This has been a symbol of inspiration to every seagoing American warrior for the last two hundred years. The determined spirit of its predecessor is personified inthe success of CVA-31, the new BON HOMME RICHARD. I The original ship was a high poop-deck Indiaman built in 1776 by the East India Company to serve as a merchant ship between France and ports in China and India. John Paul Jones, together with King Louis XVI and Benjamin Franklin, who was the Colonies Commissioner to France at the time, made plans for an American squadron to prey upon British commerce and aid in the fight for independence from Great Britain. These plans culminated in Franklin buying the India- man, then named the DUC DE DURAS, during the Revolutionary War. Jones supervised her conversion from a merchant vessel to a man-of-war, including the addition of 42 guns provided by the French, and made her ready to lead a combined French and American force. The frigate was renamed BON HOMME RICHARD, which was the French idiom for Franklin's book, Poor Richardis Almanac. Jones, in redesigning the frigate into a two-deck war- ship, had little with which to work. She was notoriously slow, old, weak, and her brine-soaked hulk had been condemned by insurance companies. Beside the fact that her sails were rotton, her hull barnacled, and her deck blistered, the guns were museum pieces with cannon balls so small that oakum wads were wrapped around them. A This 152 foot continental frigate sailed from La Orient, France, on June 19, 1779, with Jones as her captain, leading a seven-ship squadron toward the coast of the British Isles. Enroute they encountered fierce gales which wreaked havoc on the ships. Further, a conflict of interests with the captain of the ALLIANCE, also an American frigate, resulted in a collision of the two ships and the BON HOMME RICHARD losing her jibboom. Ultimately, the squadron came across the Baltic Merchant Fleet which Jones had been eagerly seeking to engage. The combat, which began at dark was BON HOMME RICHARD,s last and most famous battle. BON HOMME and HMS SERAPIS, commanded by Captain Richard Pearson, simultaneously ex- changed broadsides with more powerful SERAPIS inflicting severe damage to the BON HOMME RICHARD. The SERAPIS gave another broadside, again riddling the BON HOMME. The ALLIANCE, failing to recognize Jones' ship in the moonlight, fired on both ships, almost sink- ing the BON HOMME RICHARD. Finally a favorable wind allowed Jones to ram the SERAPIS, and with heavy hawsers his men lashed the enemy's bowsprit to the BON HOMME RICHARD's shrouds. Pearson, seeing Jones' ship riddled from stem to stern and fires raging close to the maga- zines, asked Jones if he wanted quarter. In view of the naval axiom that no ship is lost until her captain thinks it so, Jones replied with his famous words that have been immortalized in United States Naval History ever since. The battle turned swiftly. Jones' marines, acting as snipers from the rigging, had cleared the SERAPIS' gun decks. Accurately tossed granades had detonated her powder in a huge burst of flame and smoke carrying away the mainmast and taking many lives. Jones' boarders swarmed over the rails onto the SERAPIS and attacked with pike and cutlass. Captain Pearson had seen enough bloodshed and personally struck his colors. Captain John Paul Jones then transferred his command to the SERAPIS and cut away what was left of his former ship, which soon settled by the bow with her stern lifting high out of the water. The American flag was the last part of the proud BON HOMME RICHARD seen, the l21Sf SyII1b0l Of the ship which started out a tramp, became a wreck, and was enshrouded with glory lilly her crews' performance in the last big engagement fought overseas by the American Continental avy. de zeaem! Ewzzging 'Me 'fzaaldtdoa into 'Me anime History began for the second USS BON HOMME RICHARD on November 26, 1944, with her commissioning at the New York Navy Yard. Soon afterwards she answered the call of the sea to battle and began making a trail which would see the name BON HOMME RICHARD heralded on the sea, in the air, on two oceans, and in two wars. After training excercises and a shakedown cruise off Trinidad, the ship proceeded to the Bay- onne Navy Yard for post-shakedown repairs before becoming a part of the Pacific Fleet on March 24, 1945. Shortly thereafter, BON HOMME RICHARD was ordered to San Diego to load aircraft and personnel for transportation to Pearl Harbor. Thirty-three and one-half hours later, on April 1, 1945, she departed San Diego arriving at Pearl Harbor on April 5, 1945. While conducting training operations in the Pacific, a night air group was assigned, making her a night aircraft carrier. This was shortly after the ENTERPRISE, which was then the only night carrier with the Fast Carrier Task Force, was damaged during operations in support of the Okinawa Campaign. Having joined Task Force 38 at sea the BONNIE DICK flew combat air patrol and launched day and night strikes against Okino and Daito Jima. With Task Force 38, the ship proceeded to the Philippine Islands, and from there participated in operations consisting of air and surface activities against enemy installations. In general, these air strikes and surface bombardments were on Hokkaido, Honshu, Kyushu and Shikoku, culminat- ing in the cessation of hostilities on August 15, and the formal surrender by the Japanese nation on September 2, 1945. Through September 15, the ship operated off the southern and eastern coast of Honshu, flying Combat Air Patrol, airfield reconnaissance flights, prisoner of war camp reconnaissance flights, and supply drop missions to P.O.W.,s. On September 16, after being continuously underway for 78 highly eventful days, she entered Tokyo Bay and dropped anchor, ending her World War II activities which had given the BONNIE DICK the reputation of being the Black Phantom for repeated night raids by her Night Carrier Air Group. For the remainder of 1945 the ship shuttled between Pacific Island ports transporting passengers for discharge on 'Magic Carpet' duty. By July 31, 1946, she had steamed 92,245 miles since com- missioning and was at that time decommissioned at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, Bremerton, Washington. BON HOMME's days of rest were numbered evepn as she was sealing her last porthole, for Communist aggression was at that very time on the move. Shortly after the Communist invasion of South Korea in June of 1950, the carrier was called out of the reserve. RecommissionedJanuary15, 1951, the ship began strikes against targets in Korea following training operations off California. Throughout the Korean conflict, the 'BONNIE DICK, and her air groups tallied an impressive record of strikes against enemy railroads, hydroelectric projects, industrial areas, aircraft, and other war materials. Following the Korean Conflict, the BON HOMME RICHARD was once again decommissioned on May 15, 1953, and this time went to San Francisco Naval Shipyard to receive a major conversion. San Francisco saw the recommissioning two years later, of the BONNIE DICK with a 'new look.' She now boasted such salient features as an angled flight deck, enclosed hurricane bow, larger capacity elevators, steam catapults, and the latest radar equipment and armament. After 27 months, and having undergone the largest and longest conversion job ever attempted in the yards at Hunteris Point, California, the BONNIE DICK became one of the Navy's most modern carriers. During the years since major reconversion, the BON HOMME RICHARD has logged many firsts as man overboard, general quarters, practice flights, air defense, replenishing and refueling drills have been held. Underway training, timely periods at sea, minor and major missions, fleet reviews, fleet activity participation, and ambassador of good will to the peoples of the world are a part of her peacetime purpose. The title Ready Ambassadors for Peace has been earned by the men of this ship which is active in the President's People-to-People program, and makes her crew proud to be part of 21 great ship, the USS BON HOMME RICHARD, CVA-31. .1f...f.f.,.......v..-.1-rv,-nwnr-n1-.wpnf-1-y.--v-vw.-. f-.-nr-nkxnhnnuxnn.1.:..z:z. , 11.M,-.1-xaa-xqunnngaga-uoskhhhhhh?TMP.

