Extractions: Military Sealift Command Ships of the Line By Salvatore R. Mercogliano In 1973, with the withdrawal of American forces from Vietnam , the last two troop transports - the third arm of the early military sealift triad, the other two being freighters and tankers - were removed from active service, ending the regularly scheduled operations of these ships. This event marked the true transition point from Military Sea Transportation Service to the modern Military Sealift Command. The initial fleet of troopers consisted of a mixture of several different classes but three primary ones emerged: the C-4 General-class, and the larger and more prestigious, hence better paying, P-2 Admiral and General-classes. C-4 Troopships The C-4s had a long and varied service with MSTS. Initially conceived as a vehicle carrier, similar to the successful Seatrain type vessels, the urgent need to deploy troops overseas and concerns over losses to the ships due to lack of adequate watertight protection, led to their conversion into troop transports. At 532 feet in length, and 12,420 gross tons, they were some of the largest vessels built by the Maritime Commission during the Second World War. They could accommodate 228 officers, 3,595 men, and 6,840 tons of cargo, with a cruising speed of 17 knots. Unlike Navy Attack Transports, troopers lacked the watercraft necessary to transfer their charges ashore and were intended for use in point-to-point operations. Both the Army and the War Shipping Administration utilized this class of ship and when the Army Transport Service was transferred to MSTS in March 1950, 23 C-4s were redesignated as United States Naval Ships, with 6 others reactivated for the Korean War.

Extractions: By Nicole Buchanan Even though the sailboats were a highly effective means of transport, the wind was sometimes a problem. If the wind did not provide enough power to drive the ship, men would have to start to row. The use of oars, though, was unneeded when a man by the name of John Fitch introduced his new steam engine. John Fitch was one individual who led to a change in the entire community. John Fitch was an American inventor and metal craftsman who was born on a farm in Windsor Township, Connecticut. Fitch only went through six years of schooling before starting a career in brass work. Later he became an accomplished silversmith and army lieutenant. Finally, he turned his attention to the building of a steam engine that would power ships instead of using oars powered by men. Fitch began his steam engine operation in 1787, twenty years before Robert Fulton's Clermont Fitch was not the only man to make great strides in the shipping industry with the introduction of a steam engine. Robert Fulton also introduced his steam engine twenty years later. Fitch had laid the framework for the steam engine, but Fulton was the man who made the steam engine a success. And along with the steam engine success, Fulton introduced the concept of a submarine. Robert Fulton was an American inventor, civil engineer, and artist who was born on a farm in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. From the very beginning, Fulton was an innovative child. He was always interested in boats, but when he got older, he became interested in the idea of steam propulsion. Fulton got the steamboat project underway in 1807 in New York. The boat that was built came to be called the

Extractions: WASHINGTON DC 20374-5060 World War I 1917-1918 Recognizing the dependence of Great Britain on ocean communications, Germany launched an intense submarine campaign to bring the British to terms, and very nearly did so. Indiscriminate sinkings with accompanying loss of life led the United States into war. After American entry, the outcome hinged upon m a steady flow of troops and supplies across the ocean to the battlefields of France. A vast convoy system of merchant ships, destroyers, and cruisers, went into operation and dramatically reduced ship losses. Naval aircraft, flying from European bases, aided in the antisubmarine effort including the bombing of Zeebrugge and Ostend. Large U. S. Navy minelayers laid some 60,000 mines in the great North Sea mine barrier designed to deny German submarines access to the open sea.

http://www.chinfo.navy.mil/navpalib/cno/n87/history/pac-campaign.html

Extractions: 30 Dec 1999 The year 2000 marks the centennial of the U.S. Submarine Force. Among the most extraordinary accomplishments of American submariners is the impressive victory of U.S. World War II Fleet Boats over the Japanese Navy and Merchant Marine. While many books have been written describing this victory, few understand to what degree the U.S. Submarine Force gutted Japanese industrial and military strength during the Second World War. Such details are contained in the post war U.S. Strategic Bombing Study of Japanese industry and in Mark Parillo's excellent Japanese Merchant Marine in World War II. The U.S. Pacific Submarine campaign had three major accomplishments. First, Japanese merchant marine losses crippled the ability of Japanese industry to generate military power. Second, destruction of Japanese merchant marine and naval forces significantly reduced the Japanese ability to project power throughout the vast Pacific. Third, use of the submarine enabled the U.S. Navy to take the offensive in Japanese controlled waters and inflict disproportionate losses relative to the U.S. investment in submarines. We will review the effects of the U.S. submarine campaign on Japan including the effects on the four military pillars of Japanese power: her merchant marine, Navy, Army and air power. The implication for today's military, heavily dependent on logistics for power projection should not be forgotten. Today, even with the impressive and growing ability of the U.S. Navy to effect land warfare, sea control still remains job number one.

Extractions: This section covers Research Vessels ( R/Vs ), Remotely Operated Vehicles ( ROVs ), Deep Submersible Vehicles ( DSVs ), Autonomous Underwater Vehicles ( AUVs ) and Sonar . The deep submersible, Alvin will be off the Oregon coast most all the summer of 2000. Sonar is getting sophisticated but the basic concept is simple. A "ping" is generated and the time it takes for it to return determines the object's distance. Single beam sonar is now being replaced by multi-beam systems. By "pinging" 100 beams simultaneously, a wide swath can be measured. The data can then be rendered as 3-D computerized maps (bathemetry). CNN explains Today's well-equipped Research Vessel might include sub-bottom profilers that use air guns for seismic profiling, magnetic anomaly detection, 3-D contour mapping using multi-beam sonar, side-looking sonar for imagery that resembles photographs, doppler current profilers, bottom transponders for deep sea ROV navigation, ocean bottom hydrophones and many more.
