4 n-.. Brief History UNITED STATES SHIP DE HAVEN QDD-7273 was commissioned 31 March 1944, the second destroyer to bear the name of Lieutenant Commander E.J. De Haven, an early Arctic explorer. The first DE HAVEN QDD-4965 was sunk in February 1943 as a result of Japanese dive bombers in a battle near Guadalcanal. Soon after her sea trials and training the present DE HAVEN became a distinguished perform- er in war zone operations at Leyte Gulf, Luzon, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa. F She is credited with destroying several air and small surface craft and was also in Tokyo Bay with the USS MISSOURI during the signing of the surrender. y p DE HAVEN continued her active career during the Korean campaign. She evacuated American Nationals from Inchon on the second day of the war and completed four combat tours of carrier operations, amphibious sup- port, coastal blockade and naval gunfire support of troops on the front. The shiphwas awarded a Navy Unit Commendation for amphibious support operations' at Inchon. The peacetime role of destroyers was equally brought out by the DE HAVEN following the Korean conflict. Port visits promoting goodwill and People-to-People Programs, radar picket and surveillance as- signments, and training were conducted throughout the Western Pacif- ic. DE HAVEN was also awarded the Armed Forces Expeditionary Med- al for operations in the Quemoy-Matsu area, the Taiwan Straits and Vietnam. During the more recent Vietnam crisis, DE HAVEN has served in varied assignments as a naval gunfire support unit in I, II, III, IV Corps .and Rung Saat Special area of South Vietnam, as an interdiction unit on Operation Sea Dragon in North Vietnam, as a search and rescue unit on North SAR Tonkin Gulf, and as a rescue destroyer on carrier operations. Through- out these missions, DE HAVEN has fired over 25,000 rounds of naval gunfire in support of friendly troops in South Vietnam and in interdiction in North Vietnam. The ship has also participated in the rescue of downed aviators from the Tonkin Gulf off the coast of North Vietnam. A SUMNER class destroyer, DE HAVEN displaces 2670 tons, has a length of 376'6 . Modification of the ship in 1960 by the Fleet Rehabilitation and Modernization Program QFRAMD greatly increased the ship's anti-sub- marine capability. DE HAVEN carries a main battery of six 5 inch 38 caliber guns, six ASW torpedo tubes and two Drone Anti-submarine Hel- icopters QDASHD. DE HAVEN can steam 5,000 miles without refueling and with 60,000 shaft horsepower is capable of a maximum speed of 33 knots.
