MB Air Force Airman 1st Class Stevan N. Robbins has been deco- rated with the Air Force ~ Achievement Medal.

HB Navy Chief Petty Officer Stephen J. Gnandt, a 1981 graduate ‘of Kings Mountain High School, recently departed for a six-month overseas deployment aboard the nuclear-powered guided missile cruiser USS Mississippi, as part of the USS Theodore Roosevelt Battle Group. Gnandt is one of 595 sailors aboard the guided missile cruiser, which departed Norfolk, Va., in mid-March along with 10 other ships and submarines. The 11-ship USS Theodore Roosevelt Battle Group is a formidable force equipped with jet fighters and at- tack aircraft, helicopters, and ships and submarines armed with Tomahawk cruise missiles. Extremely mobile and flexible, the battle group can operate together, moving nearly 700 miles a day, or can be deployed simultaneously to separate geographic regions. Gnandt and his fellow sailors spent the past year training for a variety of situations they might en- counter during the deployment. . They will be replacing the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower Battle Group, which has been operating { in the Persian Gulf supporting... United Nations operations ‘off Bosnia-Herzegovina in the Adriatic Sea. Gnandt's involvement in the de- ployment is an example of how the Navy and Marine Corps team is designed to operate forward de- ployed overseas and respond quickly when needed. Whether de- ‘livering humanitarian assistance, cargo, or troops from the sea, these highly-trained naval forces provide a unique crisis-response option, which can be withdrawn quickly when no longer needed.
