Message from the Captain This cruise book chronicles the latest and most impressive chapter in the life of HENRY W, TUCKER, Reflected in the following pages is the fact that TUCKER was more than just another ship in WESTPAC, During the strenuous five months of operations TUCKER was called upon to perform a multitude of tasks including: Naval Gunfire Support of U, S, and Allied troops in South Vietnam, escort for three carriers in the Ton- kin Gulf, Search and Rescue operations in the vicinity of Haiphong, radar surveillance, helicopter refueling and anti-submarine operations. In ad- dition, the ship has been a home away from home for 270 of our country's finest fighting men. As time passes, this book will be a nostalgic reminder of our tremen dous contribution to our nation's efforts to aid the cause of freedom. We will recall not only such situations as spending 90 of 95 days at sea, ex- tended periods of condition watches, the constant threat of a PT Boat or air attack, battling typhoons and heavy seas and the long hours of main- taining the ship's readiness but also ship's parties at Yokosuka, precious time ashore in Hong Kong and Kaohsiung and even visits to Subic Bay. In all tasks the men of TUCKER performed superbly and with high morale. The ship's outstanding achievements are in keeping with TUCKE tradition and are the result of teamwork, skill and sacrifice of every man on board. AV E? SHELDON D.