Sedaker has served in every enlisted and officer pay grade up to his present rank with the exception of Ensign. And as a result of the officer selection board convening, he will soon be serving as a Captain. Commander Sedaker began his Naval career as an enlisted man aboard the USS DETROIT in 1936 after attending high school in Schnectady, New York. Car- rier experience began early when he transferred to the USS LEXINTON, CV-2, in 1937 as a wire operator in the arresting gear crew. His flight training came in 1941 at Pensacola, Florida as an aviation machinists mate second class. Becoming a first class on graduation, he received his wings in Miami in October of 1941. Commander Sedakeris first squadron assignment was Torpedo Squadron 7 aboard the USS YVASP at the outbreak of WWII. Later service saw him as a fighter pilot in the Philippines, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa cam- paigns. From his rate of Chief Aviation Pilot, he was commissioned Lieutenant junior grade in September of 1943. In the later stages of the war, he led a VF division which shot down 13 enemy aircraft. Following the war, Commander Sedaker was flying Ryan Fireballs which had both conventional and the new jet engines. From the new jets, he went to VF 174, the first jet fighter squadron in the Navy to become carrier qualified in 1947. Following a tour of exchange duty with the Air Force, he was skipper of VF-121 in 19567-57 during which time he was promoted to Commander. Joining the BONNIE DICK as her exec was not his first tour aboard. In 1960, he had been Commander of Air Group 19. Commander Sedaker's medals include the Distin- guished Flying Cross with three stars, the Air Medal with four stars, and the Navy Unit Commendation among others. 22'Z6ZZ77W2' 07776225 Commander James M. Johnson has served in the U.S. Naval service since 1941. In 1942 he gained his commission as an Ensign and his wings as a Naval Aviator. The fiying career of Commander Johnson began as a patrol plane commander in 1942. During the greater part of WW II, he served with European based patrol squadrons. Later service saw him in a night fighter squadron in the Pacific. Since that time, he has had duty with various conventional and jet Naval squadrons. Shore duty time has been spent in the Bureau of Ordnance, on the staff of the Chief of Naval Air Basic Training Command, Pensacola, Florida, Post Graduate and General Line School at Monterey, California, and just prior to his tour with BONNIE DICK as her Exec, Commander Johnson was Assistant Chief of Staff for Operations on the Staff of the Commander Pacific Missile Range. While serving in the Korean Confiict, he was Air Operations Officer on the BONNIE DICK, so that returning as her Executive Officer was very similar to coming home. Commander Johnson attended the Missouri School of Mines where he majored in Mechanical Engineering. He is presently a member of the American Rocket Society and the American Society of Mechanical Engi- neers. Included among his awards are two Air Medals, Navy Unit Commendation, Korean and United Nations Medals, and the European and American Theatre Ribbons. Commander Johnson, along with the BONNIE DICK's present Exec, Commander Sedaker, was chosen by the convening board for selection and promotion to Captain this year. 5. 9 D2 4 , gafmsaw Wmazafezy-gaadeeme 0,1 Me we Cdr.

It thereby plays a major role in carrying out the mission of the USS BON HOMME RICHARD. The Admin Assistant acts as aide to the Executive Officer and is responsible for the various offices within the department. Many of the offices are in the charge of another officer who is in turn responsible to the Admin Asst. The Admin Dept. encompasses the Captainis Office which is under the direction of Ltjg Nelson, the shipas secretary. The Education and Training Office is under the guidance of Ltjg Scott, the Legal De- partment Ens. Hoffer and Ens. Gibson, and the Personnel Office is directed by Ens. Feeney. LCDR Bost and LCDR Ernst are the Protestant and Catholic Chaplains respectively with their head- quarters in the library. They provide an up-to-date library, sponsor tours, and most important, conduct church services for the crew. Admin is also responsible for the Public Information Office, the hobby shop, career appraisal, and the print shop where the Plan of the Day and shipis newspaper is published among many other printed items. W The Master-at-Arms Force is also under the direction of the Admin Dept. and is staffed by petty officers who are on temporary duty to the force from various divisions. Although Admin is responsible for 10 important offices and work centers only 55 enlisted men and nine officers are on the department's muster sheet. CDR.

RICH and the Assistant Air Officer, CDR. G. D. RICHARDSON, the department does a job more than equal to its size. The primary function of the Air Dept. encompasses all move- A 'R ments and handling of AXC on the flight and hanger deck, the launching and recovering of all aircraft, the refuel- t W ing of all aircraft, and the operation of the many essential AXC maintenance shops aboard the ship. i To smoothly accomplish these big jobs the 400 men and 12 officers in the Air Department work long, hard hours, and when flight quarters is sounded these hours quite often stretch long into the night, and finally, when the last plane has been recovered and safely secured in place everyone can rest. One of the highlights of this cruise was the catapult crews, 40,000th accident free launch. For this feat the men of V-2 received a cake and Cap. Bullard's personal congratulations. During the July Operational Readiness f ' Inspection the Air Department received a grade of EXCELLENT. In Subic Bay the Air Department had a big 1 YE , party which will be long remembered by all, even the Captain, who attended and got tossed in the bay. These are 5 s 1 just a few of the rewards that the men of the Air Department receive for a job well done. A i 1 M iii 1' 2 ,gl l 1 I -l .yi 5, I 1 I 4 , I 1 CDR. G. D. RICHARDSON LCDR R.W.

