  Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : James Callaghan   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
Callaghan was Chancellor of the Exchequer from 1964 to 1967 during a turbulent period in the British economy in which he had to wrestle with a balance of payments deficit and speculative attacks on the pound sterling.
Callaghan was appointed Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Transport in 1947 where his term saw the introduction of zebra crossings, and an extension in the use of cat's eyes.
Callaghan's support for and from the union movement should not be mistaken for a left wing position: unlike Wilson Callaghan had been a supporter of Hugh Gaitskell in the battles over labour's direction in the 1950s and he settled old scores by sacking the Bevanite Barbara Castle when he became party leader.

 USS Callaghan (DDG-994) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Derived from the Spruance class, USS Callaghan (DD-994/DDG-994) was the second ship of the Kidd class of destroyers operated by the U.S. Navy.
Subsequent to this, the U.S. Navy elected to commission her and her sister ships for service in the Persian Gulf and Mediterranean Sea, as they were equipped with heavy-duty air conditioning and were also well suited to filtering sand and the results from NBC warfare.
She was originally to be named Ming Teh (DDG-1802), but it was later decided to name her Su Ao, after the Su-Ao naval base in eastern Taiwan, and become the second ship of the new ROCN Kee Lung class of destroyers.
