I served onboard from January 1987 to May of 1991 and it is by far the best ship I've served on. I was only an FC3 but made second while I was there and it was the most eye opening experience I've had and I'm glad I went through it there. I've also made some lifelong friends while there that still keep in touch. I left the ship before it got out of the yards in Portland and wish I could have been there when she decommissioned but I was in Mare Island, CA. teaching. Now

Went on 2 Med cruises and through the Panama Canal on the way to drydock in Bremerton, WA. in Sept '77. Shipped out in June '78 while she was still in the yards. Man, they sure tore that ship apart .I didn't think they would ever get it floating again. Would like to here from some old buddies from Gun Plot like Frank Quistgaard, Mike Lundquist and even "Big John" Johnson (our First Class). I remember some good times like the Med cruise of '77 when we went up into the Black Sea with a Fast Frigate for two weeks and worried the russians to death. Before we left we pulled along side the FF and

She couldn't have been more than 100 feet off the stern. Their whole crew was topside checking us out. I wonder if they ever got what we were doing? I thought I had pictures but

It was a real serious honor to serve aboard the "Willie Hot Dog". She was/is a good ship with a history of casting a bold presence where American interests were to be represented. The vessel had an excellent balance in terms of the way the ship would roll and heel in the heavy seas. An easy ride in the worst of sea states. With the "Outboard" system on her, the places visited and areas "observed" were of true value to

5/5/1999 23:05 Roger Jackson, aka rjackson@oc.ctc.edu Port Townsend, Washington

"observed" were of true value to the US Navy and our nation. We had an extended cruise off Siberia that would test any ship. The Standley did it very well! It would be good to hear from any former shipmate and I'd be very interested in helping see to it that she goes into a noble retirement of a display status somewhere. If the USS Turner Joy can be preserved, the USS Standley can be every bit as valuable.

Served aboard the Stanley as a BT2, in Number 1 Boiler Room, Engineering Div. ,1973.She was homeported out of Charleston, SC at the time. I came aboard as she came out of drydock and took her to Rosie Roads for a gun and missle shoot before returning to the Fleet. She was a fine vessel, with an excellent crew. Everyone was companionable and the work load was well shared by all. All together a very fine experience.

I served on the Standley from Sept 67 until Feb 70 as a Quartermaster in the Navigation Division. During that time we visited the Med on a tour with the Sixth Fleet, and also did a Westpac cruise for Piraz duty off the coast of Vietnam. When I was discharged from the Navy in 71, I moved to Florida and now live in Orlando. The years I spent on the Standley are full of memories of good times, good friends, and good duty. It was an honor to be part of the Standley's crew.

Only regret is that I didn't stay in touch with the friends I had made, especially those in Fox division. So if any of you are still around drop me an e-mail or something.

I spent over 5 years on the "Hot Dog" and got to know her well, from the sonar dome to the SPS-10 platform. The only other ship that I served on that could even compare to her was the Sterett CG-31, Best homeport, Subic Bay, PI. It is sad that the Standley and her sister ships were decommisioned 10 years early. There are no ships in the US fleet today that as capable as

Reported on board the USS William H. Standley (DLG32) 30 years ago today at 1400. She was in dry dock Charleston, SC. On board from DEC69-SEP71 YN3, Navigation. I'll never forget the Standley or the people I met during that time. I was the 1JV bridge phone talker for Sea Detail and the feeling I got when I past the word over the line "single up all lines" it was time to get underway, those were great times. James Hopkins and Woods Huff are the only shipmates I have had contact with until I found this website

with until I found this website and then Mr. Cooksey and I played phone tag for awhile. I didn't think I'd would ever hear from anyone from the Standley again, this is a great site Gunner, thank you. It was good to see Captain Blanks' picture. Where is Commander McVoy? I've been trying to find Ed Espinosa YN1 for years. Any help would be appreciated. Y'all write. May you have fair winds and following seas.

I spent some of the worst and best times of my life onboard the Willy H.. Some of the things that I remember is getting woke up at about 2:30am for flight quarters, and being told that we were going to attempt to land a CH-53 jolly green giant on the flight deck. I was a blue suit at the time and we all knew what would happen if we tried to land that chopper, CRASH!. Well thankfully the chopper made it to the Nimitz and the next day we were informed that chopper was returning from a botched rescue attempt in Iran. That was 1980 and we recieved the Navy

and we recieved the Navy Expeditionary Medal. Then there was the time that we had a flareback in one of the boilers(I hope that I said that right). When it happened I was on the LeeHelm and we went right to GQ, some of us thought we had been hit by a missle the way it shook the ship. We spent 4 days in Diego Garcia next to a Destroyer Tender the name of which I don't recall. I went to 2 WesPac's and spent 3-1\2yrs.

