Pearl Harbor missle destroyer to leave for Persian Gulf

By Associated Press

HONOLULU (AP) _ Pearl Harbor guided missile destroyer U-S- Chafee leaves today for the Persian Gulf.

The ship will meet up with the more than six-thousand sailors and Marines attached to the aircraft carrier U-S-S Nimitz -- which left San Diego a week ago.

The Nimitz will be relieving the U-S-S Dwight D. Eisenhower.

The destroyers have more than 350 officers and enlisted personnel.
