''Helen Zilwicki'' was first brought into commission on 02 June 2014 under the command of [[CAPTJG]] Joseph Morgan in Third Fleet by order of [[Bureau of Ships|BuShips]].  This was a ship upgrade for the crew of {{hms|Devastation|DD-44}} in [[wikipedia:Chesapeake, Virginia|Chesapeake, Virginia]]. After Captain Morgan's behavior at [[MarsCon]] 2015, the XO, Joseph Lyons, was promoted to command. She has participated in many [[Fleet event|Fleet Events]], including [[MarsCon]], [[HonorCon]], and others. However, due to the spread-out nature of the Hampton Roads region, it was thought better to create a LAC Carrier, allowing smaller groups in their geographic regions to have their own identity. So the crew upgraded to {{hms|Specter|CLAC-29}} on 06 May 2015 and ''Zilwicki'' was placed in Reserve status.
Eventually, the ''Zilwicki'' was pulled out of [[Active Reserves|Active Reserve]] on 01 November 2015 and relocated in [[Eighth Fleet]], when {{hms|Jonas Adcock|CA-489}} decided to split into two ships: the western suburbs remaining on the ''Adcock,'' while the rest of SLC became {{hms|Helen Zilwicki|CA-548}}, forming [[CruDiv 801]] under the command of [[CDRE]] Eddy Roberts. They currently attend [[Salt Lake City Comic Con]] as their [[Fleet event]]. When their sister ship, {{hms|Jonas Adcock|CA-489}}, was threatened by the demotion of their command staff, Roberts decided to combine both ships into {{hms|Siren|CLAC-13}}.

HMS Helen Zilwicki (CA-548) was a Saganami-C-class Heavy Cruiser of the Royal Manticoran Navy.

Helen Zilwicki was commissioned on 2 June 2014 under the command of CAPTJG Joseph Morgan, an upgrade for the crew of the destroyer HMS Devastation in Chesapeake, Virginia and assigned to Third Fleet.[1] Command passed to CAPTJG Joseph Lyons on 2 February 2015.[2] To better serve the spread-out Hampton Roads region, the crew upgraded to the LAC carrier HMS Specter on 6 May 2015, and Helen Zilwicki was placed in reserve.[3]

The hull was recommissioned on 1 November 2015 in Eighth Fleet under CAPTJG J. Eddy Roberts, formed when the HMS Jonas Adcock chapter in Salt Lake City divided, with the two ships organized as Cruiser Division 801.[4] On 28 November 2016, Helen Zilwicki and Jonas Adcock were merged into the newly commissioned LAC carrier HMS Siren, and both hulls returned to the reserve.[5]
