The 30 March 1972 Easter Day Offensive consisted of a massive, coordinated three-pronged attack. In response, President Nixon called up a massive buildup of naval firepower. This included the Norfolk, Virginia based USS Mullinnix DD-944. The last all-gun destroyer in naval history. She participated in 171 NGFS missions, delivered 14,472 rounds in 88 days of combat action. Surviving enemy counterbattery on four occasions.Few books have been written from a Navy perspective. And the majority of those focus on aircraft carriers, planes, and Brown Water Navy. This book is different. It’s about a gunship, with only one mission. Naval Gunfire Support (NGFS).It’s not written by a retired Admiral or four-striper. Just a regular E-3 who happened to have the unenviable job of pulling the trigger. The story is real and historically accurate. It’s raw and honest. It illustrates the exhaustion, humor, tension, destruction, and terror of war. Anxiety, fatigue, and dread. Intensity that was unbearable, even excruciating. The astonishing closeness of shipmates, the attitude, regrets, and mental anguish. Simple survival. This is our story.
