY-TWO was relieved on station and departed for San Diego. The second combat cruise for the BASS began on 26 January 1952, and after a three week assignment with Task Force 77, she again went into the action at Wonsan Korea. During her two weeks in Wonsan this time she was taken under fire on eleven separate occasions, and on one of those occasions re- ceived a direct hit amidships, which caused injury to several of the crew and minor 'damage to the ship. After working with Task Force 77, again and another trip to Wonsan, she returned to San Diego on 26 August 1952. The third combat cruise for the BRINKLEY BASS began on 18 April 1953, and is presented in pictorial form in the following pages of this book ........ 3 . . as iEE,Ei, ,,,,. g, js' A 3 -. f j-l 4v '-'V , , .A , 4' - 't- Osh F -f Q v2 4-,-.14- --'-' ' ! ! v- -Y 4' IZUMMANIIEH IIESTHUYIR ! 1 l I Captain Paul S. Savidge, Ir, , relieved Captain A. L. Gebelin as Commander Destroyer Division FIFTY- TWO on I7 September 1953, ' Captain Savidge entered the U. S. Naval Academy in 1930 from the state of Washington. Upon graduation, he served in the U.S.S. Tennessee, U.S,S. Jarvis CDD- 393 and U. S.S. Colorado, During the war he was navi- gator of the U.S. S. Massachusetts in the Pacific. He received the Bronze Star Medal with combat device dur- ing operations with the Fast Carrier Task Force. In 1946, Captain Savidge took command of U. S. S. Collett IDD-7301, and during this tour spent a year in the Far East. In 1947, he was assigned as Operations Officer on the staff of Commander Destroyer Flotilla ONE. From 1948 to I95I, he was on duty in the office of the Chief of Naval Operations in Washington, and then attended the Naval War College at Newport, R. I. His present assignment was preceeded by duty as Direc- tor of Pl n ' a ning on the staff of Commander Western Sea Frontier, With such an impressive and well-rounded back- ground, it is apparent that the ships in Destroyer Divi- sion FIFTY-TWO can look forward to serving under a very capable and experienced Division Commander, IIIVISIII HHY-TWU Captain Albert L. GEBELIN entered the U. S. Naval Academy in 1930, and graduated with the class of 1934, Upon graduation, Captain GEBELIN was assigned to the U.S. S. WEST VIRGINIA where he spent four years. In June 1938 he was ordered to report for duty on his first destroyer where he served as Communications Officer and Gunnery Officer, and five months before the attack on Pearl Harbor he was assigned to the U. S. S. MAURY qDD 4011. After campaigns in the Pacific, where the MAURY received the Presidential Unit Citation, he was transferred to the Atlantic Coast where he reported aboard the U. S. S. DOYLE QDD 4941. In December 1943, Captain GEBELIN assumed command of the U. S. S. THOMPSON CDD 6271 and during D-Day Operations he transported Admirals KIRK and KING, and Generals EISENHOWER, MARSHALL, and ARNOLD to the Nor- mandy beach-head. For his performance in that cam- paign, Captain GEBELIN was awarded the Silver Star Medal, and the Croixe de Guerre. From November 1944 to March 1949, the Commodore received a variety of ship assignments, and then in May of 1949 he reported for duty with the Bureau of Naval Personnel, at Washing- ton, D.C. In August of 1952, Captain GEBELIN assumed command of Destroyer Division FIFTY-TWO. I Leadership and responsibility are common capa- bilities in Americans, but outstanding leadership and re- sponsibility are characteristic to only a few. Captain GEBELIN is one of those few. He is truly a credit to the great Navy of a greater nation. IZAPIAI lu f vi , I. 4 1 XX 'Qu Commander Gordon Gemmill entered the U. S. Navy inJuly 1941. He had previously attended Phoenix and Arizona State Colleges. During the early part of World War II, he served aboard the U. S. S. MC FARLAND, which received the Presidential Unit Citation for out- standing performance in combat. After attending school in Key West, Florida, Commander Gemmill reported aboard the U. S. S. BERNADOU 1 DD I53Q for duty as Executive Officer, and six months later was the Commanding Officer of his own destroyer the U. S. S. UPSHUR QDD 1441. The next three years saw three more destroyers for Commander Gemmill, and then in November of 1948, he reported for duty at the United States Naval Academy, Annapolis. In 1951 he reported aboard the first big ship of his career, the U. S. S. MANCHESTER, where he served as Navigator, then in September of 1952, Commander Gemmill assumed command of the U. S. S. BRINKLEY BASS CDD 8879. It has been said that, there is no substitute for experience , and Commander Gem mi1l's complete mastery of the destroyer command is certain proof of that axiom 5 :YF 5 II II 1 It II EXEEIIIEIVE IIEEIIIEIE ,,.... .Lf-,,, Lieutenant Commander Buster E. Toon received his commission in the United States Navy on January 6, 1942. Before coming into the Navy Mr, Toon attended East Texas State and Northwest- ern University. He was the Executive Officer of the U.S. S. LST 382, and later became the Commanding Officer of that ship. He served as Gunnery Officer aboard the U.S.S. RENDOVA QCVE II4j, and then assumed duties as Officer in Charge of Fire Control School, at Washington D,C. During World War ll, Mr. Toon served in the cam- paigns of North Africa, Sicily, Italy, and Normandy. Mr. Toon assumed duties as Executive Officer of the U. S.S. BRINKLEY BASS, during her yard period of I952 at Puget Sound Naval Shipyards. His skill and strict ad- herance to drill has made the BASS one of the cleanest and well organized ships in the Navy.

