EISENHOWER (CVN 69), named after the thirty-fourth President of the United States, was authorized by Congress in fiscal year 1970. Five years later, IKE was christened and launched at 11:11 a.m. on 11 October 1975 by Mrs. Mamie Doud Eisenhower, the ship ' s sponsor and widow of the President. On 18 October 1977, IKE became a United States Ship, achieving special international status under international law by her commissioning to active service. if£ ' s descriptive facts and figures alone only begin to convey part of her enormity. One of the largest warships in the world, IKE displaces 95,000 tons fully loaded and has a 4.5 acre (252 by 1,092 feet) flight deck to support as many as 100 embarked aircraft. Her two nuclear reactors can provide energy for nearly 13 years of operations without refueling, the equivalent of steaming nearly 1,000,000 miles, at speeds in excess of 30 knots. Because IKE does not require conven- tional fuel for propulsion, the additional space is used for both added aircraft fuel and ordnance storage. IKE can carry 70% more aviation ammunition, and has berthing and other service facilities to support 50% more airwing personnel than non-nuclear carriers. IKE ' s four main engines turn 21 feet, 22.000 pound, five bladed brass screws. For steerage, K£has two rudders, each weighing 60,000 pounds and measuring 29 by 22 feet. She has four aircraft elevators, 3,880 square feet each, and four steam catapults. Her two anchors each weigh 60,000 pounds and arc attached to 1,082 feet of chain having a breaking strength of 2,500,000 pounds. The chains are made up of 855 links, weighing 365 pounds each, for a total weight of 308,000 pounds each. Anchors and chains, taken together, weigh 1,472,000 pounds. IKE can accommodate a crew of 6,287 and carry provisions for 90 days at sea. During underway replenishments, IKE is capable of loading 400,000 pounds of supplies an hour. Her evaporators can distill up to 100,000 gallons of fresh water every 24 hours. Deployment to the MED Having received battle efficiency awards in several departments and categories, IKE ' s fourth extended de- ployment began on 27 April 1983 after five months of preparations. During the seven month service with the U.S. SIXTH FLEET in the Mediterran- ean Sea, the flexibil ity of IKE and her almost 6,000 man crew was repeatedly demonstrated. IKE maintained an almost continuous schedule of tactical operations and exercises to provide the national muscle necessary to back wide-ranging U.S. commitments. Together with other ships of the U.S. SIXTH FLEET and NATO Task Force 502, K£ participated in four major fleet exercises, set an unprecedented record of 93 continuous days at sea conducting operations in the Eastern Mediterran- 5 A i ean, and joined forces with our allies as part of the Multi-National Peacekeeping force off the coast of Lebanon. IKE ' s last 134 days of deployment, which included an extension and only four days in port, was tension filled as the ship first operated off the coast of Libya during the Chad crisis then responded to the threat to the Peace- keeping Forces in Beirut, Lebanon. Flying more than 40 photographic reconnaissance missions over Lebanon, the air wing successfully identified the locations of artillery batteries firing on Lebanese, other Multi-National Force elements, and our own Marine contin- gent. This tactical information was relayed to the U.S. ships already on station within three miles of the coast for naval gunfire support contributing significantly to the silencing of the enemy artillery batteries. IKE ' s air crews and planes were continually visible throughout the period, thunder- ing near and over Lebanese skies providing a source of strength for our Marines and a tangible demonstration of U.S. resolve to maintain the peace to those intent on its disruption. IKE was finally relieved by USS INDEPENDENCE on 20 November and began the Atlantic transit back to Norfolk for arrival on 2 December 1983. During this record-setting deployment. ifE launched more than 11,000 sorties from its flight deck. Carrier Air Wing SEVEN flew more than 40,000 hours and the ship steamed a distance equivalent to two circumnavigations of the Earth. Numbers, however, cannot fully convey the sense of mission accomplishment felt toward the deployment of IKE ' s crew. As veterans of previous deploy- ments have learned, IKE ' s participation with the SIXTH FLEET was a reminder that the business of maintaining world peace does not come easy, but is worth the effort. The Captain Captain E. W. Clexton, Jr., a native of Arlington, Virginia, enlisted in tlie Navy in January, 1955, at NARTU Anacostia, D.C. In June, 1956, he entered the U.S. Naval Academy and graduated with the class of 1960.

