The ship is the last in the series of 27 frigates of the KNOX class built by Avondale Shipyards under multiple-year procurement contracts. - The ship contains an impressive array of electronic equipment and weapons. Its armament centers around the nuclear - capable homing torpedo which may be launched by either Anti- Submarine Rocket CASROCJ system, torpedo tubes, or Light Air-Borne Multi-Purpose System CLAMPSJ helicopter. In addition the ship has a 5 f 54 rapid fire gun which provides anti-air and anti-surface defense. During her first year in commission, MOINESTER participated in refresher training at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and later conducted field trials of a newly installed sonar system. In the fall of 1975, she made the first landings of the SH2 LAMPS helicopter on board also. The ship deployed to the Mediterranean in April 1976, where she made port visits to 7 cities in 3 countries as part of our country,s first line of defense and ambassadors of good will and peace. -- na Ulf? HLA' H2317 in M37 fills LT., Elms. Weii 'Wm Kufw ROBERT W. MOINESTER LIEUTENANT QIUNIOR GRADED, USNR 15 JULY 1943 - 31 JANUARY 1968 ROBERT MOINESTER enlisted in the United States Naval Reserve in 1965, upon gradua- tion from St. Johns University. Upon completion of training at Naval Amphibious Base, Cor- onado, CA he was assigned to the U.S. Naval Supply Activity, DaNang, Vietnam. On the morning of 31 January 1968, while serving as OIC of the Hue Ramp, Hue Detach- ment, LTC-jgj MOINESTER and his ramp personnel were enroute to their assigned work areas in Hue. Unaware that the city had been infiltrated by a large number of North Vietnamese Army units during the night, the column continued toward Hue and suddenly came under hostile mor- tar fire. LTCjgJ MOINESTER organized his men into an infantry platoon composed of Navy, Marine Corps and Army personnel and led them in house-to-house clearing operations under in- tense enemy fire. Observing enemy soldiers to his front, he organized a frontal attack. Although LTQjgj INIOINESTER was killed during the attack, the enemy were driven from their reinforced positions and sustained heavy casualties. For his heroic actions, LTQjgJ MOINESTER was posthumously awarded the Silver Star, as well as the National Order of Vietnam and Gallantry Cross with Palm from the Republic of Viet- nam. It is to the memory of LTQjgJ MOINESTER AND THOSE U.S. servicemen who fought and often died so bravely that we dedicate this first cruise book of the USS MOINESTER. ,,-,.:..::a.-mn.r:.:::2y5-1 ' f'.::: E If!

L r ' f KI I r f x e lf f ANGE OF COM ' THE PRESTIGE, PRIVILEGE AND THE BURDEN OF COMMAND Only a seaman realizes to what great extent an en- tire ship reflects the personality and ability of one in- dividual, her commanding officer. To a landsman this is not understandable and sometimes it is even difficult for us to understand. But it is so. A ship at sea isra distinct world in herself and in consideration of the protracted and distant operations of the fleet units, the Navy must place great power, responsibility and trust in the hands of those leaders chosen for command. In each ship there is one man who, in the hour of emergency or peril at sea, can turn to no other man. There is one who alone is ultimately responsible for the safe navigation, engineering performance, accurate gunfire, and morale of his ship. He is the Commanding Officer. He is the ship. This is the most difficult and demanding assign- ment in the Navy. There is not an instant during his tour as Commanding Officer that he can escape the grasp of command responsibility. His privileges in view of his obligations are almost ludicrously smallg never-the-less, Command is the spur which has given the Navy its great leaders. It is a duty which most richly deserves the highest. time-honored title of the seafaring world .... CAPTAIN. On June 23rd, while the ship was par- ticipating in Operation Fluid Drive, change of command ceremonies were held on board USS MOINESTER. CDR. STEWART, having served as both PCO and the ship's first CO, was relieved by LCDR ALEMIAN. .. gg- 9 I O 5 3 x THE EXECUTIVE OFFICER LAMENTS EXECUTIVE OFFICER LCDR ROBERT L. HICKS, USN Lieutenant Commander HICKS was commissioned an Ensign upon graduation from the Naval Academy in June 1962. He was assigned to the USS BIGELOW CDD 9421 as Gunnery Officer for his first sea tour.

