Harry Pat Kober Jr., Captain USN Commanding Officer, USS CORONADO (AGF 11) CAPTAIN ' S CALL History will record the Hostage Crisis, the revolution in Iran, the Iran Iraq war, but few will record or remember the names of the many dedicated and professional Navy men who served in the Persian Gulf during this crucial period. This book is dedicated to those men who endured the hardships of long separations from their families, extended arduous periods at sea, and limited liberty ports in order to ensure the freedom of the seas and the access to the life blood of the industrial nations - oil. Your dedication to this mission and your professional performance in meeting each and every committment as- signed to USS CORONADO has been most inspiring and gratifying to me. You, the sometimes criticized younger generation have proven yourselves to be equal to any past generation in ability, desire, and accomplishment. Rernember this experience, be proud of your contribution to the security of your nation and the freedom of the seas.