While on the cruise, BON HOMME RICHARD's Air Department was awarded the coveted E 'i for excellence. This award reflects the vigor and determination of the BGNNIE DICK's Air Dept. which gained the award by continually maintaining and seeking to further their ability as the best among attack aircraft carriers in the Pacific Fleet. While the Air Dept. feels it was a united effort by all handsg nevertheless, they can feel proud of their departmental accomplishment over all the other CVA's. On the pages to follow are the stories of the people that made the E i' award possible.

The Roofrats', have many varied jobs all hinged with danger, which they take in stride and function as a well drilled, coordinated team. The flight deck is divided into three Hys, with each fly having two plane handling crews for movement of aircraft through their specific area during launch and respot. Ensign H. WV. Burns, men of Repair Eight provide tractor drivers, to expedite shuttling of aircraft, hot suit men, and crack firefighters whose job it is to rescue pilots from burning aircraft and put out any flight deck fires, remove disabled aircraft and make emergency repairs to the flight deck. V-1 Division has proven that is has the stamina to act as the foundation of our Air Department. The 'gRoofrats,' prove their superiority day by day, showing an outstanding performance while being exposed to all types of weather and hazards. The job goes on day and night, in port and at sea, and the men of V-l are always ready to get the job done.

Our job, often dull, sometimes thankless, and always tiring, is moving aircraft on the hangar deck. Additional duties include cleaning and up- keep of our part of the ship, upkeep of lire lighting equipment, and of course, standing the external watches. Our division, or per- haps more aptly termed, our team, takes justifiable pride in getting the job done, and getting it done safely. We enjoy a re- putation of being a Can Doi' outfit. We also have a reputation for being charitable, as is attested to by our support of a Japanese orphan, our 8-years old AKEMI of Kobe, Japan. The division LT. R.L.

Leading the 18 men in V-5 are ENS H. E. Lindberg, Administrative and Division Officer, and E. H. Hinesley, AMOS, the leading Chief Petty Officer. During flight operations the working day for V-5 stretches until after midnight, but when the men of V-5 are ashore, relaxation, tours, skin diving, boating, and parties are of prime importance and the words H205 air-borne time 1047,' or Hset the Lens for an A4C,' can be joyfully forgotten.

Radio, through its use of telegraph, teletype, telephone and complex crypto equip- ment, enables the BON HOMME RICHARD to send and receive important, hightly classified, operational traffic as well as routine administrative messages in a most expedi- tious manner--fast, reliable, and secure. The Signals Gang, employing flashing light, Haghoist, and semaphore, engages mainly in sending and receiving tactical messages between ships in company and working very closely with the OOD in the delicate manuevers inherent in task group steaming. 'On other ships, Communications is a part of the Opera- tions Department, but on the BONNY DICK, Comm functions on its own, and has done so, very well. The green C for excellence in communications bears eloquent testimony to this fact. ammuadcatdana epwzlfmeaz' LCDR S. P.

The dental department of the BONNIE DICK,' consists of three dental officers and eight dental technicians. This group of personnel provides the dental treatment for the crew as well as embarked air groups. In addition, emergency care is provided for the crews of the escorting ships while at sea. For the department the normal working day begins at 0715 when the working spaces are prepared for the patients. From 0800 to 0900 dental sick call is held. During this time patients are examined, necessary radio- graphs obtained, and appointments arranged. For patients with toothaches, or other emergencies, either definitive treatment is rendered at the time or else emergency treatment is provided and arrangements made to accomplish th dental treatment at a later date. After sick call the remainder of the day is devoted to patients with regular appointments. The treatment at these appointments includes the placement of restorations, making and delivery of full and partial dentures, bridges, crowns and also includes all types of surgical procedures required to render complete dental care for these patients. During this same period prosthetic technicians in the dental laboratory are performing the various steps in the fabrication of dentures and other dental appliances. The dental administrative office handles the paper work of the department. This includes ordering and keeping records of supplies used by the department, establishing and keeping up to date dental records of all personnel. The reports and forms that are required of the dental de- partment are made out and submitted by the dental administrative office. During the evenings the dental technicians see patients for oral prophylaxis and instruction in oral hygiene. Also during the evening the department is cleaned up after the working day and made ready for the next morning. After a period of instruction at the chair side, strikers help the technicians assist the dental officers and perform oral prophylaxis. When they have obtained the maximum from instruction aboard the ship the strikers are then sent to dental technician school. After sixteen weeks of instruction at the dental technician school the striker is gradu- ated as a dental technician. CDR C. J.

Q, 4f,f , Largest department aboard the BON HOMME RICHARD is the Engineering Department. It has more men and is responsible for more space and equipment than any other department. The primary and most important function of the Engineering Department is to keep the ship moving through the water. To do this, sea water is converted into pure feed water which is then converted into the high pressure steam that drives the mighty turbines which turn the shafts and propellers and provides the steam for the two catapults which launch CAG 19's airplanes. Main propulsion gives to the BON HOMME RICHARD the basis of its striking power-mobility. Secondary functions in The Engineering Department are multiple. It must provide for the comfort of the crew and sustain the operational ability of the ship. To do this it must provide the utility services comparable to a small city thus permitting the ship to operate at sea for long periods. Electrical power, for example, in addition to providing for military characteristics of the ship, provides lighting, ventilation, air conditioning, refrigeration, and food preparation facilities without which the ship could not sustain the large number of men required to operate the ship. The Engineering Department is responsible for the establishment, observation, and adherence of safety rules and regulations. Through Engineeringis damage control organization it provides for the maintenance of emergency equipment and of the ship's material conditions, the prevention of fire, damage control training, and the constant survey of the ship's water-tight integrity. One of the Engineering Department's never ending jobs is the upkeep and repair of the BON HOMME RICHARD. It must provide a shipis force capability to keep the hull and machinery in proper repair and ready for action. Repairs that cannot be done by Engineering must be organized and planned for the accomplishment by larger repair forces when the ship is in port. One of the Engineering Departmentis big jobs is the planning and the supervision of the repairs and alternations to the ship when she goes into the yard for her scheduled overhaul. lVithout the services provided by Engineering, the BON HOMME RICHARD would soon become a hulk in the water, the ship would cease to function as a unit, and the shipis primary purpose would be defeatedg the BON HOMME RICHARD would no longer be a deterrent to war and a symbol of the peace for which our country strives. Yet Engineering is part of the overall team, and it is this team work that keeps all phases of the BONNIE DICK in operation and provides her with the ability to carry out her mission. ngiaeezda e azzfmeaz' I E Q 3 CHIEF ENGINEER Lt.

