ARRIVES III
USS ARKANSAS (CGN-41)
AROUND THE WORLD
CRUISE 1984
THE LOST ARK
Off on a mission of a great need.
Rode those Razorback men ready to heed.
Underway always, never willing to park.
On came the RIDERS OF THE LOST ARK.
Sagas will say of those exploits someday.
Long after their bodies have stopped their decay.
History will show the steady handed mark.
Of those fearless RIDERS OF THE LOST ARK.
From Aden to Socotra, they followed the "GRAD. ”
Underway again, every man was glad.
At Dehalak we saw that the job was no lark.
On steamed the RIDERS OF THE LOST ARK.
To Suez or not to Suez? That was the question,
Or should we go in the other direction.
That decision belonged to the great deciders.
But it would always affect the LOST ARK’s RIDERS.
‘ tft'U '
On through the Suez, the ARK she came,
Writing on history, her wonderous name.
Crew of crews, this one’s made its mark,
So go the RIDERS OF THE LOST ARK.
The fearless crew headed into the MED,
Ensuring that that sea will never go Red.
Just their presence alone lights up the dark.
Those nuclear RIDERS OF THE LOST ARK.

rUSS ARKANSAS (CGN-41)
The ARKANSAS is the fifth ship to bear the name of ARKANSAS. Previous ARKANSAS'S include three ships
of the fleet dating back to 1863 and one Confederate States ship.
The mission of ARKANSAS is to operate offensively in the presence of air, surface, or subsurface threats
independently or with nuclear-powered or conventional strike forces, and to provide protection to these forces and other
Naval forces and convoys against air, surface, or subsurface threats. USS ARKANSAS is the fourth “VIRGINIA" class
cruiser, and the ninth nuclear-powered cruiser to be built for the U. S. Navy.
To accomplish her designated mission, ARKANSAS is equipped with a fully integrated Combat System combining
four elements: target detection, digital data processing, command and control, and weapons control. Weapons delivery
is accomplished with two multi-purpose dual arm guided missile launching systems with ASROC (anti-submarine rocket)
and TARTAR SM-1 surface to air, surface to surface capability; two 5" -54 caliber light weight gun mounts; two 3
barrel torpedo launchers; and two Harpoon surface to surface missile launchers. In addition to long range surface air
search and fire control sensors, ARKANSAS utilizes the AN SQS-53A long range sonar to round out her capabilities
as a three-dimensional warship.

While on deployment, pass-
ing the time seems to be the only
thing to do. This is done by many
things, mostly work. Almost
everyone fell into the same daily
routine, and varying from this
helped the time pass faster.
These three pages show the crew
at work, making the time pass ...

The work is done for the day
and it is time to relax. But how?
Getting the most out of that time
was important. Over the next

out’’ their own way.

"Words Of Wisdom, Of The Holy Seat
And it came to pass that the chosen arrived
in the ‘'Red Sea ”
And came even with the “Sinai" and the
“Suez Canal,"
And Malcolm was leading them,
BUT LO! Malcolm wanted to go through,
And the chosen wanted to go back.
And Malcolm did take counsel, with the
ancient ones.
And they did whisper in his ear words of
veiled meaning.
And Malcolm turned to his followers, the
chosen
And lifted up his hand, and he gave to them
the word . . .

GROUP
FOXTROT”
USS ARKANSAS operated
in the Indian Ocean as part of
“Battle Group Foxtrot.” The
Battle Group was made up of
nine U.S. Navy ships, including
USS ENTERPRISE (CVN-65).
ARKANSAS’ mission as part of
the Battle Group was to serve
as the early warning detection
system, providing an added
shield of security for the carri-
er.

SOVIET
BATTLE
GROUP
While underway in the Indi-
an Ocean, ARKANSAS was
called away from Battle Group
Foxtrot to conduct surveillance
operations on the Soviet Battle
Group, including the Soviet
Helicopter cruiser LENIN-
GRAD. ARKANSAS was also
called upon to follow the Rus-
sian Kilo-Class submarine.
Along for the ride was an
intelligence group from USS
ENTERPRISE. With their
added knowledge ARKANSAS
was able to gather valuable
information about the Soviet
Navy.

The Handclasp program is
used to enhance the Navy image
at home and abroad. Approxi-
mately $6,300.00 worth of school
books, rice, high protein food,
food drink beverage mix, and first
aid materials were onloaded AR-
KANSAS while in the Philippines.
After carrying the materials
through the cruise, ARKANSAS
crewmembers were given the
opportunity to off-load Project
Handclasp during a port call in
Bridgetown, Barbados. St. Pat-
rick’s R.C. School (primary and
secondary) received some of the
materials, while the rest was
distributed to other locations.

“Navy Times Winner”
1985 New Years Log Entr
LTJG P. F. De Winter
Listen ye sailors
And you shall hear
Of the mid watch tale
For this the new year
ARKANSAS is a cruiser
And not very old
Moored starboard side to
With anchors of gold
Home to the sailors
Who guard her tonight
Home from her cruise
Safe and done right
Pier three Alameda
Is blessed with her now
Eight mooring lines
Standard stern to bow
The lines are nested
And laid on double
Two added storm lines
Discouraging trouble
Reactors one and two
Are both shut down
The Captain's at home
And the crew’s in town
Duty section three is
Charged with her care
Condition Yoke is set
And the weather is fair
Water, sewer and steam
The power and phone
All umbilical cords
To make ARKANSAS home
Home to the sailors
Aboard her today
Home from her cruise
Round the globe one-way
Other Navy units
Are here tonight
Home from their treks
And tied up tight
PYRO, SHASTA and HECTOI
Are all close by
CALIFORNIA and ENTER
PRISE
Near here do lie
SOP A this day
Is COMCARGRU THREE
His flag flies high
On one called big "E”
With memories of oceans
All still alive
The condition today
is readiness five
The year eighty-four
Will long keep its spark
In the pride we created
As riders of Ark
The year eighty-five
We herald with raves
Cause all of our sailors
Are sporting new shaves
Now my tale's not over
It only starts here
The very first log
For this the new year
