DASH DIVISICN Front row left to right, Skowronek, Johnson, Glick, S Project Snoopy was a special classified DASH project conducted off the coast of North Vietnam. The DASH Division worked long hours, to keep SNOOPY flying. To build the system from scratch was an amazing accomplishment for the 8 men of DASH Division. Normally, with the ex- ception of a few flying hours per month, the work done in the hanger is preventive maintenance. DASH Division keeps their two drones in constant readiness against any submarine threat. Within minutes DASH can be readied for launching, Once the rotor blades out through the air at full power umbilicals are disconnected and the last restraint loosened, DASH rises stright up and turn in mid-air to head on vector to t arget, econd row, Lowery, Chavez, Dickerson, Marazita, LTJG Stineman.

Second Chief Grantz. row, LTJG Mallon, Gary, Gardner, Jones, Foultz, Good communications are essential in today's Navyg without them no orders could be received or transmitted, no positions relayed ashore, no organization of any kind outside the ship. Radiomen handle the bulk of communications necessarybetween ships of the task force and ship-to-shore com- munications. Many long nights were spent on Watch in Radio Central, WithBENNER'S Radiomen listening to the droning of the dots and dashes. Then the Radio messenger took over, and travelled what seemed like miles, trying to find all the officers indicated on the message's routing. The radiomen's only peaceful moments came during ElVlCON conditions, when all radio emissions from the ship were silent to keep from revealing its position, Wonderful moment for the radio gang. The Signalmen are easily identified by their ruddy faces and wind-swept hair. This hardy bunch of men resides on Steel Beach. The original stomping grounds of COMSOULPAC and the BENO'S Signalmen generally bring us important tactical messages from the OTC. They also play an important role in recognition and identification of other ships that we in- counter. How many people remember the 3 fast PT boats that appeared out of the early morning fog one day on Sea DI'21g011? They were effectively challenged by the alert signalmen, The signal bridge as everyone knows, is a restricted area, and is reserved for signalmen only! Oh yes, and the Chaplain. The BENO Communications team is a well organized group of radiomen and signalmen who Work together and alwayS come up on the winning side.
