SUN ,EQ A ? , Qf1 Z A Z it-L V ,k,V L. . V f.i, Qi, Ky On the sunny morning of 26 January, USS EDSON got underway from the mole in Long Beach to begin her fifth Westpac cruise. One month later, after stops in Pearl Harbor, Yokosuka, and Subic Bay, she arrived on station in the Tonkin Gulf to put to use the intensive training and preparation accumulated in long yard and refresher training periods. Off North Vietnam she was the Navy's second ship to participate in Operation Sea Dragon, interdicting southward bound Communist logistics craft and making gunnery strikes against military targets ashore. It was here also that EDSON received her first counterbattery fire from Communist coastal defense sights, and proved that she could return it accurately. In the South, Operations Beacon Hill Il, Beau Charger, and Hickory saw EDSON supporting U.S. Marines and units of the South Vietnamese Army as they fought their way inland just below the DMZ. Around the clock she harassed the enemy with area fire, betrayed their nightly movements with illumination rounds, and thwarted their attacks with barrages of pin point accuracy. On 27 May, while firing emergency missions against mortar positions on Cap Lay, the ship came under heavy fire and received a hit on her forward mast. With the aid of the destroyers TAYLOR and BIGELOW, EDSON saturated the enemy sights with a hail of five inch shells, and maneuvered to seaward amid exploding rounds. Ten officers andmen hadbeenwounded, three seriously enough to be evacuated to Da Nang, where they were expertly treated. Between periods of operation on the line, EDSON found time to make liberty calls at various Far Eastern ports. In Hong Kong she was Station Ship, the United States Navy's ranking representative to the exotic Crown Colony. From Sasebo and Yokosuka members of the ship's company toured inland to such well known cities as Tokyo and Hiroshima, bought gifts, and made new friends. - Returning to the Tonkin Gulf as the flagship of Captain H. B. McClure, USN, Commander Destroyer Squadron Thirteen, EDSON joined HMAS HOBART for a final period of Sea Dragon operations. With a combined total of five long range five inch fifty-four caliber mounts, the small but powerful U.S.- Australian task unit roamed the coast striking the enemy's supply lines at will. It was with a tinge of regret that these two ships parted company as EDSON headed for Yokosuka and home. The cruise had been a success, and EDSON'S contribution to the Nation's efforts in Vietnam substantial. On the homeward passage the ship's officers and men assembled to pay tribute to those among them who had done the most to make the cruise what it had been. V USN From the Commanding Officer: This cruise has been very significant to all of us concerned - not only those who were physically a part of the crew but to the wives, mothers, and sweethearts back home :Who were with us in spirit and gave us the support We needed to do our jobs. During this cruise we have actively supported our troops ashore and were among the first destroyers to have carried the war effectively and efficiently to the home- land of the enemy in North Viet Nam,firing more than four times as much ammuni- tion in the process than we did last cruise. We have been taken under heavy fire by enemy guns on several occasions and were even hit once - fortunately Without suffer- ing serious damage or injury. To the men of EDSON I would repeat here that the job you did on this cruise is one to be proud of. You have fought well for your country and have earned for your- selves the right to hold your heads high along with your fathers and grandfathers who carried our great nation through her other hours of need. ' To our loved ones at home I would simply like to say Thanks for the moral support you gave us while We were away. lknow that your task was really more difficult than oursg particularly the burden of interminable waiting and wondering about our welfare. May God continue to be with us all and with our great country. CDR J. J. VERMILYA CoMMAND1Nc OFFICER W'F -' r' 13 LCDR C. J. STUART ,IR USN EXECUTIVE UFFICER From the Executive Officer: , The past six months represent a period which all of us will long remember as both exciting and important. During this time each of you has experienced the mo- ments of greatness when free men place their lives on the line to fight for the rights of others. That EDSON performed an important role in an outstanding manner has been well establishedg that this was possible only because of her incomparable crew is equally well established. Keep with you always the knowledge of the accomplish- ments you have shared in EDSON and may this knowledge lead you to success in all future endeavors fy USN During the 1967 WESTPAC cruise, I was fortunate to have been on board USS EDSON for two and one half months. I say fortunate because USS EDSON is one of the outstand' h' ' ing s ips in the Navy. Any Navy man should be proud to serve on board this ship. She has an extremely well-trained crew of officers and men- she is a fighting ship with a can do spirit she meets ever chal- - Y lenge and continuously strives to do any job assigned better than it has ever been done before. I am particularly proud to have been on board a ship like this in combat- I that s the real test! That's where you must have perfection in performance by both men and equipment. And as we all know, our modern equipment requires real professionals to keep it functioning properly and continuously. USS EDSON proved herself to be outstanding in all these respects My sincere thanks for all the assistance that the officers and men provided to me and my staff during our tenure on board. My best wishes to all hands for continued success in all future endeavors. CAPT. H. B.