Ramet E-A Division Material Officer- E-A DIVISION The Engineering Auxiliaries Division, known as E-A Division, has the responsibility to maintain and service all the auxiliary machinery through- out the ship. Because the machinery is located in outlying areas and in other divisional spaces the E-A Division must come in contact with, serve and satisfy every department on the ship. Responsibility for this task is organized into seven different units whose duties are as follows: STEAM HEAT furnishes heat throughout the ship and provides repairs for all scullery equipment, laundry, catapults, and miscellaneous gear. Through the efforts of this group the crew receives the comfort of hot water, clean laundry and habitable living spaces and working areas along with many other conveniences necessary for existance at sea and in port. HYDRAULICS unit maintains the aircraft and bomb elevators enabl- ing rapid transportation from below deck spaces to the flight deck making the ship ever ready as an Attack Carrier. For replacement of stores and fuel this group maintains the cranes and winches through which the transfer is effected. The steering engines maintained by this group permit the ship to maneuver or steer its straight course. AIR COMPRESSURS provide high pressure and low pressure air throughout the ship for a variety of services. OXYGEN-NITROGEN organization provides liquid and gaseous oxygen so pilots can Hy their missions at high altitudes. DIESEL Enginemen operate the ship's boats and maintain their engines. They also provide emergency electrical power and emergency fire fighting water in the event that there may be a loss to the main source of power. REFRIGERATION crew provides chilled water service, air condition- ing and refrigeration for the ship. MACHINE SHOP has highly skilled operators manufacturing spare parts to be used for emergency repair. Many times through the endeavors of these units the ship's propulsion and its aircraft's readiness were restored with only short delay keeping the carrier at its Fighting Best.

Boiler's Division on the BON HOMME RICHARD provides the steam which serves to propel our ship through the sea and to catapult our planes into the air. We are large working force of 3 Officers and 152 men, the largest division on board. From flight opera- tions to underway replenishment, rough weather or fair, we are always on the job. Eight boilers in four Iirerooms provide steam for the main engines, for the catapults, cooking, and for heating the ship. The largest share of E-B Division's personnel operate and maintain these firerooms. The Oil Gang keeps track of the shipis fresh water, boiler feed water and fuel oil. This involves maintain- ing continuous accurate records of over 125 tallks located throughout the ship. These records are vital in maintaining the ship's trim, usage accounts, and re- ceiving or delivering fuel. The Evaporator Gang produces feed water for the boilers and fresh water for the habitability of the crew. Fresh water is used in preparing our food, laundering our clothes, as drinking water and in the ship's showers. It is expended at the rate of about 25 gals per man per day averaging about 75,000 gallons a day. The boilers, too, use quite a bit of water, the amount varying with the sustained speed of the ship and the number of planes launched. The services necessary to maintin the divisionis material, compartments, training and administration are provided by the special detail. The efforts of theS6 men make up E-B Division, the largest, and we think one of the best divisions on board. We are the sailor's who provide steam power for peace.

We turn the screws. VVe make the ship move. We have four 37,500 horsepower turbines capable of propelling the ship at speeds greater than 30 knots, and four 1250 KWV turbo-generators to furnish light and power. The proper operation of these eight major items of machinery is dependant upon innumerable smaller installations and systems. There are reciprocating pumps to be maintained in almost constant operation. The failure of any of these pieces of equipment could impair our capability to maintain the high speeds necessary for flight operations. In addition to actually operating this machinery, we also have the equally great responsibility of maintenance and repair. Operation, maintenance, and repair-a continual process, so that each pilot who uses our flight deck can always be confident that we will maintain whatever speeds are necessary for his safe departure or arrival.

The Engineering Logroom yeoman are R Divi- sion men. They handle two of the shipis three legal records, the Engineering Log and the main engine Bell Sheets. They type and file most of the ship's yard work requests into smooth form, keep up the Current Ship's Maintenance Program, and type the weekly hull reports in addition to the Engineering Departmenfs routine reports and cor- respondence. E-R Division plays an important role in the Engineering Department by providing the BON HOMME RICHARD with the necessary margin of safety and readiness it constantly requires. E-R Division signifies REPAIR and can be best described as one of the arms of the Damage Control Assistant in carry- ing out his areas of responsibility in watertight integrity, fire prevention, hull maintenance, and the control and repair of all damage to the ship. The Division consists of four shops whose names im- medicately explain their functions-the metal shop, pipeshop, damage control shop, and the carpenter shop. Consequently, almost any repair ranging from welding the shipis structure to the replacement of flight deck planking can be accomplished. R Division furnishes the nucleus for the shipis repair lockers and maintains damage control equipment such as battle lanterns, iire hoses, CO2 bottles, watertight doors, hatches, pumps, and blowers. It is responsible for the man- ning and upkeep of the fog-foam stations, the continual watch in Damage Control Central, and the proper setting of the material condition of the ship.

