Oldendorf (DD 972) - Naval Cruise Book

Text from Pages 1 - 104 of the 1994 volume:

On January 19, 1994 OLDENDORF departed San Diego for a six-month deployment to the Western Pacific and Arabian Gulf. lt was to be six months of hard work and long hours broken only by occasional periods of rest and relaxation. Of the 180 days the ship was gone, an amazing 81 'Vo or 145 days were spent at sea. TEAM OLY spent the transit to Hawaii training and never stopped. We generally had two general quarters per week, fired the guns once per week, had one undenrvay replenishment per week lsometimes twol, and conducted countless other training evolutions during our time at sea. Even after we left the Gulf and the anticipation grew for our homecoming, the training intensified due to our detour to Korea. OLY left San Diego with two SH-60B helicopters, their crews and support teams from HSL 45 detachment 6. After stops in Hawaii, an eight-hour visit to Guam, visits to Singapore and Phuket, the ship entered the Arabian Gulf on March 5. During our three month stay in the Gulf we conducted exercises with the Kuwaitis, boarded 9 merchants in and outbound to Iraq during enforcement of United Nations sanctions against that country, and visited Kuwait, Dubai, and Bahrain twice each. For two days OLY served as contingency flagship for Vice Admiral Katz, COMUSNAVCENT, an event that went off without a hitch. On the way home, OLY visited Hong Kong, Pusan, Yokosuka, and again Hawaii. ln the end however, it all proved to be worth it. Not only was the ship more prepared than any of our companion vessels, it was by far the most well kept. Other commanding officers told Cdr. Bouchard they could not believe how good OLDENDOBF looked upon returning from deployment. One admiral even asked another CO why his ship, which had been in San Diego the last six months, did not look as good as OLDENDOBF. The deployment was even completed without a liberty incident, a significant achievement for having spent so much time at sea and having numerous port calls in the Middle and Far East.

D Over 70 tigers rode OLY from Hawaii back to San Diego. During the transit, friends and relatives were to get a glimpse at how demanding lite on a ship can be. They were also able to observe leap- frog drills, an air show by OLY's two helo's, a full power run and many other special demonstrations Many tigers were able to shoot the .50 caliber and M-60 machine guns , shotguns and .45 caliber pistols. The crew also demonstrated the 5-inch guns, CIWS, and the 25MM chaingun. lt was a great chance for the crew to show oft what OLY can do and for the tigers to see what the U.S. Navy is all about. a-mzvfn HOME AT LAST' l l .A ,Vw X M Mxfy X 4 X f x f , or W f , l p Pl , 2 ii Q 4 .l ll l.
