Kenneth Whiting: Kenneth Whiting (22 July 1881 – 24 April 1943) was a United States Navy officer who was a pioneer in submarines and is best known for his lengthy career as a pioneering naval aviator.  During World War I, he commanded the first American military force to arrive in Europe for combat.  After the war, he was instrumental in development of the aircraft carrier in the United States, where he sometimes is known as the U.S. Navy' s "father of the aircraft carrier."  He was involved in some way in the design or construction of five of the first six U.S. Navy aircraft carriers, and served as acting commanding officer of the first carrier to enter U.S. Navy service and as executive officer of the first two American carriers.  In the earliest days of the U.S. Navy' s development of an aircraft carrier force, he led many shipboard innovations still in use aboard carriers today.

Service Squadron: A Service Squadron (ServRon) was a U.S. Navy squadron that supported fleet combat units.  Service Squadrons were used by the United States Navy from their inception in 1943 to as late as the early 1980s.  At the time of their inception during the Second World War they allowed the US Navy to operate across the vast reaches of the Pacific ocean for extended periods of time.  Service Squadrons created temporary forward bases to allow the naval squadrons to spend less time in transit and more time in the area of combat.  Ulithi, a small volcanic atoll in the central Pacific, is one such example.  Service Squadrons essentially created a major naval base near the area of operation.  With the naval base at Ulithi to refit, repair and resupply, many ships were able to deploy and operate in the western Pacific for a year or more without returning to a major port facility.  Among the vessels operating in service squadrons were tankers, oilers, refrigerator ships, ammunition ships, supply ships, floating docks and repair ships.  They provided diesel, ordnance, aviation fuel, food stuffs and all other supplies.  Equally important at places like Ulithi were the portable piers and floating dry docks which allowed many ships damaged by enemy action or Pacific storms to undergo repair without having to travel the thousands of miles back to a major US naval base.  Ulithi was as far forward from the US naval base at San Francisco as the San Francisco base was from London, England.  To have a fully functional major port in the middle of the Pacific was a significant aid to U.S. Navy operations.