He is a graduate of the Navy Post Graduate School and came to MOINESTER from duty as an instructor at the Naval Academy. LCDR HICKS is married to the former Shelby Langford and they have three sons, Ragan, Steven and Kevin. His decorations include the Vietnamese Campaign Medal with 3 stars and the Vietnamese Service Medal. AS NEARLY EVERYONE knows, the Executive Of- ficer has practically nothing to do, except decide what is to be done, to tell everybody to do it, to listen to reasons why it should not be done, why it should be done by somebody else, or why it should be done in a different way, to follow up to see if the thing has been done, to discover that it has not, to enquire why, to listen to excuses from the person who should have done it, to follow up again to see if the thing has been done, only to discover that it has been done incorrectly: to point out how it should have been done, to conclude that as long as it has been done it may as well be left where it is: to wonder if it is not time to disrate a per- son who cannot do a thing right, to reflect that he pro- bably has a wife and large family, and that any relief would be just as bad and proably worse: to consider how much simpler and better the thing would have bene done if one had done it oneself in the first place: to reflect sadly that one would have done it correctly in twenty minutes, and as things turned out it has taken two days to find out why it has taken three weeks for somebody to do it incorrecty.

Crew members met their counterparts on board AINSWORTH and learned what to expect in the Med. With only two full days in port, the Navy Exchange proved to be the most popular point of interest. Crewmen loaded up on uniforms and souvenirs alike. Finally on the 27th, with some apprehension, MOINESTER departed Rota as part of Slxth Fleet.

HOT 1 lr ASW SQUADRON TAV I f 9 p s APLES Naples was our most frequented port in the Med. Our first visit was for a TAV with USS PIEDMONT. Crew members took full advantage of a variety of infor- mal tours to the outlying areas such as Ischia, Capri, Pompeii, and Vesuvius, a live volcano. The city itself was filled with cries of Hey Joe ringing from the street vendors as they hawked their trinkets, rings, watches, cameos, and other wares. The facilities at the NATO base and Naval Support Activity were us- ed to replenish stateside wares and the local USO became the home-away-from- home for many crew members. U I 1 4 1 1 !

Located on the heel of the Italian boot, the town is a Walk into the past with its stately and picturesque buildings and narrow streets. The town is full of history from the pre- Roman Empire days up to the Nazi occupation during WW II. The townls most prominent feature is the huge memorial to sailors. Shaped like a shipls rudder, it is visible from quite a distance and is a reminder to all sailors of those of our profession who have lost their lives upon the sea.

From narrow streets and small shops to the latest and most modern hotels in Italy. Both towns offered a wide variety of shopping and sightseeing experiences. Many of the crew took advantage of a trip to the top of Mt. Aetna, a highly active volcanojust a few miles from town. We celebrated the Bicentennial 4th of July on the beach of Giardini with a two day beach party and cookout. Both local dignitaries and visiting American tourists attended and helped make our celebration a success. OR SIR M ' uf '1 ' fx ' I , , 1 W . M fs LW! l ...xnxx . , , I '-T J' ,Jr Q X W-N SX ' .

The town itself is located on the French Riviera and is the home of Bridgett Bardot and a favorite port for thousands of yacht and boat owners. The crew was a special guest of the town, helping celebrate the 30th anniver- sary of the Allied landing there in World War II. On Sunday the Captain and Honor Guard participated in special memorial services at the town park, and later the town honored the ship with a ball held in the town park. After such a welcome change of pace, it was very difficult to weigh anchor without regretting that we could not stay with our friends in St. Tropez for just a few days longer. 2 ' 1 A , A fi-' +1u :I'P ::-1,1 ww' ga' 'rr-jo' , ' 2 A': - X nn!! ,gy 3 ,M Vi K JLMHQX 2, , 3 16 gg 2 hi N 1 - I f 4 f fl- ..A. . - ,.............-..-..,-.

Situated on the southeast coast of Spain, it is an attractive city, filled with small shops, sidewalk cafes, and colorful discos. Handsome horse-drawn carriages awaited our ar- rival on the pier, ready to take sailors into town in style. During this port visit, MOIXESTER challenged CONNOLE to a softball game in the nearby town of Torremolinos. Though the final score is still questionable, the fun had by everyone was quite evident. 1 PORT VISITS NAPLES, ITALY 'Y' F an ll ll SAINT TROPEZ, FRANCE ' I' HI rpf TAROMINA SICILY gg r' :H T'- lg NOW STATION THE UNREP DETAIL .

We've learned a lot from this book, both good and bad, and our mistakes should help make the next edition much better. I doubt if many crew members realize how many people and manhours go into the production, layout and photographing of a cruise book, however, I invite you to find out during the next cruise. To those many individuals who contributed photos thanks from the cn tire crew It is your work that makes the book possible Ex en though I am certain some names have been left out your help is appreciated To thc rest of the crew here it is! A brief trip down memorv lanc for those who made the Med cruise May this book in some wav capture the spirit of the 'Nlcd cruise that helped carry the ship to its final awards for Battle Efficiency in 1976 JIM BI RCHER Prlnted Sz I ubllshcd bx Ilskty I lthogrlph Cmpox It mn Norfolk Nngxmn uQinnhdnn1umnwu..wn-vxmoqww--v,.v...1.w -Q.-r.
