Summary

Description
English: U.S. president-elect Dwight D. Eisenhower with members of his future cabinet aboard the U.S. Navy heavy cruiser USS Helena (CA-75), in December 1952. The people are (l-r):
  • Douglas McKay, designated Secretary of the Interior
  • Herbert Brownell Jr., designated Attorney General
  • Charles Erwin Wilson, designated Secretary of Defense
  • Dwight D. Eisenhower
  • John Foster Dulles, designated Secretary of State
  • Admiral Arthur W. Radford, Commander in Chief U.S. Pacific Fleet (not a future cabinet member)
  • George M. Humphrey, designated Secretary of the Treasury
  • Joseph Dodge, designated Director of the Bureau of the Budget
On 24 November 1952, Helena had been relieved of her normal duties at Yokosuka, Japan, and 5 days later sailed on a special mission. She called first at Iwo Jima where on 1 December Admiral Arthur W. Radford, Commander in Chief Pacific Fleet, boarded the ship by helicopter to visit briefly. Two days later she proceeded to Guam, where Eisenhower, with several of his prospective cabinet members, and Admiral Radford embarked for passage to Pearl Harbor. Top-level policy conferences were held on board. Helena's passengers disembarked at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii (USA), on 11 December 1952, and she returned to Long Beach, California (USA), on 16 December 1952.
