A DEDICAU ON ln the modern Navy of today, there are two types of ships that may be called indispensable- the destroyer and the submarine. Which is more important is not the point, as they are equally indispensable. The men of the RADFORD are concerned with both-but more so with destroyers, as destroy ers are their home and their life. The RADFORD is a famous and justly proud ship. She is also a versatile ship, capable of detecting and destroying the silent killer of the ocean's depths, providing gun-fire support of amphibious landings, carrying supplies and men to trouble spots , or rescuing the unfortunate victims of the sea's Wrath. To operate such a ship requires the highest level of training, endurance and morale. The destroyerman is a special breed. He is expected to excell in the routine, and accomplish the impossible. lt is to the men of the RADFGRD that this book is dedicated. Q4 DEPARTMF 3 Q JUN 0 1964 LIBRARY

I John F. Kennedy Was not only our country's leader. He was the essence and expression Ofof America's ideals, he stood up to the threats of dictators , tempering fortitude with a SGHSG responsibility and thoughtfulness. We would do Well to pay homage to such a man, and to keep in mind his words: Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for yOl11T country.
