~TIVE CF SIG\IIFICANT EVENTS

Th e year 1990 started with IVOJSE inpor t Charleston. Holiday standdown was continuing as IVO)SE wrapped up Selected Restricted Availability and Intermediate Maintenance Activity.

Early part of the year was spent returning the ship to nonTial operation after the ma intenance period. The inspection and refresher training in Guantanamo Bay brought the ship back up to speed ln preparation to depart on Aug 24 for a six week deployment to the North Atlantic for Operation Tearrwork 90.

The most exciting moment of the year occurred ln August. tvt:X)SE was informed on a Friday nigh t that she would be deploying in five days to support Operation Desert Shield. The crew worked around the clock to finish up jobs ongoing as part of an i nte rmediate maintenance availability. The preparations included the change out of a LM2500 gas turbine eng ine. Preparations f or a major deployment which norma l ly take thirty days were completed in record time.

l l

"16RRATIVE CF SICNIFICANT EV8\ITS (a:NT'D)

MXJSE'S rnain responsibility in Desert Shield was Maritime Interception Force (MIF) operations. The goal was to enforce restrictions on goods bound for Iraq.

Acting as part of the Multi-National Force, MXJSE conducted as many as three boardings a day on ships proceeding in and out of Aqaba, Jordan. The operating area in the northern Red Sea took on the name TOTO STATION after a remark by one of the ships that ''we're not in Kansas anymore''· The individual ship sector's names include Oz, Wizard, Emerald City, Wicked Witch, and Glenda.
