The transfer of 60- 100,000 gallons of fuel between two ships separated by a dis- tance of just over 100 yards is no small matter. When the transfer involves not fuel but crew members, the matter becomes even more serious. During the Mediterranean cruise, BOWED transferred over 1.5 million gallons of fuel (and one sailor) without any spills, serious injuries or damage to equipment. Left, Bowen and USS Hewes (TF- 1078) conduct a highline transfer of an Egg McNuffln for training dur- ing the Atlantic transit in June. A dangerous business Underway replenishments are a dangerous business under the best of conditions. When the two ships are alongside each other, they are connected by a strong cable, called a span wire, which supports the fuel hose. Precise piloting is nec- essary to maintain the sepa- ration between the two ships at precisely the correct dis- tance, so that the cable does not part. Almost all crew members are assigned to an unrep station, whether on the bridge, in combat, in an engi- neering space, or on a top- side station, to assist in the transfer. f» Above, line handlers and phone talkers man station five. Left, LTJQ Mark Weber, CDR Robbins, Yni Tom Boer and LT Rich Fitzpatrick carefully monitor the distance between Bowen, the oiler and USS Saratoga (CV-60) during a refueling. Bowenlife 35
