•; Beachmaster Unit and warping tugs at Taiwan for Yokosuka ; boats at Yokosuka for Numazu ; Marines and tanks at Okinawa for Numazu - - and then at Numazu for Okinawa ; Sailors at Taiwan for Yokosuka ; Marines and equipment at Okinawa for Korea ; and even a piano and rattan furniture at Hong Kong for Yokosuka. And more than once it was a sunset to sunri e evolution. - The Belle Grove has been called a workhorse of the amphibious fleet, and the strong back of that horse is the men of the Deck Force. Working under the overall supervision of the First Lieutenant, LT R.E. PEDIGO, was number one strongman, ship ' s Boatswain, J. F. HEENEY. For his strong right and left arms he had WEA- THERMAN, BM2, First Division Honcho, and VICTORY, BMl, Second Division, Honcho. To complete the team were the boatswain mates and seamen who were always on station wlien the word was passed. Not to be forgotten by any means was the contribution of the gunners to a successful cruise. Aside from keeping the information flowing, during seamanship evolutions, over the IJV circuit, they spent many long hours keeping the BG ' s big 40 ' s ready for action. The 40MM may be old and obsolete, but it ' s all we got ! And you feel just a little bit safer knowing that the Third Division, led by PENA, GMC, and McGILL, GM2, will have them ready when, and if, they ' re needed. KEEP COOL WHILE YOU WORK
