tI j Mi-i i3imt i MBD MBF aOOO Jmc 21, 2000 - Dccmhrn 19. 2000 Xr f AW S: (FFG-53) CAPTAIN ' S CALL The opportunity to serve as the 9th captain of the USS HAVVES is one of the most rewarding tours that I have had in my naval career. It is a great honor to have served with the dedicated HAWESMAN during our MED MEF Deploy- ment. From Operation Breeze in the Black Sea, to the Maritime Interception Operations in the Arabian Gulf, the HAVVES team performed flawlessly, i am confident in their exceptional abilities and I am proud of their many accom- plishments during the last six months and those of the work-up months pre- ceding the deployment. These accomplishments reached it pinnacle during Operation Determine Response. I was inspired by the courage, ability and dedication shown by our HAWESMEN in support of the USS COLE. I would like to dedicate this book to the brave men and women of the COLE, especially those seventeen shipmates that lost their lives. MAY WE NEVER FORGET CDR J.

USS HAWES is manned by a crew of 16 olfidTs, I ■) chief pctt ' officers, and 185 cniistt ' d nu ' n. HAWES ' Commanding Offirer is Commander Jeffery Scott )ones. HAWES was the 20th PERRY class frigate hull! by Bath Iron Works of Bath, Maine. USS HAWES utilizes two LM-2500 marine gas turbines for main propLilsion, and is configured with surface-to-surface (Harpoon) and Surface-to-air (SM-1) mis- siles, a 76mm gun, anti-submarine torpe- does, as well as a variety of sophisticated self-defense weapon systems, electronics, radars and communications equipment. USS HAWES is also configured to carry two SH-()()B LAMPS III (Light Airborne Multi-purpose) helicopters, which are integrated with the ship ' s combat systems suite to enhance the ship ' s anti-submarine and anti-surface warfare capabilities. The shi() is also conligured with the Naval Tactical Data System (NTDS). USS HAWES is a multi-mission platform capable ot per- forming in a variety of roles ranging from convoy escort and littoral operations to air and surface warfare. The addition of NTD, LAMPS helicopters, and the Tactical Towed Array System (TACTAS) has given USS HAWES a combat capability far beyond the class program expecta tions of the mid- 1 970 ' s, and has made the ship both an inte- gral and valued asset in virtually any war- at-sea scenario and a particularly well-suit- ed platform for littoral warfare. 7 eal The chevron extending into t hief represents the process of submarine rescue, the transition from sea to air further suggested by the chevron wavy below and straight above. The shield, divided vertically, alludes to the Atlantic and Pacific oceans Rear Admiral Hawes distinguished himself, and is colored gold and blue in the Navy tradition. At the top, two awards of the Navy Cross, received for distinguished service in the submarine salvage operations, are denoted by the silhouetted crosses. The five-pointed star at the center signifies an award of the Bronze Star Medal to Admiral Hawes when, as commander of the submarine ten- der ANTHEDON, he organized the refitting of thirty-four submarines. On the crest, the trident suggests retrieval from the sea and the special equipment and vessels used in submarine rescue. The seahorse is a traditional symbol of the Navy diving service. The color scarlet is sym- bolic of courage in the face of danger and gold signifies excellence and achievement. The complete coat of arms as emblazoned upon a white oval back- ground enclosed bv a dark blue border edged with gold rope and inscribed USS HAWES at the top and FFG-53 in base all in gold. U Rem Admjud Rlcitml E. HauJei Richard Eilinj ton Hawes was born in Thompson Georgia, on Friday 12, 1894. He attended the University of Georgia on a baseball scholarship before transferring to Mercer University. There he won recognition in both baseball and football. He earned a law degree along the way, but passed up the bar exam to coach and play pro- fessional baseball. When America entered World War I in 1 91 7, Hawes enlisted in the Navy as a Fireman Second Class. Fifteen months later he accepted a temporary appointment as an Ensign, but reverted to Boatswain (Warrant Officer) in 1920. In March 1926 Hawes joined USS FALCON (ARS-2) as Executive Officer. While aboard FALCON he played a key role in the salvage of USS S-51 off Block Island, Rl in September 