LT EVERSOLE was posthu- mously awarded the Navy Cross for extraordinary heroism during the action of the Battle of Midway. Following commissioning, the EVERSOLE was out- fitted at the U.S. Naval Shipyard, Bremerton, Washington, and underwent shakedown and train- ing in the Southern California operating area- Upon reporting to the fleet, she was assigned to Destroyer Division 171 and served normal rotated tours between the Western Pacific and the United States between December 1946 and June 1950. During this latter month, the EVERSOLE was assigned to Destroyer Division 31 for a cruise in Asiatic and Pacific coastal waters. At the outbreak of hostilities in Korea, the EVERSOLE moved immediately into enemy waters with the famed Task Force 77. She was employed screening carriers from June 1950, at the start of the conflict until February 1951, when she returned to the United States for overhaul. In her second: cruise during the Korean War the EVERSOLE par-- ticipated in the bombardment of Hungnam, Wonsan, and other points along the East Coast of Korea. After a third successful tour oflduty in the Korean War, and upon cessation of hostilities, the EVERSOLE resumed peace time operations, participating in blockade and escort work, training and experimental exercises, and as a screening unit in carrier task force operations. On May 3, 1960, EVERSOLE left Long Beach, California, for permanent assignment with the SEVENTH Fleet in the Western Pacific. This was the tenth time since 1950 that the ship had de- ployed for duty in the Far East. Since her arrival in Yokosuka, Japan on May 27, 1960, the ship has taken part in patrol, carrier screening, anti-submarine, and 'amphibious exercises. As part of the SEVENTH Fleet, EVERSOLE's mission is to protect the peace and freedom of the peoples of Asia. Since September 23, 1960, EVERSOLE has been under the command of Commander James W. SHORT, U.S. Navy. Her Executive Officer is Lieu- tenant Commander Robert R. BROUILLETTE, U.S. Navy. Pertinent Dates of Present Cruise 27 Aug. to 5 Sept. Departed long Beach May 3, 1960.

Her modern equipment gives the ship the capability to detect and, if necessary destroy air, surface, and underwater targets.. Since her commissioning, she has steamed well over half a million miles, and has visited all major ports in the Orient. She has her own facilities to provide medical care, berthing, messing, and laundry for a crew of over 300 men. Her two steam turbo-generators are capable of providing enough electricity for a city of 10,000 people. ln addition, her refrigeration and store room capacity can provide for the crew for over 60 days. At economical speeds, she can steam for over 6,000 miles without refueling. RIN s4v z, is, 21 Commander James W. SHORT, U. S.

EVERSOLE TDD-7891 cfo Fleet Post Office Som Frcmcisco, Corlifomicr Yokosuka, Japan OPEN LETTER TO THE CREW- We have spent many months together in WESTPAC during this cruise. Some months packed with action while others bordered on boredom. But, whatever our thoughts and actions, the mission of the EVERSOLE remained the same, a deterrent to enemy aggression in either Northeast or Southeast Asia, a permanent member of the ever- ready SEVENTH FLEET. Being permanently deployed for two years caused hardships that can be balanced only by the knowledge of what we have accom- plished, and this cruise book will show you iust that. By being per- manent, we have learned the many ports of the Orient more intimately, perhaps too intimately that got us into trouble a few times. But, those are memories now. We have learned the waters as well, and know that it gets rough, particularly at UNREP time. Whatever the condition of the sea, or the ports we were in, the EVERSOLE was ready. As a member of the ship's company you were part of the stamina behind the EVERSOLE of which you can be iustly proud. May each of us have billets as interesting in the future with King Neptune blessing us with a following sea. To the future with memories of the past, James W. Short -7.. N 1-'64 5 I T 1 r., c. tl L ge Lieutenant Commander Robert R. BROUILLETTE, U.S. Navy Executive Officer Lieutenant Commander Brouillette was commis- sioned in 1945 upon graduation from Midshipman School at Columbia University, New York. His first permanent duty assignment was with the Fleet Training Group, Gtmo Bay, Cuba where he also acted temporarily as Aide and Flag Lieutenant for COMNOB, Gtmo Bay. Ship board duty came in late 1947 when he assisted in placing the USS CORAL SEA KCVB-431 in commission. Sea duty continued when in 1950 he was transferred tothe USS PRINCETON CCV-371 and operated for months in the Korean area. Shore duty as Officer in Charge of the Personnel Accounting Machine In- stallation in San Francisco was next followed by -8 iv?-F'-:QB lv'-'F 0335 QLLL Line School at Monterey, California.