FIRST DIVISIO The Boatswain Mate rate is one of the few true nautical rates left in the Navy. Being the deck seamen of EDSON, We take great pride in making her ship- shape by waging an endless battle against rust and dirt, and keeping her bright and shiny. When the ship needs fuel and pro- visions at sea, we are willing to unrep at any hour with the least possible amount of delay or confusion. The majority of our battle stations are either in the ready service rooms or the hot, uncomfortable magazines. By now we have all realized what totally un- glamorous jobs those Were, but when the word was passed to keep that ammo coming , it came. And after a mission we had the equally tedious task of policing empty brass. Nobody really minded though since we all knew We were play- ing an active part in our fightingteam. Even though long hours are spent Working, We are not above having alittle fun. Taking advantage of our WesPaC liberty hours, We returned to our home port with many fond memories of our ports of call overseas.We eventook time out to show our shipmates how to play softball at the ship's party in Subic Bay. 18 Rn.

These words, the standard verbal routine for transmission checks in the dawning hours , mark the be- ginning of another day for both the Gunner's Mates and Firecontrolmen. From this hour on, throughout the day, Second Division becomes anever ceasing beehive of activity. No task is too great yet none too small for the men of Second Divisiong all are accomplished with smoothness and efficiency. The Gunner's Mates, busy with pre- fire checks, bore erosion readings,mag- azine inspections and overall main- tenance and. preservation of the ship's five guns, compose the larger portion of the division. Running computer checks, radar adjustments, and numerous daily tests necessary for proper positioning of the guns during firing occupy the work- ing hours of the smaller portion, the Gun Fire Control Technicians. Working together, these two rates create the ship's effective gunnery system. Our first two and last two weeks on station in Vietnam put the total of our efforts to the supreme test. Thanking God, we emerged scratched only slightly, and at the same time had retaliated powerfully by firing many more rounds in that short period than had been fired the entire previous cruise. A deserving well done to all. Right, elevate, depress. MARK, MARK, MARK. And how many tedious late hours have been spent hearing those words during battery alignment?

For most of the others however, it was a new ex- perienceg thousands of miles of ocean, new and different cities, Asahi beer, oriental Women, and gunnery strikes against North Vietnam. Although the surround- ings were different, WestP ac brought little change from the daily EastPac routine for the Sonarmen and Torpedomen. The Division's greatest re- spo nsibility was keeping EDSON'S sub-seeking and killing equipment in peak condition. Other various and non-related duties were also assigned. Gen- eral quarters found Sonarmen filling four key bridge positions, the navigation detail included as many AS Division personnel as Quartermasters. While on the line the Torpedomen did a fine job on the after steering and fifty caliber machine gun Watch: es. AS Division played as hard as they Worked. They proved by their exceptionally clean record that a man need not get into trouble to have a good time. Next cruise, if you want to see how the real steamers Work and play, follow AS Division.

