Each day, the crew of a mod- ern warship is laced with an unparalleled challenge: to function effectively as the ul- timate team. This group of diverse men must not only maintain and Ik prepared to fight a highly complex warship, but must also provide tor e - ery human need that each mav ha t Achieving such specialized self-sutli- ciency demands superior professional performance, mature flexibility and discipline. On any given day, a young seaman may swab a deck, and later act as helmsman steering 4000 tons of frig- ate through the ocean. . n engineer- ing petty officer may train to combat potential fires, and later oversee the operation of two 25,000 horsepower gas turbine engines. A technician may conduct maintenance on a state-of- the-art computer, and later operate the ship ' s fire control system to en- gage a hostile aircraft. This book is dedicated to the spe- cial group of these highly skilled young professionals who manned HA WES between December 5, 1988 and June 5, 1989. Through an ardu- ous .Middle East deployment these proud, resourceful officers, petty offi- cers, seamen, firemen and airmen consistently excelled. Through them, HAWES, has done her part to main- tain . merica ' s status as the only true symbol of power and freedom. To the men who made it happen . . . some memories. 1 1 DKDICA I I() L 1 . -; ' «di %A CO. COMMANDING OFFICER COMMANDER JAMES W. SPEER, UNITED STATES NAVY Commander James V. Speer.

Richard Ellington Hawes Richard EllingttJii Hawes was born in Thomson, Georgia, on February 12, 1894. He at- tended the University of Georgia on a baseball scholarship before transferring to Mercer University. There he won recognition in both base- ball and football. He earned a law de- gree along the way, but passed up the bar exam to coach and play professional baseball. When America entered World War I in 1917, Hawes enlisted in the Navy as a Fireman Second Class. Fifteen months later he accepted a temporary appoint- ment as an Ensign, but reverted to Boat- swain (Warrant Officer) in 1920. In March 1926 Hawes joined USS FAL- CON (ASR-2) as Executive Officer. While aboard FALCON he jilayed a key role in the salvage of USS S-51 off Block Island, Rhode Island in September, 1925. For his part in that difficult and dangerous operation Boatswain Hawes received his first Navy Cross. On Febru- ary 18, 1929, Hawes was commissioned an Ensign by a special act of Congress in recognition of his service in salvaging the S-51 and S-4. In January 1940 Lieutenant Hawes assumed (ommand of USS PIGEON (ASR-6) and was serving in that role when the United States entered World War II. On December 10, 1941 the PI- 10 GEON was docked at the Cav- ite N ' a y Yard on Manila Bay for repairs to her steering gi-ar when Japanese war- planes attacked. Since Pearl I larbor three days before, Hawes had main steam pres- sure up and the full crew aboard, ready to get under- way at an instant. Lashed to the minesweeper, QUAIL (AM-15), which pro ided steering for both, PIGEON cleared the docks and headed for the relative safety of the bay to dodge the enemy bombs. By this time Cavite had become a hellish inferno. Afer separating from QUAIL Hawes could see that the sub- marine SEADRAGON (SS- 194) was about to be engulfed in bombs and fire in her berth. Through heavy bombing and strafing, Lieutenant Hawes maneuvered the 187 foot PI- GEON back to the fiaming dock to haul the helpless sub- marine stern first from her berth. But PIGEON ' S crew managed to rig a line on the SEADRAGON and tow her to safety. For his action, Hawes received his second Navy Cross and PIGEON was awarded the Presidential Unit Citation, the first warship to receive the award in World War II. SEADRAGON went on to distinguished service, earning eleven battle stars be- fore the war ended. Except for the brief |)e- riods when he was in transit or jnitting USS CHANTI- CLEER (ASR-1) and USS ANTHEDON (AS-24) into (omnnssion, Ilawcs spent ii- iiially all of World War II at sea in the Pacific in command c:)f his three ships. Like Hawes himself, his ships always had a reputation for efficiency and readiness. When he put CHANTICLEER into com- mission, he had depth charged racks installed so he could prosecute Japanese sub- marines. When he put AN- THEDON into commission, 92 of his crew were induc- tees and had never been to sea, but he sailed directly from commissioning to the Pacific war and within two hours of his arrival was servicing sub- marines. He received the Bronze Star for undaunted courage and professional skill for his coinmand of that ship. As he left the Western Pacific theater in Januarv 1945, the Commander, Sub- marines, Philippine Sea Fron- tier sent a message of thanks and good wishes, describing Commander Hawes and his men as ever ready, ever fear- less. Hawes was promoted to Captain on March 25, 1945. On December I, 1952 he was transferred to the retired list and promoted to Rear Admi- ral. He died at his hcjme in Thomson, Georgia, on De- cember 30, 1968; CRISI Syniholisin SI 1 1 KLD: Ihc- thr run cxlriidinK inlti thict rr- i (M ' Mis thf pr Kf« III submannr rescue, ihc ii.icisilion Irom sea to .iir lurlhrr tum{rMrtl in the (ht-vron wav Ik-Ioh and slraiKhl above I In vhuld. divided vrriiiulK. alludes In the Allaniic and l ' a iIk iKeaiiv where Rear Admiral llaHe% dislin- tll hed hiiiivell, and is Kilnred gold and blue in (he a lra liliiin.

OPERATIONS opi R A rioxs OPERATIONS ON Na igation Division (ON), consist- iiig of the Quartermasters and the Signalmen, is tasked with the responsibihty of safely navigat- ing HAWES as uell as the reliable execu- tion of visual communications. Quarter- masters (QM) provide the necessary exper- tise during all bridge uatches to continu- ously verify the location of the ship using both visual and electronic navigation. Dur- ing numerous special sea and anchor de- tails, while entering and leaving port in re- stricted waters, the QM ' spla ed a vital role in ensuring the safet of HAWES and her crew. The Signalmen (SM), on the other hand, play a key role in the smartness aiid smooth operation of HAWES during both independent and formation steaming bv maintaining isu.il i imimunK .iii ' m Mth LEF r fO RICH I: SMC(S V) Killian, QM2(SVV) Smith, SMS Coon, QM1(S V) Lafferty, QMSN Rile .

As- signed primarily as an Anti-Submarine War- fare asset, the SH-60 has proven to be an in- valuable surveillance and logistical support tool for the HAWES team. The operation- al and training mis- sions are conducted by an aircrew of two pilots and one crew- man, and are support- ed by skilled mainte- nance personnel with specific training in aircraft maintenance disciplines.

The ship made 6 port visits for a total of 6 days at Mina Suhnan Pier located on the northeastern tip of Bahrain Is- land in Manamah and 6 days at Sitrah Anchorage. Although the principle reason for port visits to Bahrain was to pick up parts and stores, there were many educational attractions down- town like The Londoner and The Sad- dle. Other points of interest include the Gold Suq, Ateem Center and, of course, ASU. No one can deny that it was HAWES ' numerous port calls to Bahrain at Sitrah Anchorage that gave a somewhat horrible meaning to the phrase WATER TAXI. ARABIAN I ' OR IS DUBAI Oil J-: .

Things that were not normally ap- preciated, like not having to remember currency conversion factors when shop- ping and the color green (in cash as well as the landscape) were no longer taken for granted.