X I P l N4 NIJ i , Ll -15 mmezy abutment' It is often said that supply is the lifeline to a fighting navy. In many ways the Gunnery Department is the backbone of the same navy. Gunnery's rigging is the backbone of all replenishments at sea, involving fuel, food, stores and ammunition. Gunneryis men are the backbone of watch teams on the bridge, in the lifeboat and on the special sea and anchor detail. Gunnery's men handle the missiles and bombs that are the backbone of our offensive and defensive might. Gunnery's boats and their crews are the back- bone that gets the liberty party ashore and back aboard. The Gmnery Department is composed of 25 officers and 440 enlisted men divided, primarily, into Ordnance and Deck seamanship sections. GDR JONES is at the helm with his assistants: LCDR WHITAKER. 1,31 LT., LGDR WELCH, Ordnance, LGDR VANNOY, Special Weapons, and LCDR FIELD, Guided Missiles. The ordnance section of Gunnery is best described by the eqpiipment involved and the work it does. The basic fire control system for the ships five inchers is two MK 37 directors, two MK 55 directors, one MK 6 target designator and two MK 1A com- puters. Air Defense drills are frequently held to practice coordination among these several systems so that if it ever becomes necessary the ship can maintain effective control of the air and defend against air attacks. The ordnance carried abroad is con- ventional ship and aviation ordnance supplemented by missiles. The divisions involved with ordnance on the ship are G-5, FOX, G- G and G-W. The deck seamanship section of Gunnery is best described by their duties and responsibilities. There are numerous replenish- ment stations capable of handling highline, housefall and burtonii rigs plus their modifications. There are a number of stations equipped to receive aviation gasoline and jet fuel and others which can either receive or deliver fuel oil. Anchoring, mooring or getting underway always involves the deck crew in masse. The divisions involved with deck seamanship are G-1, G-2, and G-3. The story of the BON HOMME RICHARD, and the Gunnery Dzpartment in particular, can only really come to life when told by the men who did the living, the work, and the longing during the mmths at sea and who enjoyed the much-needed R Sc R which seemed often too long in coming. In support of that story the Gunnery Department offers the following illustrated pages of men in action as a reminder to those who were here and as a testimonial to those who were not. Zaman?

From special evolutions to routine maintainance and upkeep the men of the Third can be seen apply- ing their trade of deck seamanship to keep the BONNIE DICK the operating ship that she is. Third Divisions' responsibilities encompass many and varyng tasks. From manning station nine, to handling mooring lines on the fantail, to operating and maintaining the shipis boats, you can always see the Third Division hard at work. And when the specialized jobs are done there is always more work for the Third to do in keeping the HBONN IE DICK shipshape. Weather decks are chipped and painted, boats checked and outfitted, compartments cleaned and polished, lines spliced and repaired. . .and many others. But once the working day is over the men have taken the opportunity to see the countries we have visited during our WesPac cruise. Many a story can be told of their adventures Hon the beach? The Boatswain's mate rate in the Navy is the oldest and most noble of all and the men of the Third Division uphold this tradition to the highest. ' 1 Ns V' R . al if . I 3 y.

Things were quiet this morning until the POD in note :H:3 revealed a ZI, less popularily known as a zone inspec- tion. Following the immediate panic and revielle, it was 1030, I called Benson in his olhce and told him what was up. He immediately dressed and met me in the wardroom. We decided to deploy our men in a dragnet of all our responsible precincts. The word was put out. . .paint the fantail, lube the A 8t B crane, inventory the paint locker, sand and varnish the P-boat, and get a new sea painter for the starboard whaleboat. Our PO's made their rounds and reported their findings. . .all secure in the THIRD. WVith our strategy planned and in operation, we lay in wait for CDR HSpic gl Span Bullmoose. Being tempted, he was snared and we were congratulated on an excellent job well done. And thus the Ensign was dipped to G-3. Benson took it well, but nearly drowned while I was awarded an unexpected Sea-bat. The job was typical and an every day chore.

Division Oflicer G-5 Division is a division of Gunner's Mates-a rate as old as the Navy itself. In the old days a Gunner,s Mate was concerned primarily with the ship's guns. On a modern aircraft carrier, however, he has other responsibilities. These other responsibilities tend to divide G-5 Division into two groups: the Battery and the Magazines. Battery personnel have the job of keeping our 5 f38 caliber guns in combat ready condition at all times. They are responsible for the upkeep, maintenance, and preservation of all our 5 f38 caliber guns, their associated equipments, and their sectors. i The Magazine personnel supply not only the ammunition for our guns, but all conventional ammunition, except missiles, for our fighter and bomber squadrons as well. They are responsible for the upkeep, preservation, and safety of the magazines that house this ammunition, and the upkeep, operation, and testing of the sprinkler systems that safeguard these magazines against Hre. They are also responsible for the ship's armory and the issuance and control of the small arms kept therein. G-5 Division also has a third group: the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Team. This team has the responsibility of render- ing safe and disposing of all armed, misfired, dud Hred, or otherwise dangerous ordnance which may accidentally C or by other meansl find its way aboard our ship.

Here, with the GG and GM combined, we have one large division which is capa- ble of constructing, maintaining, and transporting a complete line of aviation ordnance. To facilitate smooth operations of a division this large, the entire group is divided into five crews. These include the fight deck, hangar deck, bomb elevator, missile assembly, and missile testing crews. Being specialists at specific jobs, however, does not alter the fact that in most cases these men have the versatility of working in any of the division's capacities in the event of necessity. The assembly of aircraft munitions and the delivery of the finished product to the hangar or flight deck is a part of our daily program. Despite technicalities involved this program can never become careless routine, but requires each man to be constantly alert. In essence, GG Division is a group of men capable of working smoothly and efliciently together as a unit to provide the ultimate in aviation ordnance operations. ., f if , W I i 4 SW rf f fa wg W glxg, Vgfg, I1i'I13lnZyR3myvECll1iX. ioszgmlprlg, IX1EV..,FAAg Holmboe, J.D., AA, Lambert, J.W., A023 Ammons, R.D., AA, Hill, S,M,, AQCA: A ., , , . -, , risch, M.

