in L ,,,..,....-.U-.,.,...s.1.-..'ee5q's:g-,eggw,,'ee-'2-ff '2?'SeIti5Q?5:if92fF32 Tt Acknowledgements Any creative art is born of more than mere idea or well-intentioned gesture. Each stillborn child of genius attests to that This picture book, whatever its shortcomings is an idea nutured by many well-intentioned gestures, our few talents, and a great effort. It is the work of many people. QM3 Dodds produced virtually all the excellent photography. It was not simply a matter of taking pictures. Petty Officer Dodds lurked around in IUSI about SVGVY SDHCG onboard in an effort to include everyone's picture in the book. In all he took over 1400 pictures. This only began his work because the tedium came as he indefatigueably processed, edited and finally printed those chosen for final proofs. This was done in a sink in the filter cleaning room under hardly ideal conditions. STG2 Gardner worked with Petty Qfficer Dodds and Contributed a considerable number of photographs. Ens. Kelly, Lt. Butler, OSI Fisher, Lt. Butzon Lt. Rinn Ens. Brunson, Ens. Swaysland, SR Bennet, Lt. Burdette, Lt. Bloom, and a Sonar Tech from the USS Dewey all contributed photographs. Most of the layout design was done by STG1 Morlick. This encompasses the myriad of minute details which must accompany every group of pictures and requires great patience, foresight, concentration, a scaleograph, printers ruler, lots of beer and considerable swearing. STG2 Hendrix worked closely with Petty Officer Morlick. The man who has suffered the most headaches and will surely get the least credit is LTtjgl Henry, who spearheaded the fund raising effort. Largely through his efforts, very few corners were cut for the expense of the book. There are others who perhaps should be mentioned here for their assistance during bingo and other fund raisers, but let a general thanks suffice with a particular note of gratitude to all of you who so eagerly donated money on collection nights. Mr Gregory Nygard of Western Yearbook provided advice and technical assistance and was helpful and tolerant from our first meeting in Naples There are others who could be included here whose help in some way was essential to the realization of the book. Thank you all But this book is a catalog of moments and memories we have shared as shipmates This book is only possible because each of us has shared part of himself. My final and special thanks to the men who sweat - to the shipmates to whom this book is dedicated. Shuford ery respectfully, , This was almost stillborn. I inherited the book with the goal of finishing it. My effort was toward continuity and completeness, IF: responsible for about half the layouts. lvlr. Conrad contributed the CIC copy, Mr. Fitsimonds the navigation copy, Mr. Burdette LSE copy, and Mr. Kelly the ASW copy. The wise man's son quote is from Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. The copy in The Ship tion is from Lord lim by loseph Conrad. The rest of the copy is mine. I made changes in the book consistent with the thoughts original creator, the material available, and the common rules of layout, design and a sense of fairness. I accept responsibility G blame for the book in its final form. I add my thanks to QM3 Dodds. He contributed more than any other single person. STG2 ndrix kept the book, and my sanity, together. PNSN Roundtree did the final copy typing. Greg Nygard should not have had :put up with what he did. I apologize to him and thank him. I also apologize to those who have been waiting for this book. I pe it is satisfying enough to be worth it. If it is not I can accept the blame. If it is, I can accept only part of the credit. DPS 177