VADM James A. Lyons, Commander, SECOND Fleet, came aboard K£on 22 April to present Captain Clexton with the ' TOP SHIP ' award for the exercise. Joining the Captain in the Five Star Room were (L to R) CDR Rezeau, CDR Burch, the Executive Officer, CAPT Ritt, CDR Ramsdell, CDR Luecke, and IKE ' s Command Master Chief, ABCM Nichols. IKE hosted several groups of Midshipmen, both from the United States Naval Academy and NROTC units around the country. Midshipmen normally have two cruises during their four years of college: the first to show them what life as an enlisted man is like and the second to give them junior division officer training. Captain Clexton presents Dennis Beal and Shane Higgins with $500.00 scholarship checks from the wives clubs. 15 IKE Day at Busch Gardens Hie 0lh Countrp, lO iUiamsfturs, Vimm w H I PN| 1 (%h9 1 n Ju B ' a nlnl mM HZ KkM Bi H ' 1 u ' ■■III The Anheuser-Busch Company, owner and operator of Busch Gardens, The Old Country, set aside 16 April 1983 as IKE Day at the Williamsburg, Virginia, resort. Hundreds of IKE crewmen, their families and friends crowded into the park despite the chilly temperatures to enjoy the rides, enjoy the company of their shipmates, take in all the attractions, and sample l Anheuser-Busch ' s most famous product: I Budweiser! Built to resemble miniature I versions of the European countries of J West Germany, France, England, and ' f Italy, Busch Gardens served as an jj introduction to only Italy for those who f were about to make the deployment, as 1} IKE ' s French port call never happened. - mm i Battle Efficiency Although IKE did not take her fourth consecutive overall Battle E, four departments did receive awards: Operations Department received the fourth consecutive Green E ; IKE ' s Damage Control Red DC was also the 4th consecutive such award; the Black Deck Seamanship insignia received for Deck Navigation was the 2nd consecutive such award; and Medical Department received the Blue M for the 3rd time in four years. VADM Kilciine and RADM Flatley presented the awards at ceremonies held in IKE ' s hangar bay 2 on 13 April 1983. Shown is IKE transiting the Elizabeth River leaving the Norfolk Naval Shipyard.

IKE held its command picnic on 9 April 1983 despite the adverse weather. Hundreds of crewmen and their families came out to enjoy the company, food, music, games, and yes . . . even the weather! m w 31 Refresher Training REFTRA Refresher training, conducted in the Guantanamo Bay Operations Area, began IKE ' s work ups to ORE and deployment by getting back to basics: how to prevent damage to IKE, how to minimize damage once it occurs and return IKE to fully mission capable status as soon as possible, and how to care for those wounded by an accident or while trying to control damage. To the uninitiated, REFTRA seems like an end in itself: the countless general quarters, exercises, graded Yoke settings ... all working toward ' the final grade. ' But to those who have been thru REFTRA before, it is far more: a time to learn lessons that, if they ever have to be used on real damage, will save lives and maybe IKE itself. .32 33 34 4 The training team from Fleet Training Group, GITMO (shown below), became familiar fixtures on IKE during REFTRA as damage control skills were honed from excellent to outstanding. Appearing every evening on WIKE-TV to give a summary of the day ' s training, FTG became an integral part of the IKE CVW-? team. Even when they left IKE, the training they supervised remained as a reminder of the time well spent at GITMO. Exercise Distant Drum V-.. IKE, and other U.S. and NATO forces, participated in Exercise Distant Drum from May 16-26, 1983. Below, IKE and ITS SAGITTARIO (F 568) steam side by side while the French carrier, CLEMENCEA. steams about 150 nautical miles from IKE. During the exercise, French F-8 ' s trapped and launched from IKE as a demonstration of joint operability ... a demonstration that did not go unnoticed by Russian observers.

Khadafy Threatens To Sink IKE ' Soon after IKE ' s departure from Livorno, Italy, the ship received orders to immediately take up station in the Gulf of Sidra. off the coast of Libya. A long standing protagonist of the United States, Col. Khadafy, was backing rebels trying to overthrow the government of neighboring Chad. The eyes of the world watched as K£ s presence provided a bothersome diversion to the north while the unpredictable dictator was pushing his will on a lesser equipped neighbor to his south. It was during the station-keeping in the Gulf of Sidra that Col. Khadafy made a threat to sink IKE if we ventured inside the 300 mile limit claimed by Libya. Asserting U.S. freedom of navigation in international waters, IKE and CVW-7 aircraft freely navigated in the disputed waters and airspace keeping a very close watch on Libya ' s responses. IKE crewmen recalled that two years earlier, F-14 Tomcat fighters from NIMITZ shot down two Libyan jets that had fired upon the American planes. This time, however, no shots were fired. When Libyan aircraft finally ventured out to confirm IKE ' s location they were swiftly met by CVW-7 ' s F-14 fighters. The confrontation was brief indeed as the Libyan MIG-23 ' s turned tail and flew back to their airfields as soon as they were intercepted by the F-14 ' s without ever coming within sight of IKE. IKE ' s presence alone proved to be a formidable deterrent to the aggressive actions of the Libyan leader. Attack Attack . . . Kill Kill . . . Sink Sink! from the New York Post, Friday.