The ,Medical Department boasts facilities comparable to those found in many small civilian hospitals ashore. To aid the Medical Ollicer in diagnosing and treating patients, several specialties exist within the department. A well-equipped medical laboratory performs blood chemistries and tests for bacteria. There is a modern X-Ray area, a pharmacy where drugs are dispensed and medications compounded, and an operating room. The latter is used mainly for minor and emergency surgery, although it is equipped to handle nearly any medical situation. In our treatment room, daily sick call is held and approximately 15,000 men are seen each year. There is also the ward where patients are kept for intensive care and observation and the Aviation Examining Room where all physicals are taken, eyes refracited and glasses dispensed. Logistic and administrative support is given by the Property and Accounting Office and Medical Record Office. The former procures stock and distributes various medical supplies. The latter maintains health records, submits periodic reports, and prepares routine correspondence. In addition to the above duties, our hospital corpsmen man underway replenishment stations in order to render any emergency medical care that might be necessary. When the 'BON HOMME RICHARD deployed, two additional Medical Ofiicers and six hospital corpsmen are attachedg They are responsible to the Medical Officer for the health and treatment of the officers and men of the embarked Air Group. ln addition to the routine medical treatment, the Air Group corpsmen maintain a watch on the flight deck during all air operations.

V , 'U f l q C Waadqazfan Navigation is the art or science of conducting a ship from one place to another. The problems of navigation are those of position, direction, and distance on the water. The primary function of the Navigation Department is the safe navigation of the ship. To accomplish this task, several methods are used. The oldest and most accurate is navigation by the stars and sun, called celestial navigation. Also there are electronic means of obtaining a position. The most widely known is radar and loran. The fathometer may be used with a fair degree of accuracy One of the many problems that arise in navigation is that of getting the ship into port on time. In order to accomplish this, we must know where the ship is at all times. There is a Quartermaster on watch continuously who determines the ship's position every half hour. It is the responsibility of the Navigation Department to plan the ship's track to avoid storms and in order to be able to accomplish this task, the Navigation Department must work closely with the Aerological Division. The Navigation Department is also charged with the duties of maintaining the correct time throughout the ship. To do this it is necessary to check approximately 125 clocks every other day. In summation, in the eyes of the American sailor, the Navigation Department's function to take the ship from one liberty port to the next liberty port and to get the sh'p back to San Diego at the earliest possible date. l 0 'Me Waacgatoz as CDR.

To this office is assigned the duties of typing, routing, and filing correspondence, reports and publi- cations such as the Schedule of Events, Daily Air Plan, Monthly Training Report, Operational Outgoing Messages and CRT Flight Schedule. The briefing of pilots is the primary function of Air Intelligence. In order to furnish the aviators with all the necessary information, AI collects, processes, and disseminates intelligence informations, maintains plots, liles, and an intelligence library, supplies maps, charts, and survival aids. AI keeps abreast of the ever-changing world situa- tion to put out the word at a moments notice. The weatherman may not be able to create the weather, but the ship's aerologist, backed by the men of the Weather Ofiice can guide the ship from lows to highs, from clouds to sun. By constant observation, analysis and dissemination of weather data we can find areas of good weather in which we can continue to operate. Front Row Cl-rD: .D.K. Schluter, F.J. Covill, R. W.

Omcer Omcer Carrier Air Traffic Control Center Thirty-One, manned by competent men of the Air Control- man rate, is a centralized agency responsible for the scheduling and status keeping of all carrier air operations and the safe, orderly, expeditious flow of air traffic under their control. During a typi- cal day in the CATCC, one can find Air Controlmen busy sending and receiving radio messages, plotting the ships position, and keeping information current on the lighted display boards to assist the CATCC Officer in keeping the Big Picture of all air operations. During various weather con- ditions, Air Controlmen in the CCA control room utilize multiple types of procedures to control aircraft to position where a safe landing can be effected by the pilot. A constant training program within the OC Division keeps CATCC 31 as one of the top CATCC teams in the Navy today. Front Row Cl-rj: C,C,, Erickson AC1g C.

They re- pair and maintain the search radars, radio transmitters and receivers, electron- ic navigational devices including the tacan, loran and fathometer plus all of their associated remote control and indi- cating units. A majority of the shipls departments use and operate these vari- ous equipments. OE Division consists of 38 electronics technicians and strikers. Approximately 9096 of these men are graduates of vari- ous navy electronics service schools. The division is headed by two limited duty officers and two chief petty officers whose combined naval service totals almost 60 years in the electronics field. liivm 1 ulletfs see 596077 And now for the second showing of Donald Duck ,ZX 4225.2 WE CAN Dom-TURNTH s s HANNDI-E IT!

CIC is divided into two sections, the Air Picture and the Surface Picture. From information gathered through radar, lookouts, and radio communications, the Radarmen and evalua- tors are able to keep an ever present picture of the BON HOMME RICHARDS Air Operations. Likewise, through surface radar, lookouts, and RXT communications with other surface units, the surface picture is maintained. Manned 24 hours a day, vital tactical information is disseminated throughout the ship to those who need to know. Though they seldom see the light of day, the Radarmen of OI Division keep a timely and accurate picture of our ship's surface and air operations.

These men clothe, feed and pay the men of our ship and operate what amounts to a department storev of tremendous wealth and complexity. In a single day, sales of spare parts and hardware amounts to 818,700 Sales of merchandise from our shipis stores are over a half-million dollars a year. Our daily food bill is over S3,000. If our laundry were a commercial enterprise it would be a Sl25,000 a year business. Every 15 days our paymaster pours 8150,- 000 into the economy. When one recognizes that this business enterprise is operated aboard what amounts to a moving island 3,000 miles from it's source of resupply, the complexity of the task can be better understood.

For this reason, the men of our division are constantly striving to maintain and improve the quality in food and food service which we believe is unmatched by any of our Pacific Fleet counterparts. In addition to food service, we are solely responsible for the daily cleaning and maintenance of some 165 staterooms, a full-time job in itself. Though the nature of our work prevents us from ever enjoying holiday routine, we perform our duties with the knowledge that we are playing an important role on this floating city. The BONNIE DICK is proud of her record as one of the most active ships in the Fleet and we of S-5 share this pride since we contribute materially to the moral and physical well being of her officers. cfadadcwz ENS T.

