, 'THE 4 HISTORY GF THE USS. HAYNSVVQBTH' CDD-7003 The U.s.s. HAYNSWORTH 51319-700 is a modern 2200-ton destroyer equipped to locate and destroy submarines, aircraft and surface vessels. The HAYNSWORTH was named for Commander William McCall Haynsworth, U.S. Navy, who went down with ship, the U.S.S. INGRAHAM, when she was struck while on convoy duty in the North Atlantic on 22 August, 1942. V This ship was built by the Federal Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company, Kearny, NQJ. and commissioned June 22, 19411. During January, February, and March 1945, the U.S.S. HAYNSWORTH escorted fast- carriers for strikes on Lueon, Formosa, Okinawa, China Coast, French Indo China, and finally Kyushu, Japan. During this time the ship destroyed three enemy picket vessels and captured 12 prisoners, conducted shore bombardment, destroyed an enemy plane and assisted in the destruction of other aircraft. She also rescued our downed aviators and sank floating mines. . On April 6, 1945, while on radar picket duty, the ship was hit by an enemy suicide plane which destroyed a 40mm gun mount and killed 12 men. The ship remained in action, and the next day rescued eight men blown into the water when the .carrier U.S.S.. HANCOCK was hit. . The HAYNSWORTH was decommissioned 17 May, 1950, for reasons of economy. Along came the Korean War, and on August 3, reactivation commenced. Part of the crew slowly assembled from various ships. Others came from their homes, as over one half of the crew had just been ordered to 'active duty. On 22 September, the ship was recommissioned, and she -limped to Norfolk where the tender and the ship yard assisted the crew in getting the wires untangled and the machinery working. A three week shakedown at Guantanamo, Cuba was followed by a three month overhaul at Charleston, S. C. During seven weeks refresher training at Guantanamo Bay, the hard work by all hands began to get results, and in May the ship was ready for any assignment. During the summer of 1951, gunnery, antisubmarine and similiar training was held in the Virginia Capes Area. Finally, in August, Rear Admiral Solomon held a departure inspection and this story begins.