WX 0 v- o X The first Division is responsible for the maintenance and operation of the Gunnery Department spaces in the forward part of the ship. The Deck Force of the First Division has the responsiblity of an- choring and mooring the ship, plus the numerous other jobs of the Boat- swain's Mates which, to describe thoroughly, would demand several pages. Perhaps the most famous or, as you wish infamous, character- istic of the Boatswain's Mate is his job of passing the word , with his musical little boatswain's pipe. The second largest group in the First Division is the Gun Gang , who as the name implies, is responsible for the main and AA batteries forward. There is more to a gun than what's on deck, as l'm sure any Gunners Mate can tell you .......... there's magazines, handling rooms and ammunition hoists. The necessity of leaving the guns exposed to weather to permit quick manning, demands constant preventive mainte- nance on the intricate movable parts of the guns. The Firecontrolmen and technicians are usually found in some di- rector or power room, with several wires or tools in each hand, for it is their job to man and maintain the complicated firecontrol system of the ship. The newest addition to the First Division is the Sonar Gang , who must keep a twenty-four hour-a-day watch for underwater attack. f 4' 5' O' ,, 7, , , ' -Ere.,-I ll 235. r i say?- -1 K-6. xNKLl-P MCE -QM 4-F -A-HM f SECO IIIIIVISIU S' gv, The Second Division has the task of keeping up the Gunnery Depart- ment spaces in the after part of the ship. Many endless hours are put into this task. The deck force also see's to it that the motor whaleboat is kept ready for instant use, regardless of the weather and sea condi- tions. The gun gang of the Second Division is responsible for the after main and AA batteries, and their handling rooms and magazines. Everyday, magazines must be examined for excessive temperatures and other dan- gerous conditionsg while the torpedo gang handles the maintenance of the torpedo tubes and the anti-submarine weapons. The effectiveness of any department on a ship is, the final analysis, largely dependent on the personnel of that department and their ability to get along with their shipmates. The cooperation between the divisions and the gangs within the divisions, has been very commendable, and has added materially to the operational effectiveness of this cruise.

It is the re- sponsibility of the men of this division to get the ship going and keep it going. The Machinist Mate' s who must stand watch at the main engine con- trol, have the tremendous responsibility of controling the speed of the ship. The seemingly endless maze of machinery in the engineroomfs must be kept under personal observation at all times and any breakdown repaired immediatley. Power is the Heart of the ship - - - and our power is STEAM, Power is needed to drive the engines, and for light, ventilation, heating, cook- ing, and refrigeration. The manufacture of steam is the responsibility of the Boilermen, and a vital responsibility it is, for in the fireroom, all functions of the ship begin. The men of the Engineering Division are a proud group of men, and they have the right, for they can boast a long and enviable record of con- tinuous steaming without material breakdown.

We have electricians to keep the generators and miles of electric wiring in safe efficient operation, and interior communication electri- cians to maintain the complex and vital internal communications. The shipfitter's gang include the metalsmiths, pipe fitters and da- mage controlman, who take care of all structural alterations and repairs of the ship. The engineman and the machinists mates in the Repair Division are responsible for the maintenance of the diesels and auxiliary machinery respectively. The obvious value and importance of the Repair Division is evident in considering the wide scope of their duties, and this division can be credited directly for the material effectiveness of this ship. 4 'W wi' C.