The mission of the attack aircraft of Carrier Air Group NINE- TEEN is to conduct offensive air to surface attack operations. The mission of its fighter aircraft is to provide defense against air attack, intercepting and destroying enemy aircraft in order to establish air superiority. Carrier Air Group NINETEEN was commissioned 15 August 1943, and flew from USS LEXINGTON in the South Pacific during World War II. For its efforts and achievements during this period, Carrier Air Group NINETEEN received the Presidential Unit Citation, and 395 other medals were awarded its members. During the Korean War, Car- rier Air Group NINETEEN made two deployments aboard USS PRINCETON, with many CVG-19 pilots being awarded Distinguished Flying Crosses, Air Medals, and Commendation medals with combat device. Since the Korean War, Carrier Air Group NINETEEN has been deploying at regular intervals to WestPac. This is the fourth cruise that Carrier Air Group NINETEEN has made aboard USS BON HOMME RICHARD.

As their name suggests, they guard along the exotic Far-Eastern reaches of Japan, Formosa, H0l'1g Kfmgs and thi? Philippines. The men of Attack Squadron One Nine Two know this part of the world. They know it as a strange, lnffigllilig world of beauty and fun. Nevertheless they know it best as a battlefield, an arena of armed strength, 'where they proudly Hy their versatile Skyhawks in the sight of those who plot to bind freedom forever. . Many of these men have in'i years past fought in these very waters. Today they all sail them as guardians of a place hard won but fragile.

Scheduled for decommissioning upon return to NAS Miramar, the Ghostriders leave behind them an illustrious past which few shall ever equal. Not only has VF-193 received three EHS, but four CNO aviation safety awards in the past six years, a feat never before accomplished by any operational squadron. Providing all-weather protection to the fleet, day or night, is a big order, and the Ghostriders have always proven themselves more than equal to the chal- lange. Here are the officers and men of fighting 193, the best in the west. 1 1948-COMMISSIONED AT NAS ALAMEDA 1951HPRESIDENTIAL UNIT CITATION 1952HPRESIDENTIAL UNIT CITATION 1952MPRESIDENTIAL UNIT CITATION 1954-BATTLE EXCELLENCE PENNANT 1956-CNO AVIATION SAFETY AWARD 1958-CNO AVIATION SAFETY AWARD A 1958MFIRST OPERATIONAL UNIT TO DESTROY A ,,,, , .W I A DRONE WITH THE sPARRow MISSILE I 1 a I 1959-CNO AVIATION SAFETY AWARD 1960-BATTLE EXCELLENCE PENNANT I 1962-FIRST OPERATIONAL UNIT TO CONDUCT A NIGHT MISSILE SHOOT WITH THE SIDEWINDER MISSILE ONLY TEN AIRCRAFT. 1962-CNO AVIATION SAFETX AWARD 1962-BATTLE EXCELLENCE PENNANT LCDR W.

The squadron first earned laurels in the battles for the Bonin Islands, Iwo Jima, Okinawa, the Philippines and Japan flying TBM's. In Korea, operating AD's, the squadron was responsible for the destruction of the strategic Hwachon Dam using aerial torpedoes after high altitude strategic bombers had failed. This marked the only use of aerial torpedoes since the famous torpedo attacks of World War II and gave the squadron its name. James Micheneris book, 'cBridges of To Ko Ri, immortalized the raids made by Attack Squadron 195 Dambusters during the Battle of Carlson's Canyon. Attack Squadron 195's mission is offensive. From its carrier base, the squadron's A4D-2N Skyhawk is capa- ble of delivering conventional or nuclear weapons to a target hundreds of miles deep in any enemyis territory. The Skyhz1wk,' is the world's smallest nuclear bomber. During the periods of shorebasing in the United States, the squadron conducts intensive training of pilots both in fiight and on the ground. To sharpen their ability to strike a given enemy target, pilots practice for pinpoint accuracy in seven different types of bombing for both conventional and nuclear weapons plus rocketry and strafing. Navigation at low and high altitude through bad weather and over rough terrain is a major training effort. Tactics and instrument fblindj flying are also important to an attack pilot since he must not be prevented from completing his mission by enemy air opposition or bad weather. Shorebasing also provides opportunities for continuing the schooling of maintenance men. As our weapons be- come more sophisticated and intricate, our knowledge must keep pace. Todayis jet aircraft, like the Skyhawk, require much more exacting care and attention by maintenance personnel than the ICSS Complicated W0I'ld War II aircraft. Attack Squardron 195 is proud to be on the BON HOMME RICHARD who, with her Air GTOUPQ 15 an Integral part of the mighty Seventh Fleet, our nations, first line of defense in the western Pacific. 235 i i anuivwv ' ' ' Wm, . .

Flying the versatile AD-6f7 Skyraider from the deck of the USS BON HOMME RICHARD on the last three western Pacific cruises the squadron is not only considered the most operational prop attack squadron in both fleets, but was awarded the Chief of Naval Operations in both fleets for fiscal year 1962. After being tested in the WEAPTRAEX, STRIKEX, and the operational readiness inspection in Hawaii, VA-196 took its place on the line with the Seventh Fleet, the free world's primary sea going striking force in the westem Pacific.

Q 9 . 7 Detachment ECHO is one of numerous units of Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron ELEVEN QVAW-llj, home-based at NAS North Island, San Diego, California. Com- mallded by Captain H. E. VITA, USN, VAW-11 regularly dePl0YS WF -2 Tracer', and AD-5W Skyraiderw teams to WESTPAC aboard CVA and CVS type carriers, respectively. Officer-in-Charge of Detachment ECHO, VAW-11,5 finest, is Lieutenant Commander D. FINN, USNR. VAW-11's primary mission is airborne early warning, but DCtaChment ECHO also has performed a multitude of other ta5kS, including sub-hunting, search and rescue and weather fCC0nnaissance. With the 1962-63 cruise only half over De- tachment ECHO crews had already located one Russian sub- malille, one downed pilot and one typhoon. Star performer in these feats was the Grumman-built, eyes-of-the-fieeti' alr- craft, the WF-2, or rather the E-IB, as the Willy Fudd is now officially designated. The airborne crew of the Willy Fudd consists of a plane commander, co-pilot, an officer airborne intercept controller and an enlisted avionics technician who doubles as infiight maintenance troubleshooter and radar search operator. A fifth position in the aircraft can be occupied as the situation may dictate. Detachment ECHO is composed of 12 officers feight pilots and four controllersj and 38 enlisted men. All personnel are proud to have been an integral part of Carrier Air Group NINETEEN and to have served aboard the BON HOMME RICHARD. 4 241' W7 'f,', f V ff f M , Wwwff f 5 , 5 W wwf fa 'V .

