CAMDEN INSIGNIA The insignia of USS CAMDEN (AOE 2) is derived from the city seal of Camden, New Jersey, the city where the ship was built and for which she is named. The Coat of Arms in the center is a facsimile of the shield of the city seal of Camden, New Jersey. The right half contains a sailing ship, representing the city as a port of entry, and its shipbuilding industries. The left half is a replica from the Coat of Arms of Lord Camden, after whom the city was named. Flexibility, Readiness, Endurance : CAMDEN ' s motto embodies the three characteristics the ship and her crew must possess to meet the logistical support challenge the ship is designed to fulfill. The crossed sword and anchor in the background represent her crew, both officers and enlisted. The line border circumscribing CAMDEN ' s emblem emphasized the unity of the fleet. CAMDEN is designed to furnish rapid simultaneous replenishment of petroleum, ammunition, and stores to the fleet. As one of the fastest underway replenishment ships ever built, she is able to operate with today ' s carriers and battle group escorts whenever and wherever needed. The capability to keep pace with carriers, in addition to replenishments, is a distinct step forward in fleet support. CAMDEN and her three sister AOE ' s substantially increase the strength and endurance of the fleet. Although this fine ship has four propulsion boilers which furnish steam to turbines originally intended for the Battleship Kentucky, it is the highly trained officers and men who make CAMDEN ' s mission successful. These professionals must know how to operate, maintain and repair everything onboard. They are required to perform their assigned duties, day or night, good weather or bad, and around the clock if necessary in order to fuel, feed, supply, rearm, and deliver the mail to the fleet. CAMDEN proudly serves under the motto: Flexibility-Readiness-Endurance