It is the department that know what we're doing, when, where and how. The radarmen are the external, long range eyes of the ship that must be ever alert to intercept the enemy on the sea and in the air. The ra- darmen are further responsible for the voice communications whic-h is necessary to the coordination of combined forces. The radiomen and teleman are the men responsible for the receiving and sending of all coded messages for the ship. The yeoman and person- elman must take care of all the administrative and ,clerical duties, that are characteristic of our modern Navy. Those windbeaten and sunburned men on the bridge are the quarter- masters who do all the visual communicating, besides assisting in the navigation the ship. A The efficient Well coordinated actions of the men of the Operations Department have won many compliments this cruise, but any credit given to this department must be given in a great part to one man, Lt James E. Phalan, the Operations Officer, who's outstanding and effi- cient work has warranted the resp.ect and admiration of every man in his department. V 19 - - i' !'

W 'M I, f ,Y in f' f T E y f The Supply Division is one of the most colorful divisions on the ship, for they are the men who feed us, cut our hair, wash our clothes, and give us money. The storekeepers have the big job of ordering all the supplies for the ship, which is usually in denominations of tons. The disbursing clerks, under the capable eye of the Disbursing Officer, must keep track of the many thousands of dollars it takes to pay us. ' The hospitalmen in sick bay, must put up with our routine aches and pains at sick call everday, and are alert twenty-four hours a day in case of emergency. The barber and the laundrymen are constantly employed at the endless job of cutting our hair and washing our clothes. The cooks and bakers have the very touchy job of trying to satisfy our finicky appetites, and those of us who were aboard last year must, in truth, admit that they have done a great job this cruise. if ,., ,..- ,.- .L- ,,. 1.- ,Q ...- 5: ,. 1 ,- 4 0 IUBNSAN ' 3- ..-.4964 orJ,f,F7N,-,N '-W 5 I' F S1 ' f A A olfosulfq i 'ro R GHMJQ ft ' .:: 5 fkfvm 64 YD Ohzvacuq 'ijt'-'5C'70ofPee' V ': 8 k 1 D o 0 H01 0 JgRMo5q -i-1 ,Q 1 5 Ch kAoAf5f!f2ff63Q GO JZ'foA3'Y KONG?

HAWAII ,N Even to those of us who have visited Pearl Harbor before, we feel a certain excitement and anxiety when entering that fabulous Hawaian port. The enormous Naval Station and Submarine Base with their elaborate re- creational facilities, offered the crew many channels of diversion, while the world famous Waikiki Beach offered the rest, Several days were spent by Destroyer Division FIFTY-TWO in ASW training, chasing that ever- escapable submarine.

We- made several trips to both Yokosuka and Sasebo during the cruise, and most of us came to know Japanese cities quite well. The Naval bases at both ports offered athletic facilities and other forms of recreation. Some of us even went to rest camps further inland. Upkeep periods in Japan were from ten to twelve days, which was usually sufficient time to maintain upkeep on the ship, load stores, and spend our money, r XXX ' .ssroiifx 28 H 1 il 3 N , w 4 .

For some of the crew it was no new experience to steam into the heavily armed enemy port, but for others, this was their first exposure to com- bat. As the days went slowly by, the inaction of enemy guns was welcome but every mind remained constantly alert to react to the words Counter- battery . It was a comforting sight to every man aboard to see the battle- ship New Jersey pull in with her big guns and bombard the beachg but total relief could only come when Wonsan Harbor was miles behind and our course was set again for Sasebo.

We arrived in Kaoshiung intending to spend about a week in port, but the third morning after our arrival we were steaming out of the small harbor ahead of an approaching typhoon. After three days of typhoon evasion with the rest of the ships of our division, which took us down around the Philippines, we again entered Kaoshiung. Several. days were spent in training personnel of the Chinese Nav Y, and nearly every day the Captain and the Commodore were visited by high Military and civilian officials of the Chinese Nationalist govern- ment.

