De Grasse's tactical success at the Battle of the Virginia Capes in 1781 made a major contribu- tion to the American victory in the Revolutionary War. By inheriting the name COMTE DE GRASSE, the warship received a heritage of pride and cour- age. COMTE DE GRASSE is the twelfth of the United States Navy's first rate Spruance-class destroyers. The ship is propelled by four gas turbine engines, similar in design to those on DC-10 aircraft. These marine configured turbines can drive the 7800-ton ship to speeds in excess of 30 knots. A highly versa- tile multi-mission destroyer, COMTE DE GRASSE can operate independently or in company with De- stroyer, Amphibious, or Carrier Task Forces. The primary mission of COMTE DE GRASSE is to operate offensively in an anti-submarine warfare role. Equipped with some of the most sophisticated sonar devices yet developed, the ship can process target information quickly and with precision. Inte- gration of the ship's digital gunfire control system into the Naval Tactical Data System CNTDSJ pro- vides fast reaction to perform shore bombardment, anti-aircraft warfare, and surface warfare actions. The Standing Naval Force Atlantic cruise, COMTE DE GRASSE's third major deployment, offered the ship and crew new horizons and challenges as flag- ship of the NATO squadron. During the six-month cruise, they proved the ship's theme over and over again, Sans Precedent.

January 8 1983 Excitement, anxiety, and sorrow filled the hearts of COUNT's crew as the 563-foot destroyer slowly pulled away from Pier 24. Already, early in the morn- ing, the sailors had kissed and said goodbye to their loved ones. Leaving homeport and venturing out to the North Atlantic was not a new experience forthe COUNT. Just weeks earlier the ship and crew spent two months on the high seas of the North Atlantic. Now, however, the COUNT was deploying on a full six-month cruise, to join STANAVFORLANT in Ply- mouth, England. One of the advantages of a NATO cruise is the frequent port visits. This was a chance of a lifetime to see Europe, to travel its Coastlines, to experience its culture, to take in its countryside, to return with memories never to be forgotten.

N L T' STANAVFORLANT The Standing Naval Force At- lantic CSTANAVFORLANTJ is a unique naval entity. It is the first permanent international squad- ron ever formed. lts roots go back to 1960, when it was proposed -that a NATO Anti-submarine War- fare Task Group be formed. By 1963 discussions had progressed and a suggestion was put forward undergo a joint training program and demonstrate NATO solidarity abroad. In mid-December 1967 the STANAVFORLANT concept as we know it today was approved by the Defense Planning Committee of the North Atlantic Council. The Supreme Allied Commander At- lantic CSACLANTQ was authorized LANT are nominated in rotation by the nations assigning ships to the Force. They are appointed for a one-year term, and sail in a flag- ship of their own country's navy. To this point Commanders came from UK, USA, Canada and the Netherlands. In 1984 the German Navy will provide a flagship and Commander. that an extended exercise be con- ducted for a small NATO task group of four to six frigates. It was proposed that this group take part in selected NATO exercises, to activate and operate the Standing Naval Force Atlantic shortly afterward. 13 January 1968, in Portland, UK, in a short Ceremony, the Standing Naval Force came into being. Operational command of STAN- AVFORLANT is held by SACLANT. Commander in Chief Eastern At- lantic CCINCEASTLANTJ, with headquarters in Northwood, UK controls the Force when operat- ing in European waters. Usually the ships will operate some sev- enty percent of the time in the Eastern Atlantic area, therefore operational planning for the Force is under the overall direction and coordination of CINCEASTLANT. Commanders of STANAVFOR- 'Z ff A 1 C-sip-iff .-51' .5,-, riv, - e -J-gr 6 'Q ,4- I 'il Binding together this multi-na- tional force is its common pur- pose. lts mission has four basic objectives. First, the Squadron must be capable of rapid deploy- ment to a threatened area in times of crisis or tension. It repre- sents an immediately available deterent naval force, SACLANT's Immediate Reation Force. Second, STANAVFORLANT is charged with contributing to NATO maritime effectiveness. This is achieved through partici- pation in both large and smaller- scale NATO exercises. Further- more, in the course of providing continuous squadron experience and training, STANAVFORLANT serves as a development vehicle for new NATO tactics. Third, STANAVFORLANT dem- onstrates the solidarity of the alli- ance by showing the flags of the various member nations in a sin- gle multi-national force. Normally, during the course of the year, the Squadron will visit some twenty- five to thirty ports, including a de- ployment to the east coast of the United States and Canada. As the fourth objective, the Squadron could form the nucleus around which a more powerful and versatile naval force could be built. 5 ,f-4 nv fa ...lf A 7 Commanding Officer CDR Stephen H.

Dry land was a refreshing sight after the twelve-day Atlantic Ocean transit. Once moored, COMTE DE GRASSE was welcomed to STANAVFORLANT by Commodore H.M.D. Mac- Neil of the Canadian Armed Forces. In Plymouth, the COUNT's soccer and basketball teams had the opportunity to meet their NATO allies face to face and stretch out their sealegs in some athletic fun.

Late one evening, gusting winds became so fierce against the side of the ship, the steel cable mooring the ship to the pier was stretched too far and snapped. The ship then drifted away from the pier and the gangplank fell into the water. General quarters was sounded to wake the crew, and all hands available were called to restore the ship to the pier. It was not until morning, when the cold winds and rain had subsided, that the ship was returned to the normal posi- tion next to the pier. Once the shipboard excitement was over, the crew found the Scottish capi- tal of Edinburgh a little more relaxing. One of the favorite spots of the city was the Edinburgh Castle. Dating back nearly 800 years, the castle had its own unique history. No visit to Scotland would be com- plete without Scottish bagpipers. The visiting kiltladen masters of the piped windbags gave the COUNT a special treat as they entertained the crew with the traditional music that Scotland made famous. Bagpipers Ctop of pagej gave COUNT crewmen a taste of Scottish culture. Far left, the memorial to native-born Sir Walter Scott stands at the city's center.