PiirTo is The Chaplain Tor DesTroyer Division 31. Since The Chaplain rides The Eversole more Than The o'rher ships in The division we feel ThaT he is as much a parT of The Eversole as any of The resT of us. Chaplain PiirTo enTered The armed services as a Marine in February, 1951. He saw ac- Tion in The Korean ConflicT in a radio pla- Toon. ln February, 1954 he was discharged from The Marine Corps. ln May, 1957 The Chaplain again enTered The armed services and received a commis- sion in The U.S. Naval Reserve.

Theirs is the responsibility of locating, classifying, and killing an enemy sub- mariney of effecting rescues of downed aircraft pilots and members of shipwrecked crews. Sinking an enemy cruiser with Eversole's E winning surface torpedo battery also comes under their domain. Say 'Boats', those sides need cleaningg lets get that rust that's running on the starboard waterway. The Eversole's hard working boatswainsmates and deck hands are constantly required to carry out the never ending iob of keeping Eversole shipshape and seamanlike topside and belowdecks. These and the many other odd and various jobs that sailors are required to do are carried out well and eFficiently by the Eversole Gunners. -19- DECK '31 1'fz .1 I Back row Carls Miller Jackson Glandon Barley Holsen Mrowrckr Smrth King Tucker Kernsr Lewrson Burrrs Stevens Middle row Clark Gallegos Nelson Englrsh Wrlmott Duffy Castellanos Ross Derly Dwyer Kennedy Lersure Derreux Taylor Front row Mendoza Frne Kenny Mrller Lt Klgj Martin Chief Easterlrng Close Franklrn Strrcker Lotgren Douthey DECK DIVISION Aboard any shrp or shore station rn whrch he m1Ql1T Serve a boatswarn mate and hrs seamen when you consider the skrlls requrred and expected ot thedbpatlslyvarn mate and hrs men Rrggrng boats growl BC 9 Pam'flVlQ Ship handling and navrga hon are IUST 6 few of the dutres he and hrs men must learn Although he and hrs men may not use any of these partrcular skrlls at any certain time YOU Can Count on hrm and hrs men to be there rt the need arrses Whenever the green seas are breaking over and somethrng rs endangerrng the safety ot the shrp you can depened on the boatswarn mate and hrs Although the duties of a deck seaman are not the most glamorous there seems to be somethrng that stands out about them For you must remember they are the ones that sarl the shrp tire the guns man the boats and when rt gets rrght down to rt you could say they are the backbone of the navy For without these men and their skrlls the pOW6r and mrght of the navy would be nonexrstent ' 2 ' 2 2 2 ' 2 2 ' ' 2 ' 2 ' 2 2 ' 2 2 - - 2 2 2 2 2 2 I 2 -2 2 2 2 2 2 - - 2 2 2 2 - 2 2 2 2 2 2 - PlaY 6 very important part.