OI DIVISION Combat Information Center, lo- cated aft of the bridge is aRadarman's home at sea. lt is here that all in- formation concerning EDSON is col- lected, displayed, evaluated, and dis- seminated. These four functions are the Radarman's primary job on EDSON. Each man does not concern himself with all four aspects, but rather he does hisiparticular job so that his piece of information fits into the overall picture, be it naval gun fire support, plane guard, an ASW search, coastal patrol, or just inde- pendent steaming. During EDSON'S 1967 Westpac deployment, the Radar gang was in- volved in many different activities and performed them all well. CIC played a vital role in NGFS in South Vietnam and during Operation Sea Dragon off the coast of North Vietnam. During these firing missions, Combat had the responsibility of fixing the position of the ship in relation to the target in order to get our projectiles on target. At the same time Combat would be controlling aircraft, search- ing for hostile surface contacts and enemy radar transmissions. The Radarmen at sea are hard workers with long hours, but ask any one of them and he'll tell you that this is when he most enjoys his work. 1' 's ..,- A , AA., I w 1 1 1 Y I 1 1 v 1 I V 1 1 I I I 9 J Aff 'vi Z 'MQ I N 959 'Ns .331 -ku F G l ., f, f f ,. xff -'fxfxf 4 , f ,. lx X ,ff X KMA X N f 4w,'f.f,,x,zQfQ ' V K X, 4 '51 N Ol All Pl 1 4 1 l I ' , J 1 1 L, i 2 5 567- f pid I i , N w li ' fbi' , , 2 W . may ' gwxs ff ? 6 me , f 1:56522 if E, 1 wi ' is i .Q 1, :f fv 4 'DQ Rf? 7.655 bf ,Q ACM' h w f l iff' 2: ,. ...-,,,, , Left to right, lst row: RMC Sinclair, YN1 Smith, RM3 Martin, RM2 Quinn, QM1 Gross, SN Rothwell, SM3 Lopez, SM2 Ramey, HM1 McDonald, SM2 Condon, Left to right, 2nd row: PNC Hutt, HMC Thompson, RMSN Russo, RM3 Mercer, QMSN Robles, SN Bucklin, SM1 Kirkelie, QM3 Schwartz, RMSN LacKamp, YN3 Doyle, RM3 Loyd.

QSL that ZKYJ' These are common expres- sions heard frequently in OCC divisional working spaces. Composed of Radiomen Signalmen, Quartermasters, Corpsmen, Yeomen and Postal Clerks, OC Division is the most diversified on the ship. Even in this diversification the men can always be counted on to work together and to do the best job possible. The necessity of quick, reliable and secure communications can not be over- estimated. Many times men can be found working overtime and during liberty hours to keep the gear going and main- tain the overall system efficiency. The results of these efforts are well demon- strated by the outstanding record of the division during this cruise. 9 Quartermasters are on the bridge constantly getting fixes and locating the ship's position at any one given time. Signalmen spend an eternity on the sig- nal bridge sending and receiving tactic al, as well as administrative messages. It is said that due to the long hours spent at the typewriter, the ship's Yeomen and Radiomen have noticeably shorter fin- gers. Our Corpsmen are always prepared to bandage a cut, treat any malady that might appear, or set a broken leg. The Postal Clerks are everyones friendwhen mail call is piped and the usual crowd gathers around the Post Office. This cruise everyone put forththeir best effort to make this the best that EDSON has made. m,:..,p-14 5 'som .. -'A 1,,,, r -,.. ,N WH. -vw, aw . 7, 0 H N ,-f.'.f,f1-15411.25 ytfif: 9 J f M 42 -1-Q U?

B DIVISIO There emerges from the deep dark pits of the forward and after firerooms every evening around 1600 several dark monster-like figures clad in green uni- forms. As these figures move rapidly down the passageways everyone steps aside for fear of being touched and contaminated. At last these fireroom monsters reach the after washroom, shed their green uniforms and several minutes later emerge from the showers looking very much like normal human beings. These green clad monsters, some forty strong, are the 'steamin demons' of B Division. B Division is responsible for the upkeep of four 1200 psi B and W boilers, associated pumps and auxiliary machinery located in the two firerooms. B Division performs planned mainte- nance, unplanned maintenanmae, routine repairs, emergency repairs, and time permitting, liberty. Much of this work must be performed at night, making 18 to 24 hour days not uncommon. B Division works hard and plays hard. They cuss the boilers during the working hours, and after liberty call congregate at the local pub to laugh and make jokes over a job well done and how dirty their division officer got while in- specting firesides. When all is said and done, the division is a real team ready to answer the cries from above, Where the h--- is all that smoke coming from? The forward and after stack, of course. v C Q?

