USS HORNE CG-30 ANOTHER PROUD TRADITION WESTPAC 1975 In 1775, our forefathers, who had crossed the ocean in search of freedom, banded together as 13 colonies and established the United States Navy. From this be- ginning, the Navy is linked.in spirit and tradition to each of the 50 states that now form our Union. The 13 stars of the Navy's 200th Birthday insignia represent the 13 original colonies whose Continental Congress formed the Navy. Fifty links on the chain re- present the modern states; and the anchor recalls.the strength and bravery of mankind inspired by the sea. 2 r 3 Commanding CAPTAIN LAWRENCE LAYMAN Captain Lawrence LAYMAN, a native of Lebanon, Missouri, is a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy and was commissioned an Ensign on 6 June 1952.