Three U.S. advisers from Fori Bliss, Tex- as, and 30 shoulder-fired missiles arrived Wednesday to help President HIssene Habre ' s men In the fight with Libyan-backed rebels. At the same lime, two US, radar spy planes flew to Egypt ahead of schedule to monitor the Libyan air force ' s role in the desert war. Pentagon sources said. The planes will Join aruiual U.S. -Egyptian maneu- vers later this week. The Norfolk-based Elsenhower, carrying a crew of nearly 6,000 men and 95 aircraft. Is midway In Its six-month Mediterranean cruise that began when It left Norfolk with seven other ships In late April. Earlier this week, an encounter between two F-M Tomcats from the Elsenhower and two Sovlet-bullt MIG-2JS from Libya ended with no shots being fired. The Libyan aircraft, which had flown out to meet the U.S. planes, new b«ck toward land when the F-14s maneu- vered behind them. The Navy has declined to say which El- senhower aircraft were Involved. They would have been aircraft either fnjm the Ghos- trlders of Fighter Squadron 142 or the Puk- ing Dogs from Fighter Squadron M3, both besed at Oceana Naval Air Station. EjKxunterlng Libyan aircraft while U.S. carriers cruise the Central Mediterranean Is IXH new for Navy aviators. The most serious challenge came In August 1981 when two Liby- an SU-22S flr at and were shot down by two F-148 from the carrier Nlmitz. Navy officials said Libyan aircraft had been Intercepted 45 times that week. Sut equent Intercepts have been record- ed by aircraft of other carriers, the Navy officials have said. The Navy considers its carrier-based air wings the most pnxected In the world. The Elsenhower, like all U.S. carriers, uses high- flying E2-C Hawkeye aircraft to keep a watch from above. — Please turn lo page A4, col. 3 Mediterranean Sea Libya claims it owns all of the I 300-mile-wide Gulf of Si dra I , U.S. aircraft carrier Eisenfiower and battle group in ttie Mediterranean NIGER Libya (ay It will sink th« Nortolk-baMd carrier Elsenhower, atxive, If tt crosses Into ttie Gulf of SIdra.

We feel very slrongiy that there is a continent-wide pattern of Libyan destabl- lizatlon, Libyan terrorist activities, Liby- an aggression, the official said Wednesday. We are In the middle of a small-scale, but very Important con- nict. The Reagan administration has sent 110 million In arms arj other emergency military aid to support Chadlan govenv ment forces who are battling Libyan- supported rebels. In addl ' ion, II was learned late Wednesday that two highly sophisticated U.S. surveillance planes Have arrived In Egypt ahead of schedule, apparently lo observe Libyan warplane activity. The senior official said Libyan air- craft have flown attacks on behalf of the rebels In the Faya-Largeau oasis area of northern Chad for the past several days. The Khadafy government has denied its aircraft are Involved. But the official, who spoke on condi- tion he not be named, accused Khadafy of engaging in an elaborate campaign of financial, logistic and other kinds of Libyan support for rebels, who. In fact, have been created by Libya. If that kind of activity passes without response ... It will feed upon Itself and It will pose a threat to the stability and security of a rather large number of additional states, the official said. One could just look at the map and see Sudan, Tunisia, Egypt, Niger and the list goes on, he added He said while the Libyan actions are chiefly a problem for African nations, a responae by the International community Is also need- ed.

