The I-IENRICO can carry over 100 troop officers and about 1500 troop enlisted men in addition to its peacetime allowance of 25 officers and 343 enlisted men. Additionally, the HENRICO, as falgship for Commander, Amphibious Squadron ONE, carries 25 staff officers and 34 staff enlisted men. The I-IENRICO is approximately 492 feet in length and displaces about 14,000 tons when fully loaded. She is able to make speeds in excess of 18 knots, but normally. cruises at 15 knots. Her armament, essentially defensive in nature, consists of two 5 f38 caliber guns with a maximum range capability of 18,000 yards, and four twin 40lVllVl guns with a maximum range capability of 4,500 yards. Her primary mission is . that of all APA s: to conduct a ship to shore movement against a hostile beachhead and to deliver the troops and supplies necessary to make the amphibious operation successful. The USS HENRICO QAPA-455, formerly the S. S. SEA DARTER, converted to an attack transport with flagship accommodations, was built in 1942 and 1943, and was commissioned on 24 June 1943. The ship, named for I-lenrico County, Virginia, had CDR John WILLIS as her first commanding' officer. In February 1944, the HENRICO steamed to the United Kingdom for amphibious training. While engaged in these amphibious training exercises at Portland, England, the HENRICO opened fire for the first time under actual battle conditions during a heavy air attack on the night of May 28. The following month the ship participated in the largest amphibious operation in history, the invasion of Normandy. In October, the I-IENRICO returned to the United States for overhaul and then proceeded to the Western Pacific for participation in the invasion of Okinawa. The following April, while the ship was retiring for the night, a twin-engine Francis kamikaze bomber crashed into the starboard side of the navigation bridge. Two 250 pound bombs penetrated several decks before exploding on the main deck, port side. I-IENRICO was taken in tow by two other ships and delivered to an anchorage in Kerama Retto Harbor, Okinawa. Among the fifty-one persons killed that day were the Commanding Officer, the Division Commander, and the Troop Commanding Officer. - After minor repairs the HENRICO sailed under her own power for the United States. In August. 1945, she proceeded to Leyte, where she was anchored during the first days of the armistice with Japan. Operations immediately after the war included the returning of U. S. Servicemen from overseas, the Magic Carpet Operations. Later the ship participated in Operation CROSSROADS, the first atomic bomb test at Bikini. The Korean War again found the HENRICO busy. In July 1950 she sailed from the United States- with units of the 5th Marine Regiment, which she landed at Pusan. In September she participated in the assault landing at Inchon. To landing operations at Wonsan, North Korea followed .in October. She also participated, in 1953, in Operation BIC SWITCH, the moving of Communist North Korean prisoners from Koje Do tolnchon pursuant to the armistice agreement.

