l Commander J. R. Van Sickle Commanding Gfiicer October 1963 - Gctober 1965 Commander VAN SICKLE was relieved as Commanding Qtficer on 26 Qctober 1965 in Buckner Bay, Okinawa. His remarks at the change of command ceremony follow: Qfficers and men of RUPERTUS, shipmates all, a week ago yester- day we held an awards ceremony on this spot. I told you then that letters of commendation from Commander SEVENTH Fleet were on the way. These letters have not arrived. I regret that 1 shall not be here to make the presentations when they do. In the past two years RUPERTUS has steamed 113,238 miles QOver 4 times aroand the worldl and burned 6,670,481 gallons of fuel. She has steamed this far and never missed a commitment, she has shot superlatively well and earned from COMSEVENTHFLT the title of, Fastest Gun in the West,'. She has earned the coveted Communica- tions C and has the reputation of the finest feeder in the Squadron. She has played every existing destroyer role in the 7th Fleet and recei- ved accolades from all command levels. She is combat ready now. She meets the superlative professional standards desired by COMSE- VENTHFLT in every respect. - - RUPERTUS is in my estimation the finest ship in the Pacific Fleet because you are the finest most highly professional ship's company. This will continue so long as you maintain and strive to surpass the professional standards you now have. I am honored to have served with you. l leave you reluctantly, hut confident that with Commander BURKE you are in the hands of a truly superb professional. l shall now read my orders.