IKE ' s participation was only one facet of BRIGHT STAR which spread from the Mediterranean across the northwest quarter of Africa. IKE began the exercise by intercepting two Air Force B-52 ' s at a distance of over 1,000 miles as ' enemy ' fighters. Teaming up with the Air Force later, IKE hosted several flag officers and tanked CVW-7 planes from their KC-lO ' s. Whether it was formation steaming with units of the Egyptian Navy (shown here), hosting Egyptian officials, flying against and with Egyptian Air Force MIGs, or hosting the Secretary of the Navy, IKE ' s omnipre- sent control of the sea and air set the stage for the exercise. Secretary of the Navy, the Honorable John F. Lehman, Jr., flew aboard IKE on 21 August for a two day visit that included a ' first ' for the Secretary, highlining from a carrier to an escort (IKE to MAHAN), and participation as the B N on a practice bombing of an Egyptian range. While addressing the crew over the IMC, Secretary Lehman remarked, I ' ve found, since I ' ve been in this office, that IKE has a way of setting the standards. I have been so impressed to find, in each of my visits, that I get an insight into what the best trends in the Navy are. ms m r.i.?c- ' JJ ir M 5SS Exercise BRIGHT STAR S ' — -n ,. .

Launching and recovering high perfor- mance aircraft is what the carrier does that sets it apart from all other ships . . . how well it is done is what sets IKE apart from all other carriers. The range of activity spans absolute boredom and unmatched exhilaration. Flight deck activity is a study in contrasts, at one moment convincing the observer that, to parody the recruiting phrase, It ' s more than an adventure, IT ' S A JOBI and the very next moment that the job IS the adventurel It is the most dangerous work-place in the world, but the work done there can be among the most gratifying experiences of a Navy career.

Awaiting his return are the flight deck crew, squadron and intermediate level maintenancemen, and intelligence de- briefers anxious to take advantage of every piece of information that can be gleaned from his sortie.

IKE received millions of gallons of JP-5 jet fuel during the deployment by this method and sent and received thousands of pallets and tri-wall cardboard containers. Getting the supplies on board was only half the process, however, since the supplies required stowing below decks. Hundreds of IKE and CVW-7 crewmen manned hand-to-hand daisy chains, elevator s, and conveyors from the flight deck and hanger deck down nine decks to the storage areas on the 5th deck. 1 , f ■■ ' ' « IKE Po J ' h, ' mmmm Naples Naples, Italy, IKE ' s ' homeport ' in the MED, saw very little of IKE during this deployment only being in port in early May, again in July for a week including the Fourth of July, and in late October for four days. For many aboard IKE, Naples was the first glimpse of Europe: a hectic yet intriguing city filled with people who, at best seemed to speak only broken English, if any at all, and who were always going somewhere at extremely high speeds using no rulcs-of-the-road that bore any resemblance to the rules back home. In addition to the AFSOUTH and NSA facilities, Bella Napoli was the ' stcpping-off point for tours of Rome, Capri, and Sorrento (shown on the following pages). Still, it was a place to unwind from the pace of operations in an area of the world where real enemies were just off the starboard beam. t I t I I I ii II 11 •1 f R 65 MM Naples • July 4, 1983 66  . , xt% V ■ • 4 . ■ Mi ► B MM Rome ' f PI J r -T- .-.. ■L mi  M ■mmiA .LjI fl ? 1 WK «oi« aociHf • T   usoNi« Mos c oc«« T ,. mo ffi- ' iL ti ' •2 ■ i v •46 KE arrived at Livorno.

Arriving fi ' ojy S days at sea working allies, IKE put into Athegs, Greece, on June 18, 1983, for a ten day port visit, the last nuclear powered warship to visit that port prior to the Greek government ' s ban on such visits. Although IKE had been briefed that there might be some trouble ashore with Communist Party protests, the Fleet Landing was closed only once due to a political protest march. Spending much of their time at the ruins or in nearby Giyfada. the crew had one of the more outstanding port visits of the deploy- ment while in Athens. Tours were available for not only the Greek ruins, but the Greek Isles as well. Hundreds of IKE CVW-7 crewmen participated in one and two day tours of the Isles. y, i « |p i ijf a From Athens, IKE put to sea for only the three days it took to return to Naples on July 1. | %W m - ipii - ■• -•, -■ •« ■tr ' -r w Jt [gfl .m ■ « , - «l . t fAmaLjA Ik « ' !• K - ' - n . r.- ' ' ? -Jc « ' i L., ' i .

