About Me:
 
The Charles F. Adams class of guided missile destroyers was a group of twenty-nine ships built between 1958 and 1967.

Twenty-three of these ships were built for the United States Navy, three for the Royal Australian Navy, and three for the West German Bundesmarine

These ships were based on the existing Forrest Sherman class destroyer design, but were the first destroyers designed to serve as Guided Missile Destroyers.

Around 20 seconds, I'm thinking that I need to make some scathing comments about "heavy weather". A second or two later, the real fun started, LOL!

Thank you for putting this page up. I was stationed aboard the USS Lynde McCormick (DDG-8) from 1985-1988, and made both the 1985 and 1988 WestPac Deployments, both of which took us to the Persian Gulf. Met a lot of great people aboard there, and have a lot of fond memories
