Jargon
editThis article has a ton of jargon that could easily go over people's head that aren't somewhat familiar with the subject matter.
Examples:
- "At 05:47, Wadsworth's 5-inch (127 mm) guns began to bark,"
- "vectored night fighters"
- "during which they splashed three intruders"
- "training evolutions"
- "The destroyer turned "left full" and the "fish" passed harmlessly by her starboard side.
- "In the summer of 1959, the German transfer crew assembled at Charleston, South Carolina, for indoctrination, while the ship herself was being prepared for turnover."
(Emphasis mine on all of these)
If there is anybody that can help with the translation of these, that would be great. I also saw information that didn't directly pertain to the ship, but to the battles it was involved in generally. I'm completely new to this so I don't want to go in butchering an article so any help would be appreciated. Looking forward to helping more in the future. --Aaguiar1229 (talk) 10:46, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