We had no sooner moored the ship in the harbor when We were imme- diately surrounded by bum-boats of every size, shape and color. Before we could catch our breath, the merchants were aboard and had their wares on display and most of us cornered under a barrage of sales talk, Forty- eight hours is a comparatively short period of time, but to the merchants in Hong Kong it's enough time to break a millionaire. When we left Hong Kong we were loaded down with everything from diamond rings Kwe hopel to tailor made suits. 1 36 sm? 35 -u b -' .,,,.,,, ...Ag .,,.,.- ,. :o-,:g5,5,g-:,3'.-:f.f,L...,.... ., ... ..v C9 - K3 H X T ll E H W AY 69 D v i 1, MQW N00 ,, x Q.- W As flyw- - The Brinkley Bass has spent, as can be expected of any Naval ves- sel, most of her time at sea. There is something about steaming that is good and clean, the clear fresh air that sweeps over the long stretch of ocean, or the inspiring beauty of a sunset on the unobstructed horizon. These things help us forget the hectic times with the task force, nu- merous replenishing and fuelings at sea, long wait between mail calls, or the many division tactics enroute to our destinations. Whatever our tasks are at sea, only sailors do the justice of true appreciation to the sight of Point Loma rise invitingly from nowhere, and we know that the cruise is over. 38 aw s 1 ai I 136 1 1 f 'f 'ri f .-alfl VNS' ' .

But there's not been much, of the poetS 1S01lCh, On any the rest of the ships. t Were the flat-tops alone, when the fl1ghts were flown, And the Commies blown to bits? Now please get me straight, the bird-boys are great, I bow with the greatest esteem, But along with the bow, a salute I vow, To all the boys in the screen. They're not nearly as big, or as fancy a rig, As the rest of the carrier force. l And they don't make big news, with their non-flying crews Like a pilot of jets of course. Yet on each dawning day, in their own quiet way, They are there for the task force abuse. For whatever the task, Jehova may ask, There's a poor old destroyer to use.

The galleys' a mess down below. Affirm Victor Mike, launch an outgoing strike, Intend to pass under your stern. Darken ship, is that really a pip? Turn one - change my last to one turn. Control is now red, has the crew all been fed? There's black smoke from number 1 stack. Q111Ck, lock on that raid, but it' s now in a fade Belay that, it's now coming back. The radar is out, are you sure there's no doubt, A magnetron tube' s what we need. A man that is sick? We'll transfer him quick, Notify boss Ganymead. The signal gang's sending, these groups never ending, We're ordered to sink belly tanks. The night course changes, watch closely to ranges, Tell Viper we call Nancy Hanks. The radar guard follows, a posit for Swallow. Her station is wrong in the screen. This course is for landing, speed 5 he's demanding, Engine room stand-by for full steam. The barometer's falling: that's magnify calling. Some-body's shooting t e bull. A skunk on the scope? That's Airtight you dope, Engine room stand-by for speed full. A message to relay, the screen is amelee. Our gadget just went on the blink. There's ballast to pump, trash and garbage to dump, And mines, lots of mines we can sink. The bridge has lost steering, the weather's not clearing The menu says stew for tonight. These transfers are risky, my soul for some whiskey, Take plane guard for incoming flight. Fireball sends weather, turn nine - hell for leather, Who's guide and what should she bear? A sound contact hot, no, it's a fish that they've got. In combat they're tearing their hair. Bear a hand down on deck, for the old man' s a wreck, Two block the What the hell flag . Make that report, when' s the next time in port? Speed up, what's causing the lag? And that's only a start, on the really rough part, The DD' s must play in this force. I could tell much more, but I don't want to bore, I'd be wasting my time, too, of course. For the flat-tops a beaut, and the fly-boys are cute, And together are real Fancy Dans l . But they too, will admit, that it helps Just a bit, To have those little Tin Cans . 45 MY XXX Z MS ZWWWW' 5 JLYAN MY 7?1i'DZ-Lzzrf CEN WW I al f--4. .,,.,.

It's only history now, just some writing and a few pictures but to us, the crew of the BRINKLEY BASS, it is a lesson. . . a lesson of life and of living with our fellow men. We fought together, played together and worked together for seven long months and it's a memory we won't soon forget. As for the BASS --- we swore at her, cursed her, and called her names, but we didn't really mean a word of it. She didn't win any medals this cruise, but she did her job and she brought us home, and we're proud of her. ' This is the end of this book, but not lay far the end of the story of the BRINKLEY BASS. Where ever there is apneed for a Navy to pro- tect the democratic principles and, basic freedoms of all men, the BRINKLEY BASS can be counted on to do her job in a manner up- holding the highest traditions of the United States Navy. 49 15,-. -rm 1,,, 1511.151 1 ,.a.-.r,- av kr-1-rw-A1.1,s :air-1515114 7' fs. ar,x19M'.'r'Q 1 -1Qss31vV:v.1.5y.,ggf1w 'fygejigigigywxrjgeagiggigjfgggfgkiifgygrbr 'Q-fry:tg::.a.593gf19L1142i'?'PXQIQQDEAQM' LN' f '-- I MW- '-1 2' 7 I 'Twa- 'La- aa-.