That's hardly the weapon to use for duck- THE PHILIPPINES Republic of the Philippines is an independent republic embracing a.group of more than 7,000 islands in the western Pacific Ocean, situated about 700 miles east of the lndochinese peninsula. The Republic came into existence on 4.July 1946, after an agreement with the United States, requiring a ten-year transitional period as the Philippine Commonwealth, had been fulfilled. The 7,000 islands are bounded on the east and northeast by the Philippine Sea, on the west and northwest by the South China Sea, and on the south by the Celebes Sea. Only about. 2,440 of the islands have names, and only 462 have an area of one square mile or more. These islands are the higher portions of a partly submerged mountain chain and are as a result largely mountainous throughout. The mountains are part of a girdle of active volcanoes around the Pacific Ocean. Volcanic eruptions and associated earthquakes occur frequently, often with great losses of life and property. The most impressive and awesome of some twenty intermittently active volcanoes is Mount Mayon in southeastern Luzon, the largest of the islands. Mount Mayon is 7,943 feet high, is one of the world's most perfectly shaped cones, and is one of the most active volcanoes of the Republic. The Philippine Republic is one of the fastest growing nations in the world. By 1960 there was an average density in population throughout the islands of about 238 persons per square mile. A better key to the crowded conditions in the rural areas of the Republic is gained if the population densities are related to the area of cultivated land, and on this basis there are more than 2,000 people per square mile in some provinces. Overpopulation is, however, a problem of local maldistribution, and attempts are being made to persuade people to move into the less densely populated regions. The Philippines was the most frequently visited port in the HENRlCO's 1965 WestPac Cruise. The ship first spent the 1964 Christmas holiday in the port of Subic Bay, where there is located a large Naval Air Station, Cubi Point. During this first two-week stay in the Republic, the crew and officers of HENRICO were entertained by Bob Hope and his much appreciated troupe of entertainers. The I-IENR-lCO's stopover in Subic Bay was unexpectedly extended into the month of January and, during this period the crew began to ready the ship for the upcoming Special Operations off the coast of Vietnam. As it developed, the status of the war in Vietnam became steadily more uncertain, and the HENRICO found herself in and out of Subic Bay frequently during the following months of February and March. While the ship was in port, many trips were made to the capital city of Manila, and to the island of Corregidor, and to Bataan. In the meantime, the crew of HENRICO enjoyed itself on the beaches of the islands and in shopping tours in Olangapo and Manila. Many of us returned home. with the famed Barong Tagalog , Philippine evening shirt. 6 Entrance to Old Spanish Fort. After the WELCOME, Liberty Ca11Q A typical farm scene in the Philippines.

Okinawa is an island in the North Pacific Ocean, 350 miles south of Kyushu, the southern - most island of Japan. Okinawa,which is the largest of the Ryukry Islands chain, has been under United States control since the end of World War Il, formerly having been a Japanese pre- fecture. The principal harbor and port city is at Naha, with an estimated popula- tion of 220,000. The Okinawan people are close to the Japanese in racial char- acteristics and customs, yet have their own linguistic and ethnic distinctiveness. Until 1875 they paid tribute to the Emperor of China. When the island was taken over by the Japanese in l875, the inhabitants were reduced to extreme poverty. During World War II, Okinawa was attached by American forces on l April l945. A severe battle was fought which resulted in the capture of the island after 82 days of fighting, and the loss of ll,260 American killed and 33,380 men wounded. The Japanese lost over 90,000 killed and 4,000 men captured. Although heavily de- pendent on American military expenditures at the present time, the vast majority of the islanders desire reunion with Japan. Okinawa was one of the ports most frequently visited by the I-IENRICO during its l965 WestPac Cruise. A great deal of the time was spent loading troops for further transfer to Vietnam. However, the crew was able, on several occasions, to take advantage of the many native and Exchange facilities available on the small island. The HENRICO's anchorage was located in the well protected Buckner Bay, just off White Beach, scene of the American amphibious landing near the close of World War ll. From this anchorage, many small villages and towns were easily accessible to the I-IENRICO sailors, where they were able to purchase many fine examples of the Ok1n.awan's most flourishing craft - cabinet making.