Sunday, 17 April 1983, was IKE ' s annual Sports Banquet at the Scope Convention Center in downtown Norfolk. It was special for a number of reasons. The guest of honor was retired Ohio State football coach. Woody Hayes, the winningest college football coach alive today and former CO of two World War II Navy ships. Many of the Atlantic Fleet ' s winningest teams and individual competitors, all IKE crew- men, were on hand to receive the recognition their superior achievements rated. Captain Clexton was present, not only to honor IKE ' s athletes, and to hear Coach Hayes, but to receive the Naval Base Com- mander, Naval Air Force U.S. Atlan- tic Fleet Sports Achievement Award designating IKE the most athletics oriented ship within AIRLANT NAVAL BASE. Coach Hayes remained in Norfolk overnight to sail with IKE the following day as Capt Clexton ' s guest on a dependent ' s day cruise. 98 True to the image of IKE being the best, two crewmembers are world ranked powerlifters. MM3 Doug Borden is ranked 6th in the world and is the Al l-Navy, All-Service Champion in his weight class. MM3 Farber is the All-Navy Champion in his weight class and is going for his second consecutive The Facility Winning teams and well conditioned athletes begin with superior gym facilities. IKE ' s gym is the best in the fleet. Equipped with the latest in weight and workout equipment, the gym stays busy 24 hours a day inport and at sea. 100 I Football IKE ' s Varsity Football team was this year ' s Portsmouth Naval Base Champion, Navy Virginia State Champion, and runner-up for the Navy East Coast League. The team racked up a 16-2 record under Coach LTOg) Dick Duffett before falling to HS-1 during the final game held at PHIBASE. Little Creek during November, 1982. i Basketball 102 The Varsity Basketball team was every bit as successful as the football team, taking the Naval Base Norfolk Cham- pionship under Petty Officer Holiey ' s coaching. Setting a blistering 26-4 pace, the team was finally eliminated by USS VIRGINIA for the Virginia State Navy Tournament Championship in triple overtime by a score of 69-68. The MED Deployment highlight for the team was their defeat of SIXTHFLT ' s flagship team, 84-81. The victory was even more sweet since they were the twice- in-a-row All Navy Champions. 103 Karate Boxing 104 Team sports, both varsity and intramur- al aside, general physical conditioning of IKE ' s crew was far ahead of the Navy ' s recent effort to ' get in shape. ' With activities running the entire gamut of sport from karate, jogging, and pumping iron, to simple calisthenics, weight loss groups, and general muscle ' tone ' improvement activity, fE offered something athletic to every man aboard. Even though the conditions were not always ideal (such as the obstacles encountered during a quick walk through a crowded hangar bay, much less a fast run), IKE ' s people persevered and attained individual and team goals in the best IKE tradition. Workouts IKE Olympics 105 Steel Beach Having a picnic on the beach is a little tough when there ' s no land in sight and hasn ' t been any in sight for over 90 jaysl But that ' s not to say it, can ' t one Mediterranean Swim Call What began as Now SWIM CALL, ' SWIM CALL, ended as SharlTs llTthe water . . .

Careful coordination with CTF-60 and escorting ships kept the swimmers (and sharks) the only objects near IKEdm ' mg the much needed break from the tensions of Multi-National Force sup- port. n I Spiritual Leadership . . . be gins at the top . . . , - sr- f X, People leading people to accomplish an enormous task is what IKE ' s about today, and has always been; the ship is only the framework within which the process happens. Given the incredible mission of IKE, to maintain peace wherever in the world she sails, and the adversaries which confront IKE when- ever she sails, more than human knowledge, guidance, and strength is needed for the men of IKE to succeed in accomplishing their mission. That is why spiritual leadership is essential aboard IKE. Providing the foundation for this spiritual leadership Is the province of IKE ' s Chaplains. Ordained ministers or priests of their personal faiths, they minister to both the secular and religious needs of IKE ' s crew providing counseling on a broad range of problems, referrals to other members of the IKE personnel assistance team when the problem needs additional expertise, as well as Information on their own religious beliefs. They arc ever present sources of courage, faith, and moral Integrity. They arc there when good times are shared, and when tragedy strikes, aboard or at home. 110 When IKE is anchored in a port where human need for help exists, they organize IKE ' s response to that need providing, at the same time, the seniority to cut red tape and organiza- tional know-how to get the job done. They are the shoulder to lean on, the gentle nudge to do what is right, and the swift but loving kick in the pants, depending on the individual ' s personal need for one, the other, or alll IKE was blessed with three such Chaplains during the MED ' 83 deploy- ment: Chaplain Evans, Father Passero.