From main control comes the reply, We are checking it now, Sir. The men of M Division work and live in the forward Qmain controlj and after engine rooms. Here they operate and maintain the main turbines which propel EDSON, the four ship's service generators which supply her electrical power, the two evaporators which pro- duce fresh water, as well as associated pumps and auxiliary equipment. Aided by the skill and leadership of Senior Chief Petty Officer Pappy Light and Chief Petty Officer Curran, the Machin- ists Mates have enabled EDSON to steam the long miles in WestPac, to make attacks on the enemy's shores, to retire swiftly from hostile gudire, and, with only slight delay, to return to our native shore. With spaces that remain the show- places of the Engineering Department and machinery which just won't quit, M Division has contributed much to EDSON'S 1967 Westpac cruise.

R DIVISION R Division is composed of men of many different talents , including Ship- fitters, Electricians, E nginemen, Damage Controlmen, Machinery Re- pairmen, Machinists Mates, and IC Electricians. Division personnel are the core of the ship's cracker-jack repair parties, an indispensible part of the general quarters team. All are ready and willing at any time of the day or night to perform emergency re- pairs or combat damage aboard ship. Routine every day jobs include maintenance and repair of electrical, gyro compass and hull systems, air conditioning and refrigeration ma- chinery, steering gear, piping, and damage control equipment.ln addition 9 the division cheerfully assists other divisions with projects that are be- yond their own capability. One such project involved making temporary, but sturdy repairs to our forward mast which had been hit by fire from coastal batteries during shore bom- bardment operations off the DMZ. The professional performance of R Divi- sion personnel allowed EDSON to re- turn safely to Subic Bay to undergo more extensive and permanent re- pairs. Working hard during the day and playing hard at night, R Division's function can best be summed up by the motto on the machine shop door lf we can't fix it, nobody can. 4 MQW W A fzaesgmfff 1 f 4: f , 5 5 ' z E, il 5, 3 5 v 1 E 2 J if E. 4 ig I le 1 KZ, li af 1 if ? gl Il .- I 1 I 1 a v Q I , 1 . fi if ' i , , X V 1 ., K 5- .

Shortly afterward, she was in- volved in a pilot search and rescue mission. While operating far up the Gulf of Tonkin, EDSON spent several Weeks participating in Operation Sea Dragon interdicting Communist supply routes and knocking out coastal defense sites along the North Vietnamese coast. Oper- ations Beacon Hill II, Beau Charger, and Hickory saw EDSON firing endless rounds in support of U. S. Marines en- gaged in amphibious assaults on the beaches and fierce fighting inland near the Demilitarized Zone separating North and South Vietnam. EDSON flew her battle ensign proudly and experienced some of her first hours accurately returning and suppressing fre- quent North Vietnamese counter battery. lf success is to be determined in rounds fired at the enemy, We can look back on our 1967 cruise with much pride for EDSON literally wore her gun barrels smooth thus necessitating replacement in Subic. UNREPS Due to the increased Vietnam effort, operations in the Western Pacific have been greatly increased. On the average, every third day found EDSON spending long hours during both daylight and darkness refueling, rearming, and receiving stores from vari- ous Seventh Fleet units. owl xx X Y X X XXX 27 MAY During NGFS near the DMZ, EDSGN received a direct hit on her forward mast. Ten officers and men received wounds, three of whom were trans- ferred by- helo to Da N ang for immediate treatment. EDSGN, having partially lost her radar and radio communications, slowly steamed to Subic for three weeks of repairs. lf? Si E' fgij r 55 I, . 5 3 Q 5. X ....... 3 i 1 W . 3 sf If lf YA.. KXNZNQS PURTS OF CALL Enroute to WestPac, EDSON stopped briefly in Hawaii where the crew saw such famous places as Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach. Numerous interesting tours were arranged when EDSON visited Yokosuka and Sasebo in Japan. It was the first time many had seen the Tokyo Tower, been entertained by Geisha girls, or ex- perienced a traditional Oriental meal. During our many stops in Subic, some of the crew flew to Manila. The highlight of the cruise though proved to be two glorious weeks in the British Crown Colony of Hong Kong. , . 5 ,. l ' AA V . jg.,..,,., V .

There was just plain relaxing on the fantail, the ship's band, Saturday night bingo, movie oall, sheet shooting on the fan- tail, the fishing Contest, sunbathing, the ship's party at Grande Island in Subio, and of course, a few hours of well deserved sleep. we , X Q N 5 Q Q s 2.