GRUMAN X HUP-3 HELICOPTER STANDS BY FOR FIRST LAUNCH OF THE DAY. 'C 'C Fourteen years after commisioning, HU-1 is the largest and most active Helicopter Squadron in the Navy. A unit usually consists of four pilots, approximately ten crewmen and two helicopters. These crewmen fulfill the maintenance and crewman requirements. By July 1, 1962, a total of 879 men had been rescued via HU-1 helicopters. This figure represents actual rescues and not the normal rearward evacuation of wounded, or mere transportation of personnel. Many of these rescues were conducted while the enemy fired at point blank range. The courage of both pilots and crewmen under these conditions can best be realized by noting the decorations that have been bestowed. One man was awarded the Congressional Me:lal of Honor-the nation's highest award. Three men have earned the nation's second highest award-The Navy Cross. Five men wear the Silver Star, two the Legion of Merit, thirty- eight the Commendation Ribbon. The squadron itself has been awarded the Presidential Unit Citation for Extraordinary heroism in action against enemy aggressor forces in Korea from July 50 to 53? Today, the major peacetime mission of HU-1 is to rescue carrier pilots who have either bailed out or ditched their disabled aircraft at sea. A normal rescue takes just a few minutes. The helicopter locates the downed flyer and lifts him from the water with a hydraulic hoist. Then he is swiftly flown back to his ship for any medical attention he might need. Besides making rescues, HU-1 does an invaluable service to the fleet by transferring mail, vital tools and parts, as well as personnel between ships underway at sea. , if ' '-4?

However, many a day in San Diego starts at the YMCA and from there whatever hits the fancy of a sailor comes next. THE DAY Many sailors work their way up Broadway lounging here and there or speculating on a tattoo. Often the morning is spent sightsee- ing and might lead to the Bell of Friendship on the tip of Shelter Island. When the day gets warmer the beaches call and the sailor goes to tan, swim, or watch the girls. As evening falls, the luster of the amusement park in Pacihc Beach or the Navy Relief Carnival lures the fun seeker. Even later the sailor, growing weary, seeks a more comfortable and relaxing bit of entertainment to finish up his well rounded day. Finally the sailor seeks his boat to take him home and get a few hours sleep before being roused out the next morning. Thus ends this day in San Diego but it is replayed over and over again at many tcmpos and in many different ways. MH!! in S Diego .lewd minute waz! an Me M6945 dec!

Although Subic lacks some of the excitement of other ports, it does provide some of the most beauti- ful native scenery of any country we visit. The Philip- pines are green the year round and rich in American- Philippine tradition which has strong roots dating from WW II. It was just south of Subic where Gen. Douglas McArthur with American and Philipino soldiers made his famous stand on the Bataan Peninsula. eve 242 Below-The Philippine National Taxi.

Yet here was a city rich in history, tradition, and culture. Here, too, was the home of many of the United States' war dead from World WVar II. Bombed out buildings could still be seen although Westernization was predom- inent in many instances. Yet, the Memorial Cemetary lives beyond the cities on a plush green hill of the countryside in remembrance of many men who had died on that hill and many others which had fallen elsewhere in the Pacific.

We Thought Weid Never Get Here Saving our money and keeping our hopes high over shadowed the many schedule changes that preceeded our long awaited journey to fabulous Hong Kong, the British Crown Colony located in the shadows of the Chinese Communist nation to the west. Hong Kong had much to offer in culture, night life, and bargains in all types of stores. From Jimmy's Kitchen to the floating restaurants of the Aberdeen fishing village, BONNIE DICK sailors probed everywhere to take home ever- lasting memories. lNIary Su's girls sought to paint our ship in barter for our food leftovers while we were busy converting our yen to green- backs to Hong Kong Dollars in order to fill the shopping lists that were increased with every letter from home. The Emmigrant Village was filled to overflowing as we expected, while to many peopleis surprise fresh milk abounded in the large dairy farms that spotted the island's landscape. Houseboat in Aberdeen Perhaps the biggest shopping took place in the tailor shops all over Hong Kong and neighboring Kowloon. Suits, shirts, topcoats, and jackets were in demand by practically all members of the crew. When we finally sailed from Hong Kong, many and fond memories went with us and we looked back to the city which we hoped we could return to at some later date for a visit.

MAZZOCCO P. 0. IN CHARGE: AKINS, J. A., CS2 BON HOMME RICHARD's radio station has been broadcasting throughout the ship for a number of years. Thirty five radio broadcast outlets installed by the Bureau of ships afford a maximum of audience coverage with a minimum of hinderance to this man-of-war's more obvious missions. . KBHR, as the station is known aboard ship, is made up of voluntary enlisted personnel dedicated to bring their shipmates and officers the enjoyable and enlightening sounds of music and news, which otherwise might not be heard while underway. Our goal this year has been to afford audience partici- pation in a manner that would allow every listener an opportunity to enjoy much of the desirable elements of a professional stateside radio station. A number of the disc jockeys have circulated poll sheets to discover which songs are enjoyed most and to form a local top tune list. You have all seen these sheets placed in the shop, on coke and candy machines, and near the ship's stores, awaiting your requests. Mailers and blank tapes have been sent stateside requesting the very latest hits. Even now many of these hits havenit reached the Far East, but you are well familiar with them. A hearty thanks to: BILL ROSE,-KJLM-FM, FRANK THOMPSON-KOGO, LEE CLARK-KGB, KSDO, KCBQ, and KOWN, who recorded these late tunes for us. VVe hope you've enjoyed Music Stateside. One of the most recent undertakings at KBKHR are provisions for each man aboard ship to send his wife or sweetheart a list of available tunes to make dedications on KBHR via the mail. Some of the extra- curricular work we hope you have enjoyed are the record- ings of various occasions, sport spectaculars, etc, which actually took place during many a mariners working hour. The playbacks were broadcast over the RBO,s at more convenient times. Now, lets take a moment to meet the men who have sincerely enjoyed bringing you music, variety, and news during WESTPAC 1962.