Q ,u m Q A ILL A AMS FESTIVA Celebration of the annual Will Adams Festival brought the Eversole to the beautiful resort-town lto, Japan on Tuesday, August 9, 1961. A large gathering of Japanese was on hand to greet us and general visiting by the Japanese occupied much of the first day. Those who did not visit remained ID town to watch the Ito All-Stars defeat a team of Eversole and Kyes sailors 13-10 in a hard fought baseball game. The second day events were somewhat dampened by the threat of a near-by typhoon. The Eversole's l 30 well-trained drill team never got to perform as most of the day's events were cancelled. As ususal, the typoon went the other way and a sunny sky greeted lto on the third day of our visit. General visiting was resumed and we even had swim call in the afternoon. We sailed on August 12 bound for Kobe. All hands agreed, Let's come back to lto again. We made many friends in lto for Uncle Sam, naturally, we filled a few pages in our little black books. 1 s 1 1 1 R 7 ., 1 e 1 . 1 9 CHANGE OF COMMAND On September 23, 1960 at Yokosuka, Japan, Cdr.

This land of enchantment and excitement gave Us thousands of memorable liberties. We discovered that as Americans we were foreigners, and everyone of Us was an ambassador abroad. Beside the over- whelming beauty of Japan, we were impressed by the industry and adaptability of the Japanese people. We lived in a world of honcho and bliss. We became experts in foreign trade. Our many ports of call left us a wealth of experiences that a lifetime could not erase. Perhaps we shall shed a silent tear when we say sayonara for the last time. Japan was our home.

One bomb de- stroyed over 605 of the city on that Terrible day in August. There is a tomb in the heart of the city today which has over 78,000 names of lost lives. The people of the city today realize that the loss of these lives saved many more and are as cordial to any stranger as any other Japanese. Again the people have proved their worth inasmuch as they have, with the exception of ground zero itself, completely rebuilt the city along Y M X modern lines. These people, above any other, have seen the destructive power of war and ' witnessed the healing and most valuable power of peace, that of coexistence. A mistake we have surely made and with help we will profit by no repetition. So reads the inscription on the tomb of the dead for those who still live. The city is beautifully situated with rail, river, and canal connections to all maior cities of Japan. It was founded in the l6th century and was used as a military headquarters during all the Japanese wars. Today it is a commercial center and a great shipping industry connection point. - Remains At Ground Zero Hlsrorlcal Monument Kintai Bridge Mernorual Park Tradmonal Dress M ug 5 a I i QW C U , u x o ,gig :V ii. 921835315-' Sfiifyzrffl iwiffz . :mf WW K' I Z ,f341ezq,S Rim me f qv w v, 7 rig., rg MF Hp Jw l.,-me - f an v Y.: , mv, -'CM' qw. .4 -Q ,g31f.j34j Wlwyi: mx .

Be- cause a destroyer's endurance is limited by the fuel she carries, she must fuel every few days while operating with high speed task forces. For each fueling, the Oil King must balance the ship's fuel requirements between the forward and after tanks, and the deck force must rig the transfer stations. During fueling the ship must be manuevered precisely to steady up and maintain a position about thirty-tive yards from the oiler, even in heavy seas , the deck force must rig and unrig the fueling hoses and lines under any weather conditions, the engineers must accept'fuel at the highest possible pressure, with the transfer controlled by the Oil King and his sounding teams, so that the ship may top-oFf in the shortest possible time. The end product of a well-managed fueling is a high fuel transfer rate. Eversole has consistently bettered the WESTPAC standard of excellence of 4,500 barrels of fuel per hour, and on November 13, 1961, set a new all time WESTPAC transfer record by taking on 69,552 gallons from the USS Platte KAO-241 in twelve minutes, for a transfer rate of 8,280 barrels per hour.