The ship provided tours to Brugge and Ghent, Belgium. The tour to Ghent was especially interesting. The city featured a twelfth century castle belong- ing to the Counts of Flanders, a medieval church filled with ancient paintings and statues, and enchanting riverside archi- tecture reminiscent of Venice, Italy. The COUNT's basketball team had a su- preme challenge while in Belgium, they took on a professional team from Oos- tende called SunAir. The COUNT put in a good showing, but was a bit outclassed by the giants of Belgium. ! ,i X Clockwise from far left: Riverside in Ghent: a couple of COUNT sailors investigate the castleg the COUNT flying her flags in Zeebruggef the Counts of Flanders castle, STANA VFORLANT sailors tour Ghent: COUNT's basketball team battling against the tough Begian professionals SN Ozoa, SN Wilson, and SN Peterson browse through Ghent. 3:1 we--ww.: -- 1 -- West Germany Hamburg The five days spent in Hamburg proved to be one of the highlights of the entire cruise. Memories of the port city will not be soon forgotten neither will the sting to the pocket book. To many COUNT sailors the Reeperbahn was Ham- burg. The bright pulsating neons the revealing bill- boards and the German beer drew hundreds of STAN- AVFORLANT crewmen to West Germany s self-pro- claimed world s wickedest mile. While the sailors took to the streets to explore thou- sands of Hamburg residents flocked to the ships. Dem- onstrations of weaponery tours through ships and mingling with foreign sailors greeted the appreciative crowds. The date for departure was all too soon.

While in Hamburg, COUNT crewmen had the unique opportuni- ty to tour this walled city. Though Berlin is bisected by a twelve-foot concrete wall, it still thrives as the largest industrial city between Paris and Moscow. Also, the city is a center of culture, having more theaters, music houses, and galaries per inhabitant than any other metropolis of the world. One of the main attractions was the changing of the guards at the Russian War Memorial. As the tour buses circled to catch the precise moment of the guard change, cameras stood poised, ready to capture their Russian military counterparts strutting across the pavement. Needless to say, the Russians satisfied their captive audience. Clockwise from top left: COUNT sailors observe the Berlin Wall, M52 LeBeau chats with tour guide, the Charlotten Castle: the Airlift Memorial is a reminder of the 74 pilots who gave their lives supphring goods to Berlin during Stalin 's eleven- month blockade, Russians march in front of their memorial, the Russian War memorial in West Berlin. wx 5 ,Q if vi, X Z W M- or If g f 'ms e x i A 4 . , . , Q 4 C 1 tg 'X X I, v is 4 3 lil Il .

The Ferrol Naval Base is the oldest 4 L....2- 3 A 1 O tm f ,,...,---- Spanish naval facility in Spain. In 1776, it was said the base was the best naval installation in the world. Today, the Ferrol base is primarily a training facility for Spanish sea ca- dets, and a shipbuilding base. While in Spain, many COUNT sail- ors enjoyed a tour to Santiago de Compostela. In the city's center, sprawled over several acres, is the famous Cathedral of Santiago. It was built in the 12th century and has been called Romanic Art's most important creation. The city also possesses maze-like streets, lined with tall buildings which give the sense of walking through huge stone crevasses.

For three weeks the Force stayed in the largest city in Portugal and had many opportunities to see the Por- tugese country side. Tours were of- fered to Fatima and Nazare, and the city of Lisbon. Some crewmen had the chance to see a genuine Portu- gese bullfight. The main event at the Lisbon port visit was the change of command ceremony Csee pages 81-849. The ceremony had an United States Navy officer taking command of Standing Naval Force Atlantic. That of course meant COMTE DE GRASSE was the new squadron flagship.

The wind was still, the water glass, as the nine warships entered the enchanting scenery of Norway. Up the road from Haakonsvern was Bergen, Norway. Bergen is the second largest city in the country.

As the STANAVFORLANT squadron pulled into the Norwe- gian metropolis, the waterside was lined with people, including a Norwegian ,marching band, wel- coming the Force into the city. In town, COUNT sailors found numerous Viking museums. At the Viking Ship Museum there was an intriguing display of arti- facts including two 1000 year old Viking ships. Also of interest was the Kon-Tiki and Ra ll museums, which housed the two famous floating crafts. ln West Oslo, sailors saw the sculptor Gustav Vigeland's gigan- tic 75-acre display. The sculp- tures, in OsIo's Frogner Park, in- clude a world of people and ani- mals carved in granite, iron, and bronze. There was even a sculp- ture of Abraham Lincoln that was donated to Oslo by the citizens of South Dakota. The day for departing Oslo came all too soon. The Squadron must move on.

Many sailors celebrated by eagerly catching trains to the hot nightlife of Amsterdam, some relaxed and took tours to the Dutch cheese factory in Alkmaar and the Heineken brewery. While in Den Helder, STANAVFORLANT ships got together and had a huge picnic featuring food from each STANAVFORLANT country, live music, sports activities, and Heineken beer. The COUNT's track team totally overwhelmed the other nations, sweeping first place in nearly every event. Though everyone enjoyed the Netherlands, one of the most welcomed sights was the COUNT's relief, USS Dewey. Dewey's arrival meant 300 men would soon be transitting the Atlantic to be reunited with close friends and loved ones whom they had been seperated from for so long - channel fever was in the air.