Father Passero is a Roman Catholic Jesuit priest, and Chaplain Heinke is a minister ordained by the General Baptist Conference. Joining IKE ' s resident chaplains. Rabbi Resnicoff paid IKE two visits during our MED deployment to conduct Jewish worship services aboard IKE and her escorts. IKE ' s chaplains served not only the men of IKE and CVW-7. but extended their care to all units close enough to accommodate a ' Holy Helo. ' i At right, military members and civilians worship together aboard IKE at a joint services Easter Sunrise Service. Following the service, breakfast was served in the other end of hangar bay two. Below, IKE was at sea conducting Fleet Carrier Qualifications and hosting a TIGER cruise during the National Prayer Breakfast. Again, hangar bay two provided the setting for an overflow crowd. One nation under God . . . The Jewish Services Pennant flies above the national Ensign as Rabbi Resnicoff conducts Sabbath services aboard IKE; one of the few times this pennant has ever flown from a nuclear aircraft carrier. 113 Mission to Antigua ' . -« - - -, - r ? , • ' • - ■ r- flrr ' « « •-- j- if- ' - ., . r ' i?

Coordinating the project with the local Seabee battalion and the U.S. Attache, Chaplain Heinke organized two projects in Antigua. The first was at the Home for the Destitute and the second at the island ' s Mental Hospital, both of which were just outside St. John ' s. IKE ' s volunteers did everything from minor structural repair, general cleanup, and painting to simply talking with the local population (many of whom had never seen an American before) and handing out the ubiquitous ' IKE button. ' Completing their project, the volunteers were personally thanked by the Antiguan Minister of Health and the U.S. Attache.

Arriving as early as 0500, the guests were served breakfast, lunch, and supper, treated to movies in hangar bay three, a wide range of static displays in hangar bay one, entertained by a CVW-7 airshow and weapons exercise, and given a walking tour of IKE that ranged from the 4th deck Print Shop to the 09 level hart House, and from frame K aft to rame 249. _t was a busy day that didn ' t end until jT? fsfflllgll after dark, but which offered those o had never been to sea (much less lea aboard a nuclear aircraft carrier) e chance to gain a greater under- standing and appreciation for the tasks and challenges their sponsors meet IKE is deployed. ]22 m CTF-60 The staff of the Commander, Task Force 60, provides operational, intelligence and administrative support for the Sixth Fleet ' s Battle Force Commander.

Ingram 167 OA Division operates IKE ' S Me- teorology Oceanography (METRO) office. Acrographer ' s mates assigned to the division are responsible for taking, encoding and transmit- ting upper air, surface and sub surface environmen- tal observations. Additionally observations are used in preparing and issuing surface aviation weather forecasts, high seas wind warnings, sonar ran- ge acoustic performance forecasts and forecasts for assorted electronic emitters receiver performance based on environmental effects. Environmental measurements are derived by means of highly trained surface weather observers using the experienced eye, sound judgement, and the latest electronic sensors. Radiosones, which are balloonborne radio transmitters, relay back to the ship a verical profile, consisting of temperature, humidity and pressure measurements of the upper atmosphere. The ocean is measured by a bathythermograph probe or XBT, which is released from the IKE ' S fantail to send back a continuous reading of temperature vs depth. This data is important in forecasting detection range of various battle group sonars against submarines. With ail locally gathered environmental data, real time satellite imagery, fleet weather radio, and facsimile broadcasts received from the Navy ' s weather centers, the ship ' s meteorologist and his forecasting staff are able to provide IKE, the Battle Group, Embarked Staff and IKE ' s Airwing with timely and accurate environmental forecasts and estimates of battle force sensor capability.

They keep track of the status of all carrier air operations and control all airborne aircraft. CATCC is part of the Air Operations branch of the Operations Department, furnishing such pertinent information and assistance to pilots as prelaunch briefs, warning and restricted airspace information, flight planning service, and relaying flight movement messages via ship-to-shorc communications. The Carrier Controlled Approach (CCA) branch is like a radar approach control facility ashore, but at the more hectic pace IKE maintains in action. They safely. orderly and expeditiously move air traffic, especially when instrument conditions exist (during bad weather and at night). OC division, aided by the Automatic Carrier Landing System directs flights to and from the carrier ensuring the aircraft maintain adequate lateral and vertical separation at all times. The third branch of OC division is the Air Terminal Office. ATO safely moves passengers, mail, and cargo on and off IKE by both helo and COD aircraft. They brief passengers before flights on flight deck precautions and survival equipment use in emergency situations such as ditching at sea and emergency exit stations. CDR R. Lang LCDR T. Lee LT J.

