HISTORICAL NOTE
On 1 September 1961, Rear Admiral Joseph C. Wylie became Commander Cruiser-Destroyer Flotilla 9, aboard USS Oklahoma City CG-5. In 1973, a major reorganization of the US Navy's cruiser-destroyer force resulted in Cruiser-Destroyer Flotilla 9's re-designation as Cruiser Destroyer Group 5 (CDG-5). On 1 August 1992, USS Kitty Hawk CV-63 was appointed as Commander, Naval Air Force Pacific's "ready carrier." In January 2002, the flagship of Cruiser Destroyer Group 5 was changed to the USS Nimitz CVN-68. On 1 October 2004, Cruiser Destroyer Group 5 was re-designated Carrier Strike Group 11.