Upon decom. I have entered the Aegis CG world. But I must say that WHS had many advantages. I still think it was a mistake to get rid of Terrier CG's They should have taken the NTU and just put it on a new hull. They say the reason Terrier went away was due to the high cost. I have been in the Aegis world for over 7 years now and we spend much more on the Aegis system then we ever did for Terrier. The WHS was my

I am one of William H. Standley's many grandchildren. My mother was Marie Herron, no. 4 of his 5 children. My cousin Marion Wincote told me about your site. Our granddad was a super person who loved the Navy and his country very much. He had an enormous curiosity and a sense of wonder, and was full of fascinating stories. He was Ambassador to the Soviet Union when he was 72 years old, traveling to Moscow during WWII across Africa to Afghanistan and in by the back door. I have a copy of

the back door. I have a copy of his book and his memoirs. And he was a very handsome man - that picture sure doesn't do him justice! We were very proud to have a ship named after him, and I was fortunate to pay the Standley a visit in 1988 on a visit to San Diego. I live in New Orleans, wife of a high ranking administrator in the USDA - have grandkids of my own. I love the site! Thank you... Lou Jordan

I was on board from '71-'74. I'll never forget ... losing the helicopter crew while heading over to the Med, the time I shot a Thompson off the fantail, the incredible taste of the peach ice cream in Rio(after the long crossing of the South Atlantic), the very strange things I saw on shore patrol all over the world(do you remember how "clean" the girls were supposed to be in the Seychelles?!)

Well, I see this has changed, as has my e-mail and web site. Anyway, CG-32 was my first ship of five in my 20 year career. 1977 - 78, First Division under Chief Hamilton. Struck for Radioman, went to school, went to USS Chicago. Eventually

to USS Chicago. Eventually SCORE converted to Data Systems Technician, retired a DSC in 1997. Now a Project Manager at BJC Health Care in St. Louis. Had a good time during my time on Standley, but that was the whole reason for being in the Navy. You can see by my retired rank I just kept on having fun - advancement wasn't top on my priorities! As they say, Been to Maine, Spain, Spokane - Around the World 3 times and seen goats **** in the market place, but ain't never seen no s**t like this! Fair winds to all my shipmates!

Served on Board from 10/85 - 6/89. I first served in the Deck Division and then struck to be with the Sonar Guys in 3rd div. Later the division was changed to CA (Combat Acoustics). I hated to hear about the "steamers" decommisioning, I felt as though I lost something, even though I knew she would not steam along forever. I did enjoyed two WESPAC's and many other trips, with my most favorite being the trip to

favorite being the trip to Acapulco in 1986. I have a lot of fond memories as well as some nightmares, but wouldn't change it for anything. I hope that those I served with are all doing well and in good health. Thank you all for serving your country! P.S. My name is also on page 90 but the email address is no longer valid, so I signed the book again.

On board from Dec 87 to July 89. Served in Deck division. The work was hard and I don't think I ever really had a good nights sleep (spent most of my time searching for a fan room with a 1mc speaker). But for some reason all I really remember are the great people I met and the fun we had.

My grandmother was William Standleys niece. Her name is Jane Abbey and Married Elmer MacTaggart out of high school in Oakland, California. I guess that makes me his great nephew. My brother, Brian Hamblin had the opportunity to attend the decommissioning of the ship some years ago. He sounded like a great man and whom I would have like to have met. I hope all crewman that served upon this ship are in good health. Thanks.

I have a great job, live in a nice home, drive a nice car, own three Rolex watches and take wonderful vacations. Well, I'm getting hungry, so I'll sign-off.

I had some enjoyable time on her. I wore Snap-on tool hat on my last west-pac when ever I was in the pit. It was out of uniform, but I was short enough I didn't care...

Great web site! I should have looked for it sooner. I am probably best remembered for the ships radio station WHS. At present, I am transferring the 8mm color movies that I took during the first & second WestPac deployments to DVD. The task will take awhile as the film is old and needs to be edited, but there is some interesting film. When finished, I will be glad to offer DVD copies to interested crew. I will post on this site when available.

I served aboard your ship sometime between 1969 and 1971 as part of the HC-7 helo detachment. One memorable landing was in the fog with near zero visibility. We were talked in using your fire control radar. Anyone remember that?

Served on Standley during 1972-73 as a shipserviceman seaman, working mostly in the ships laundry. Was, and still is to this day a friend and shipmate of Bill Rodebush FTN/GM(?)He was a crewmwn on the 5" gun aft and was injured when he was thrown out of the mount when it made a full sweep with one of the doors open. Cost him an extra year of active duty for surgery and rehab.

Glad to see the guestbook is working. I was one of the Torpedoman in 3rd Division from '74 to '76. There's a link to some photos from the '74 Med cruise from my website. More will be added since I can't seem to get in touch with anybody to have them posted here. For any hard core modelers out there, you can find a model of the USS Horne (CG-30),a Belknap class cruiser at the website below. A change of hull number and you've got the Willie. I say "hard core" due to the list price of the model, $259.95.