The Three Muskateers Master Chef 53 HONG Hong Kong, a British Crown Colony in southeast China, consists of the island of I-long Kong, on which the capital city of Victoria is located, the Kowloon Peninsula on the mainland to the north, and the New Territories, including the mainland north from Kowloon to the Sham- chum River, which forms most of the boundary between the New Territories and China, together with the adjacent islands and bays. British pos- session of Hong Kong was confirmed by the Treaty of Nanking in l842. Kowloon was similarly. acquired in l860, and the New Territories were secured on a 99-year lease in 1898. About forty- five miles to the west on the other side of the Pearl estuary lies the Portuguese colony of Macao, and about eighty miles upstream is the Chinese city of Canton. The island of Hong Kong and most of the mainland are mountainous and unsuited to agri- culture. The city of Victoria is itself situated on the steep slopes of Victoria Peak, 1,823 feet high. But what the colony lacks in agricultural resources it makes up in shipping facilities. Hong Kong possesses perhaps the best natural harbor in the Orient. The largest ships can be accommodated at either Victoria or Kowloon. The population of I-long Kong, which was estimated to be less than 750,000 at the end of the Japanese occupation in l945, had reacheda total of 3,133,131 in 1961. An interestingfeature of I-long Kong's population is the large number of Chinese fishermen who spend their entire lives on their boats. ln January, 1965 the USS I-IENRICO stopped in Hong Kong for a six day recreation visit. During its stay, the HENRICO was moored out- board on the arm of the British Admiralty's Victoria Basin Pier, directly at the foot of Victoria Peak and within walking distance of Hong Kong's major metropolitan business dis- trict, Victoria. All points of interest were easily accessible to the crew of HENRICO by ferry to Kowloon, or by taxi or bus on the island of Hong Kong itself. Victoria Peak, from which there is a panoramic view of the entire colony, is reached by a dramatically steep and rapid tram. Repulse Bay, located on the opposite side of the island from Victoria, offered recreation to the visiting I-IENRICO sailor in the form of broad, sandy beaches and excellent swimming facilities. On the main- land, outstanding nightclub entertainment was provided within the city of Kowloon. KONG The Henrico in busy Hong Kong harbor. Victoria at night.

SPECIAL OPERATICDNS: VIETNAM A Vietnam, a country in Southeast Asia, on the eastern seaboard of the lndochinese Peninsula, is divided into two states lying north and south of the 17 parallel - the Democratic Republic of Vietnam QNorth Vietnamp and the Republic Of Vietnam QSouth Vietnamij. lt comprises the three Vietnamese regions o Tonkin in the north, Annam in the center Qdivided between North and South Vietnamj, and Cochin China in the south, which were colonized by France during the second half of the nineteenth century. After a brief period of unity which ended in 1954, a part-antico1onial,, part -civil war that had raclted the country since World War 11 led to its division into two independent republics, one Communist and the other pro-Western. The political borders of Vietnam are China in the north and Laos and Cambodia in the west. Of the two republics, North Vietnam is the more populous, with nearly sixteen million inhabitants, compared to fourteen million in South Vietnam. Hanoi is the capital of North Vietnam, while Haiphong is its chief port. The capital and chief port of South Vietnam is Saigon, with an estimated population of 1,400,000. Recently, the political and military tension between the two countries increased to the point where the United States, in keeping with its military- aid agreement with the Republic of Vietnam, found it necessary to stage amphibious landings just south of the 17th parallel, in DaNang Bay and ten miles upstream from the mouth of the Hue River, supplementing the already present American and Vietnamese troops and providing reinforcements in the war against the Viet Cong. ln March, 1965 a task group, composed of the USS HENRICO and six other amphibious ships of the United States Seventh Fleet, entered DaNang Bay, South Vietnam and commenced an historic landing of United States Marineiper- sonnel, the fir st such operation since the Lebanon landing in 1958. This first landing was supple- mented by later amphibious assaults at Hue fifty miles up the coast from the scene of the original operation, and Chu Lai, fifty miles in the opposite direction. The HENRICO partici- pated in both of these later assau1ts,earning for herself and her crew the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal.

Give him an APC and send him to bed. Hawaii, the fiftieth state of the United States, composed entirely of islands, is at once the country's most western and the most southern state. The Aloha State possesses the world's largest active' and inactive volcanoes, its inhabitants are 'largely Asian in origin, and its mild semi-tropical climate has far less range in temperature than that of any other state. The meaning of the name Hawaii remains uncertain, but it is believed to be a form of Hawaiki, the mythical. an- cestral homeland of the Polynesians. Only seven of the chain's twentv islands are regularly inhabited. The capital and largest city QHonoluluQ is located on the island of Oahu. The crew of HENRICO found many opportunities for entertainment during our three-day stay in Hawaii. Sitting under the stars, we watched Hawaiian hulas, Samoan sword dances, and a host of other festive island dances. Our Polynesian friends fed us their favorite island delicasies and provided us with ample opportunities for purchasing the colngrful Luau shirt and Hawaiian hand- cra ts. HWII The Blow Hole.
