Seeking ship's history of USS Joseph Strauss (DDG-16)

William Pine May 6, 2020 12:49 PM

I am trying to get a copy of the ship's history for 1969 for the USS Joseph Strauss DDG-16. I have a copy of the deck logs for 1969, but the ship's history was not included as it was for other years. I think it might have been classified, but, since the original request was made years ago, I am hoping that it has been declassified by now.
