Someone asked if the ships participating in the Mayaguez operation recieved Combat Action Ribbons. Here's the story as I know it.
I was stationed aboard the Henry B. Wilson (DDG-7) during all three operations. I was an STG-2 at the time. During the Mayaguez mission swift boat activity was reported in the area. Normally we would have had 50 cal. installed where the torpedo tubes where to combat swift boats. The Sonar gang whould normally man the 50 cals. (we were in the Weapons Division) Because we did not have the 50 cals during the Mayaguez mission the ST's were station on deck with M-1's and M-60's to protect the ship from the reported swift boats. The Sonar gang was awarded Combat Action Ribbons for this (no one else on the ship was). Also, the crew of the Mayaguez was delivered to the Wilson in a fishing boat. |

Didn't even know anybody remembered this happened....I've told the story for years and people just looked at me with a blank face. Like most of the Marines there I was also part of Eagle Pull and Frequent Wind. I was a Marine working for S-4 on board. Can't quite remember what I was doing at the time, getting old I guess.
Thanks for Remembering... Patrick Cotton |