Wood The primary mission of the Weapons Department is to provide conventional and special ordnance in large quantities to the flight deck. The department is tasked with the responsibility for safe ordnance on-load, magazine stowage, strikeup, buildup, and rapid, efficient ordnance delivery to the flight deck. Once on the flight deck, airwing ordnance personnel take over the responsibility for loading ordnance on their aircraft. After the mission is flown and airwing personnel download unex- pended ordnance, that ordnance is returned to the custody of the Weapons Department for safe restowagc. The Weapons Department is responsible for the operation of the Basic Point Defense Missile System. This is a close-in missile system effective against low-flying aircraft and surface targets.

During the 5000 hours of IKE ' s MED deployment, M Division ' s 100 men have maintained and operated four main engines, four ship service turbine generators, and all fresh water production equipment. Their four work centers transformed the nuclear generated steam into useful energy to drive IKE ' s four 21 foot diameter screws, logging over 50,000 nautical miles. The four ship ' s service turbines generators produced over 65,000,000,000 watt-hours of electrical power; enough power to supply 7,000 average American homes with electricity for a year. Their four distilling units have produced over 70,000,000 gallons of fresh water. Aside from the hangarbays, M Division ' s main machinery rooms are the largest enclosed spaces on IKE.

Wright 265 - Repair Division is a large, multi-faceted organization dedicated to maintaining IKE ' S material condition of readiness especially in the area of Damage Control. It is named exclusively by Hull Maintenance Technicians, designated strikers and non-designated firemen, and it is the prime reservoir of fire fighting and ship repair talent on board the IKE. Under the auspices of the Damage Control Assistant, the divisions many work centers turn out quality, locally constructed products and affect repairs to installed equipment and structures. It is comprised of the following shop: DAMAGE C0NTR0L C02 SHOP, SHEETMETAL SHOP, PIPE SHOP, CARPENTER SHOP, LOCKSMITH SHOP, AQUEOUS FILM FORMING FOAM SHOP and NUCLEAR WELD SHOP. Repair Division maintains systems which effect every man on board the IKE. From the Main Drainage system keeping the bilges dry, to the Counter Measure Washdown AFFF system provid- ing foam to fight flight deck fires, to the CHT system providing service to every ship ' s head, these systems are vital to provide for safety and comfort of the crew. Additionally, the Nucleus Fire Party is manned almost exclusively by Hull Technicians, and it provides the kernel around which shipboard fire fighting is built during normal steaming. In line with its damage control responsibilities, the division also provides the ship ' s Fire Marshall and the ship ' s primary Gas Free Engineer services. 1 LCDR L. Lewandowski LT T. Grim CW02 R.

Downer Supply Officer IKE ' s Supply Department, the largest department aboard, success- fully supported the crew in all logistical areas from underway replenishments to IKEDONALDS in the few ports-of-call visited this MED deployment. During the entire deployment, the officers and men of the Supply Department met and conquered every challenge, serving meals to the crew 20 hours out of each day, receiving more than a million tons of cargo, selling in excess of three million dollars in merchandise through the ship ' s store, paying out more than four million dollars in cash and provid- ing the spare parts to keep the ship running and aircraft of CVW-7 flying. ' Control, orders, tracks, and keeps up-to-the-minute status on more than 183,000 items of inventory, valued in excess of $140,670,000. This requires a close working relationship with local merchants in procuring goods and services not found in the Navy Supply System. Another major task is accounting for over $22,500,000 of operating funds allocated yearly to IKE and Carrier Air Wing SEVEN. S-1 not only initiates, tracks, and follows-up on critically needed repair parts for IKE, it also is a mini-supply center for other ships in the battle group providing urgently needed parts from ready stock.

Stone ,.-■ .Mitii ., — •, jb,: . ; ■ VA-65 is CVW-7 ' s all weather medium attack squadron and IKE ' s major long- range ' punch ' in power projection and war-at-sea capability. Attack Squadron SIXTY-FIVE ' S 38 officers and 250 enlisted personnel maintain and fly 15 Grumman A-6 INTRUDERS. Ten of the INTRUDERS are A-6E TRAM bombers and five are KA-6D tankers. The A-6E TRAM is capable of delivering up to 15,000 pounds of conventional bombs and a wide range of other ordnance including laser guided bombs, the STANDARD ARM missile, and the HARPOON missile, the Navy ' s newest operational stand off weapon. The HARPOON gives CVW-7 and K£ the ability to strike enemy ships from a range which minimizes the exposure of aircraft and ship to attack. The KA-6D tankers fulfill the critical mission of providing airborne refueling, especially important to CVW-7 ' s fighters whose mission is protection of the carrier. VA-65 was commissioned in May, 1945, and is one of the oldest continuously active attack squadrons in the Navy. Homeported at NAS Oceana, VA-65 takes their namesake TIGERS from the Bengal tiger, the most powerful and feared predator of the animal kingdom. 409 1 .M • [■ ' B . c i CDR W. Chewing CDR R.

