Delivered 28 June 1966 and commissioned on 9 July 1966. William H. Standley earned four battle stars for her service along the coast of Vietnam.[1] From June 1990 to August 1991, William H. Standley received a comprehensive overhaul including New Threat Upgrade (NTU), a major anti-aircraft warfare systems improvement.[2] After more than 27 years of service, William H. Standley was decommissioned on 11 February 1994. She was struck the same day and would be sunk in a fleet exercise. ex-William H. Standley (DLG-32) and ex-Elliot (DD-967) were sunk off the eastern coast of Australia as part of Exercise Talisman Sabre on 25 June 2005. Both ships are now artificial reefs in the Coral Sea located near 25 degrees south latitude, 155 degrees east longitude, or roughly 100 nautical miles (190 km) east of Fraser Island, Queensland, Australia.
