OPERATIONS We worked with carriers , In her operations with the Seventh Fleet, the BRAINE performed in many different capacities. We plane guarded the carriers Lexington, Kearsarge, and Philip- pine Sea. We observed the firing of a Regulus missile on a small island off Okinawa. The BRAINE was re- sponsible in part for the successful 2 ' 2 day holddown of a submarine, the first time it had been done in his- tory. We refueled and replenished more times than the deck force cares to remember. Our gunnery exercises, in particular the torpedo shoot, were outstanding and several gunnery E ' s resulted. We put in many long hours at sea and the work was hard, but our ship was commended for a job well done many times, and the state of training and combat readiness of the BRAINE were at their peak. The BRAINE coining alongside for another highline transfer. Refueling was almost a daily operation 21

CWIWA KAOHSIUMG- KAOHSIUNG From 6 August to 2 September the BRAINE spent a blistering three weeks on Taiwan Patrol. Half of this time we patrolled a few miles off the coast of Red China observing the shipping through the straits. The rest of the period was spent in Kaohsiung, a dirty, dismal and smelly port in the southwest coast of the Chinese Na- tionalist island stronghold of Taiwan. The heat was stifling, and the liberty poor. We suffered through an administrative inspection with a high good score. Some went swimming, all the divisions played intramural softball, and the bars and slots attracted many customers. Everyone was glad to leave when our relief showed up . . . two days late! A native Dowrntown! Primitive methods are still used 23