Another year has come and gone, But the mem'ry of last year lingers on. We spent the entire evening out, lt was at sea, you can have no doubt. lt was cold and dreary, that night so long. That Christmas Eve in Sagami Wan. But this year is different, We want it to be. This Christmas will find us with family. But that's for the brown-baggers, Not steamers like we. This Christmas won't find us where we want to be, For way off far, 8000, it's true, Our families wait, For me and for you. Next year will be different, They keep saying to me. But not to be wrong, l'll wait and see. fi But, Hark! What's this comingr That little fat man With the bushy white whiskers And the bag in his hand. He stumbles and staggers But people still know, Old Santa's been tapping The Seagram's V.O. l'm not quite that drunk, He said with a knack. A moment before he fell down the stack. Now he's grimy and sooty, And his whiskers are singed. But, Look! lt's not Santa. lt's Hurst, back from a binge. We continue our wait And our watch in the darkness, With hopes that Old Santa Will soon be upon us. The crew that's aboard Are all sound, filled with slumber, And those with the watch are Few men in number. Their stockings are placed ln their boondocks with care, In hopes that the odor Will not fill the air. They toss and they burn Still asleep in their beds, While visions of Nippons Dance in their heads. CHRISTMAS 1961 by John M. Shultz lt's calm on the bridge And in combat and sonar, And for the man on the foc'sle, It sure is a loner. He stands all alone And it's cold there, l'll bet, But Santa is coming And he must be met. Then up on the bridge There arose such a clatter, As the relieved 0.0.D. Debarked down the ladder. He tripped at the top And tell all the way down, And at the bottom The crew gathered 'roundf To check on the damage Done by the fall, But nare was a dent Nor a mar on the wall. Then this time for real lt's Santa indeed, With eight tiny reindeer And Rudolph, the lead. They buzzed o'er the foc'sle And landed on deck, With a loud Ho-Ho-Ho, And a gay, What the heck At his work he's a master, With ioy and much fun. And into our lives, He brought us some sun. So Christmas is over, Each got what he rates. But tomorrow is Christmas Back home in the States. We'll stay here and fight them, With Seventh-Fleet as it be. Here's to Christmas of next year, At home and with glee.

SO2 STATISTICS Be Ye All Know . . . Since departing the U.S.A. on May 3, I960, un- til January I962: We have travelled ninety-seven thousand two hundred and twenty-seven nautical miles, or far enough to have sailed around the world three and one-half times. The total Eversole At Sea time amounts to six thousand six hundred and eighty-three hours. To all landlubbers this would work out to about eighteen miles per hour for an average speed maintained during our cruise. This feat required 5,931,644 gallons of fuel oil, LISYICS, approximately sixty gallons per mile. Had Those gallons of fuel been gasoline, you could have reasonably driven a new automobile from San Francisco to New York City and back I7,I06 times. During our time in the Far East one million eight hundred seventy-nine thousand seven hundred and ThlFTY-OHS gallons of fresh water were manufactured on board from salt sea Waier a by the crew for showers and drinking as well as cooking and feeding the four thirsty ship's boilers, C b ' rew mem ers, also thirsty, purchased Over one nd was consumed hundred sixty-one thousand two hundred and thirty- one soft drinks from the ship's vending machine. The Eversole's generators could easily supply electrical power for a city with a population of ten thousand. Nine thousand eight hundred and twenty- two light bulbs burned out around the ship during the cruise. Well over thirty seven thousand eight hundred steak dinners were served aboard and Eversole sailors downed more than thirty thousand five hundred loaves of bread, for a combined total of over one hundred and twenty thousand meals during our stay in the Far East. Ordering the various necessary supplies and pouring out omcial mail, the Eversole consumed over four tons of paper. The crew was paid over half a million dollars, bought four million cigarettes, got over ten thousand haircuts and had one hundred tons of clothing washed and dried. We have been through all this since May 3, I96O and believe us-we are sure glad to be homeward bound. 80- 3 ,li X 'Ll ? 3, 4 Q 1 Q , 'Y 'ufll V I. 2-' . f . fr 7 ' N E '-5' P I W 51. ,fi 1 ' 1 ,Z f .- ,L f if-' X ' ,X 1 ,sf ' I I , ,fe FV 'Y 5 1 Q 1 r ,,. i 553 ,gi 1 Ji ., ,, If J' gf: 17 - n 1 ' I I , u 'Y W x, J Q f 4 x A Q5 !'.,,1 1 i If ' .v-'. 9, Y 7 I .,- 6 A I mp 'V 1' . fi?
