'''{{hms|Hexapuma|CA-412|hcn}}''' is a [[Saganami-C-class]] [[Heavy Cruiser]] within [[Second Fleet]]. Commanded by [[CAPTJG]] [[Dame]] Ann Schottler, ''Hexapuma'' claims [[wikipedia:Rockford, IL|Rockford, IL]] as her charter city.

==History==
First commissioned in February of 2014 under [[Captain (Junior Grade)]] Jimmy Nelson, ''Hexapuma'' began her life in [[Second Fleet]] as an independent patrol out of [[wikipedia:Louisville, KY|Louisville, KY]]<ref name="BSD140201">[[BuShips Directive 1402-01]]</ref> A quick-growing unit, her first pinnace, the ''Condor''-class ''Hexapuma-01'', launched in early November of that year to patrol [[wikipedia:O'Fallon, Illinois|O'Fallon, IL]].<ref name"2FO1411C">[[Second Fleet Order 1411-C]]</ref>

In late August of 2015, ''Hexapuma'' was joined by {{hms|Saberpike|CA-417}} in the formation of Cruiser Division 711, expanding her connections further.<ref name="Naval Directive 15AU-06">[[Naval Directive 15AU-06]]</ref> However, in May, 2016, ''Hexapuma-01'' was returned to the boat bay, bringing their crew back into the fold.<ref name="2FO1605B">[[Second Fleet Order 1605-B]]</ref> By the end of 2017, CruDiv 711 was brought under the umbrella of the newly-formed [[Task Force 22]] as an entire subunit.<ref name="ND16DEC01">[[Naval Directive 16DEC-01]]</ref>

By early January, 2021, command shifted to then-[[CAPTJG]] Kerry Kuhn<ref name="BSD210107">.[[BuShips Directive 2101-07]]</ref> Under her command, ''Hexapuma'' has maintained an ongoing tradition of Worldbuilding sessions, book discussions, and especially convention attendance. ''Hexapuma'' 's reassignment to TG22.4 has not dampened this enthusiasm; in fact, it appears to have expanded it. Service alongside {{hms|Demon|CLAC-62}}, {{hms|Vixen|DD-174}}, and {{hms|Interloper|SD-460|hcn}} (née {{hms|Havoc|DD-01}}) has expanded the borders of contact for ''Hexapuma'' 's crew<ref name="ND21JU02">[[Naval Directive 21JU-02]]</ref>, with {{hms|Galahad|DD-478}} being added to the Task Group later; the convention most favoured by her crew is '''Marcon''' in Ohio, but following closely are '''Capricon''' and '''Windycon''' in the Chicago area.