1925. For his part in that difficult and dangerous operation Boatswain Hawes received his first Navy Cross. He also assisted in the salvaging of USS S-4, which sank off Provincetown, MA, in December 1927. On February 18, 1929, Hawes was commissioned An Ensign by a special act of Congress in recognition of his services in salvaging the S-51 and S-4. In janLiary 1940 Lieutenant Hawes assumed com- mand of USS PIGEON (ARS-6) and was serving in that role when entered World War II. On December 10, 1941 the PIGEON was docked at the Cavite Navy Yard on Manila Bay for repairs to her steering gear when Japanese warpianes attacked. Since Pearl Harbor three days before, Hawes had Main stream pressure up and the full crew aboard, ready to get underway at an instant. Lashed to the minesweeper QUAIL (AM-15), which provided 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. After separating from QUAIL Hawes could see that the sub- marine SEADRAGON (SS-194) was about to be engulfed by bombs and fire in her berth. Through heavy bombing and strafing. Lieu- tenant Hawes maneuvered the 187 foot PIGEON back to the flaming dock to haul the helpless submarine stern first from her berth. Another submarine and a minesweeper had just been sunk there by direct hits. The heat and flames were so intense that they blis- tered the shi|) ' s paint, singed off his body hair, and melted the brim of Hawes ' cap. But PIGEON ' s crew managed to rig a line on the SEADRAGON and tow her to safety. For this heroic 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 ser- vice, earning eleven battle stars before the war ended. G; ioi C. W Immediately after the attack Hawes found and mounted on his ship two 3 inch guns and twelve .50 caliber machine guns from the wrecked Navy Yard. By December the new gunboat had received her second Presidential Unit Citation for shooting down sever- al enemy planes and bombarding troops. She was the only surface warship to win two Presidential Unit Citations in World War II. Except for the brief periods when he was in transit or putting USS CHANTICLER (ARS-1) and USS ANTHEDON (AS-24) into com- mission, Hawes spent virtually all of World War II at sea in the Pacific in command of his three ships. Like Hawes himself, his ships always had a reputation for efficiency and readiness. When he put CHANTICLER into commission, he had depth charge racks instail ' -(l so he could persecute Japanese submarines. When he put ANTHEDON into commission, 927(1 of his crew were inductees and had riovpr been to sea, but he sailed directly from commissioning to the Pacific war and within two hours of his arrival was ser- vicing subn.irines. He received the Bronze Star for undaunted courage and and professional skill for his command of that shi|). As he left the Western Pacific theater in January 1945, the Commander, Submarines, Philippine Sea Frontier sent ANTHEDON a message of thanks and good wishes, describing Commander Hawes and his men as Every Ready, Ever Fearless. Hawes was promoted to vJaptain on March 25, 1945. On December 1 , 1952 he was transferred to the retired list and promoted to Rear Admiral. Rear Admiral Hawes died at his home in Thompson, Georgia, on December 30, 1968.

And although it ' s the Aircrew that receive all the glory, it ' s the maintainers who keep us flying and the Flight Deck Crew who get us safely on deck that truly deserve all the credit.

Many ancient Greek myths tell about the fantastic beauty and wealth ot ' the Phasis valley, the place where ancient Creek Argonauts took the Golden Fleece and carried it away to their homeland. Poti emerged as a fortress in 1575 and in 1858 the modern Poti was given the sta- tus of a sea port. Trade from Asia, India, and Persia is maintained via the old silk routes and inland watorwa s, and the Caspian Sea. :5 UMA WL, CYPRUS 7b Cyprus is the third largest island in the Mediterranean. The Greek goddess I Aphrodite has been synonymous with Cyprus throughout his tory. The ancient poet wrote that she emerged out of the s foam off the coast of Paphos, and since has been referred to as the guardian goddess of Cyprus. Limassol, proud of its warm hos- [vitality , archaeological sites, and medieval c astles, is the premier tourist center. Hotels, restaurants, and night- spots abound along its extensive stretch of beautiful beach.