Among these are the around- the-world-cruise of Nuclear Task Group I on board USS ENTERPRISE (CVN-65) and the maiden cruise of the USS DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER (C N-69). The Waldos made several combat cruises to the waters off North Vietnam and the current cruise is their twenty-first deployment to the Medi- terranean. The squadron flies the A-7E Corsair II which is recognized as the best Light Attack Weapons Platform flying today. The Corsair ' s inertial navigation system and computer controlled weapon system provide the A-7E with the most accurate air to surface weapon delivery capability available.

Their primary mission is to conduct electronic reconnaissance mis- sions, using EA-38 SKYWARRIOR aircraft, in support of the Commander, Battle Force Sixth Fleet, VO-2 Bravo in an i airujing, providinftrhitelli Performance of VQ-2 DET BRAVO in support of EAST MED operations was phenomenal in every respect. Ranger 17 and crews conducted extensive, real world operational flights that were essential to the Carrier Battle Group and the United Nations Multi-National Force. The main- taincrs were superb, enthusiastic, innovative, and truly professional! They routinely launched on incredi- bly short notice, and completed scheduled and unscheduled maintenance in record times. DET BRAVO ' s Ranger 17 flew over 400 hours in a seventy-day period while sustaining an unparalled fully-missioncapable rate. VQ-2 DET BRAVO has established itself as a full and valued member of the CTF Six Zero USS Dwight D. Eisenhower Carrier Air Wing Seven team, and has justifiably earned the respect of all. Well done!

Air Antisubmarine Squadron THIRTY ONE gained the notable distinction of being the Atlantic Fleet ' s first VS squadron when it attained its anti- submarine designation one year after commissioning at NAS Atlantic City, New Jersey, in April 1948. Presently homeported at Cecil Field, Florida, the TOPCATS of VS-31 have conducted flight operations from the decks of 18 aircraft carriers before joining IKE as part of CVW-7. VS-31 contributed to IKE ' $ air power capability by utilizing the S-3A Viking to search large areas of the ocean for detection, localization and, if necessary, destruction of enemy submarines. Equipped with the latest antisubmarine (ASW) sensors, the S-3A receives, analyzes and displays tactical ASW information on multi- purpose digital computer displays for interpretation by its crew of four. During this deployment the TOPCATS sur- passed both eleven years and 46.000 hours of accident-free flying. ■ f? IN ■ f yr :-rif i -iNt .: fe ' XH: ? ■ ' l?£ ' ' , CDR John P.

Besides providing ASW protec- tion, the Night Dippers perform additional duties as IKE ' s Search and Rescue element, provide surface ship surveillance and targeting, and provide logistics and utility support to the IKE battle group by airlifting cargo, person- nel and mail to and from U. S. Navy facilities ashore as well as between our escort ships during underway periods. Operationally attached to Carrier Air Wing SEVEN, the Night Dippers have made every major deployment aboard IKE since her commissioning and are truly a part of the outstanding IKE CVW-J team. HS-5 earned their reputation and nickname The Night Dippers for being the Navy ' s first all-weather around-the-clock ASW cap- able helicopter squadron in the mid-1950 ' s. The Night Dippers of today, homeported in Jacksonville, Florida, remain true to their predeces- sors and provide IKE with the best antisubmarine protection in the fleet. n I CDR Richard T.

Two days were spent moving Admiral TUTTLE, his staff and all of the turnover equipment and material to INDY. IKE personnel conducting face-to-face turnovers went to INDY for their briefings while CVW-7 personnel stayed aboard IKE and were met by their counterparts. Throughout the ship, the ubiquitous IKE buttons were replaced by INDY buttons . . . but not for long! 516 517 Mooring Homecoming IKE returned to Norfolk on December 2, 1983, passing over the first line at 0755 to complete a seven month deployment that was begun on April 27. DuringlKE ' s deployment more than 1.1,000 sorties were launched adding up to more than 40,000 hours of flight time. IKE steamed a distance equal to two circufnnao4 ' gati[ons of the world.