78-'81, ET2, OE Div. Served under O'Toole, Roberts and O'Keefe. Assigned to the Hotdog while she was in Bremerton and transferred off in Sasbo during our 2nd WestPac. Remembering Ray Lunak, Wade Norman, Gerry Faber, Jeff Birr, Kerry Kopp and so many others. My favorite printable story has me waiting to go into the ships store, port side and aft of the mess deck below the wardroom ladder. There was one officer and one chief in the store with a sign clearly stating "Two people only at one time" as it was pretty small. Capt. O'Toole comes down from the wardroom and

down from the wardroom and sees me waiting. He proceeds to tell me that "Officers and Chiefs aren't people", opens the door to the store and shoves me in. It's no wonder he made Admiral as soon as he was transferred off! As far as unprintable stories remembering Payroll and Irwin one day on the messdeck at lunch and Mike Brunet's revenge continue to bring a smile to my face. :) Revised to correct my faulty memory.

The Ex-USS William H. Standley DLG-32/CG-32 hulk was towed from Pearl Harbor to Australia in June 2005. She was to be sunk 100 nautical miles off the coast at the conclusion of Joint Excercise "Talisman Sabe 2005" There are photos from a helo firing 50 cal rounds into what is identified as the Stand\ey. An article states that she would be over 4000 meters deep upon sinking. I believe she is down in Davy Joneses locker. I think this is a great site. I served on the William H.

1981-1985 exited DS-3 & ships diver, enjoyed the cruse, loved the ship, Lots & Lots of memories & stories. Saw a lot of most excellent places & did a lot of crazy things. The crew was awsome & made a lot of friends but did not stay in touch. Now 21 years of marriage & 6 awsome children later doing some research I discovered that the old steamer is at the bottom of the ocean, I wish I could of taken my kids on a tour of her one last time. Maybe it will be a scuba adventure instead.

Had a twinge of nastaglia, and thought I'd check out the Standley website. I served on board (as an SM2/1) from Oct 90 (Portland shipyard) to decommissioning in 94. Memories of the days in NW Marine and the trip to Somolia are still there. Anyone who served with me at that time, please contact me as I would like to hear how things are going for ya and what your up to these days.

I joined the ship in Naples in Jan 68 and departed in GITMO in June 70. I was Missile Ordnance Officer, Missile Fire Control Officer and finally Missile Officer (I am an ex-FTM1). During my 30 months, the ship was in our homeport of Mayport, FL, only 4 months. We were definitely steamers. I have many fond memories of serving with a wonderful group of sailors. I made a few mistakes as a JO, but learned from them (I hope). I retired in 1983; final job was CIWS Program Manager in DC.

I remember her as getting distinction in history as the "Lone Watch stander" off the coast of Mogadishu, Semalia. That was her last cruise and and enjoyable one. We had run out of food on that cruise and had no clue what would be served as the MS's dreamed up items. I know I gave up my stash to the Chiefs mess so we could servive. Not knowing where your next meal would come from was some trying times and we still provided hot water and a shower to the Marines on the beach. I will never forget that cruise or our Commander at

cruise or our Commander at decom driving up on the waterfront and watching the Standley be pulled away by tugs to go to her final resting spot. It was a sad moment that only the Capt and I had watching it go away. The Standley did not deserve that as she had years left in her and could be counted on to do what was expected of her and she did it. In 24 years in the Navy, she was my be ship and have fond memories.

I served in Standley from Dec 79 through Jul 81 as Missile Officer and Weapons Officer. One of the highlights was certainly our participation in the operation to rescue the 52 hostages from the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, Iran on April 24, 1980. Lots of sea stories there.

Terry Meeks, as 1st Division rolled out of their bunks. It was the culmination of our failed Iran Rescue Attempt. The stricked RH-53 Sea Stallion managed to make it back to the Nimitz and the rest is history. I marked the anniversary by telephoning former 1st Division shipmate, Tim Shafer. Actually, I'm thinking about all of you today - and wishing you well! All the best, Chris

I said "next one puts his hand on my plot gets stuck with compass." 5 minutes later a hand appeared on the DRT in front of me and I stuck my compass in it.

In 2006 I went to the Smithsonian in DC and they had a CIC recreated in the Naval area. I pointed out and explained every piece of equipment to my wife.

I left the ship at Suda Bay and had an interesting experience on my way back to the States via a MATS flight from Suda Bay to Rota, Spain and a flight the next day on an Air Force Cargo flight to Norfolk and on to the SAC base in Omaha.

Boston, prior to going to Mayport. Is my memory wrong? I'll never forget the first time we went out from Bath with the shipyard workers on board, or the trip from Bath to Boston, or the first time out from Boston with the full crew. A lot of the crew out on the decks, at the guns, seasick, puking all over the place. Looked like a scene from a war movie where a ship might have been hit with a chemical weapon of some type.

Doing research on Agent Orange. Trying to determine if we operated within 10 miles of Vietnam between 1967 and 1971. I had prostate removed due to prostate cancer in 2007. Been turned down for disability from VA because of insufficient data. Wonder if Standley distilled their own water from the Tonkin Gulf. If so, might have an argument for pursuing with VA further.

Served on her during the 1977 Med. cruise. Flew over to Naples and met her there, and then flew back to Maine, right before she came back state side. I split my time between being a E3 Boatswain's Mate & Gunner's Mate. Being on her has provided me with many good memories.
