Taipei (Taiwan News) – The Ning Yang Yang (寧陽軍艦) frigate has returned to active duty after major overhaul completed at the end of last year, CNA reported Thursday.
A prominent feature of the ship’s hangar is a flag carrying the slogan “Never give up on my ship”, a phrase inspired by a well -known American Navy. It was first shown by Captain Wang Pin-Cing (王品清 王品清), who was the ship commander from September 1, 2013 to March 1, 2015.
CNA reporters watched staff in the Logistics Support Command for Navy Suao as they performed the frigate maintenance tasks. These include welding, painting, electrical and power.
The slogan “Never give up on my ship” was inspired by a historic moment during the 1812 war between the US and the UK. In a battle in nearby, Uss Chesapeake is involved in British HMS Shannon in a cannon battle.
Captain James Lawrence of Chesapik was mortally wounded by a British sniper. As he was carrying the deck for treatment, he known the words, “Don’t give up on the ship.”
Although historical records differ whether it is the “ship” or “my ship”, the phrase has become a well -known battle cry of the US Navy, symbolizing the last -minute sustainability and dedication.

The name of the ship honors the bold actions of Tuo Chiang PC-104 (沱江軍艦) during the second crisis of the Taiwan Strait in 1958.
Tuo Chiang was awarded an honorary Tiger Flag for his valor, a replica of which is now shown on the prototype ship Tuo Chiang. A picture depicting the original ship moving through rough seas serves as an inspiration for the crew of the ship.
The Taiwanese Navy, part of the world naval community, inherited many military traditions from the 17th -century European fleets. For example, during the public days of the open days, it is customary to see narrow “ordering penanti” hanging from ship masts.
The tradition stems from the Anglo-Dutch wars, symbolizing the Navy and military achievements.
Other naval symbols include “V”, painted on ships to indicate exceptional results in annual training. The yellow stars of HSIUNG Feng (雄風飛彈) launch containers show hits during live exercises.
