7- •r Admiral Elmo R. Zumwall Chief of Naval Operations THOSE DEMEANING OR ABRASIVE =!EGULATIONS GENERALLY REFERRED TO IN THE FLEET AS MICKEY MOUSE OR CHICKEN- REGS HAVE. IN MY JUDGEMENT, DONE AS MUCH TO CAUSE DISSATISFACTION AMONG OUR PERSONNEL AS HAVE EXTENDED FAMILY SEPARATION AND LOW PAY SCALES. I DESIRE TO ELIMINATE MANY OF THE MOST ABRASIVE POLICIES AND PROVIDE SOME GENERAL GUIDANCE WHICH REFLECTS MY CONVICTION THAT IF WE ARE TO PLACE THE IMPORTANCE IN THE MOST EFFICIENT NAVY WE ARE SEEK- ING, THE WORTH AND PERSONAL DIGNITY OF THE INDIVIDUAL MUST BE FORCEFULLY REAFFIRMED. ADMIRAL ZUMWALT PREVIOUSLY SERVED AS COM- MANDER OF NAVAL FORCES IN THE REPUBLIC OF VIETNAM. EVEN THERE ZUMWALT MADE AN ENDLESS E- = c = TO covv. ;--E ;, -- --e ' . ' E the FIELD. THIS LE; : -E =Z- .

AND THE CALLER SHOULD BE INFORMED IF HIS SUGGESTION IS ADOPTED. ALSO A PACIFIC AND ATLANTIC FLEET CARRIER WERE TO BE DESIGNATED TO RECEIVE SUGGESTIONS FROM THE FLEET. WE RECOGNIZETHATTHE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF NAVYMEN WANT TO BE, AND SHOULD BE, TREATED AS GROWN.MATURE INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE CONCERNED WITH ORDER AND DISCIPLINE, BUT WHEN APPROPRIATE WANT TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO RELAX AND ENJOY ACCESS TO SOME OF THE FACILITIES ENJOYED BY THOSE OUTSIDE THE NAVY ' THE RESULTS ARE OUTSTANDING. A DEPENDENT ' S AIR CHARTER PROGRAM WAS SET UP NAVY EXCHANGES AND COMMISSARY STORES ADVISORY BOARD WERE ESTABLISHED. AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY PROGRAM IN THE NAVY WAS SET UP. ADMIRAL ZUMWALT IS MAKING IT WORK. NOT ONLY FOR THE FIRST-TERM NAVY MAN. BUT THE CAREERMAN, AND NAVY WIVES AS WELL. THE CREW OF THE USS JASON WISHES TO OFFER YOU THEIR SINCEREST THANKS. USS JASON (AR-8) WESTPAC CRUISE 1971 JANUARY 6 TO JULY 29 No man is born into the world whose work Is not born with him; there is always work, And tools to work withal, for those who will; And blessed are the horny hands of toil! James Russell Lowell :--« ? ' muA YOU CAN THINK ABOUT A LOT COMING BACK ON THE LIBERTY BOAT. WHAT LITTLE NOISE AND CHATTER THERE IS COMING FROM YOUR TIRED BUDDIES AND MATES SEEMS TO BE DEADENED BY THE RESONANT NOISE OF THE ENGINES. YOU ' RE TIRED TOO, BUT YOU ' RE LULLED INTO REFLECTION. YOU MARVEL AT THE FANTASTICALLY LARGE RED DISC DISAPPEARING BEHIND THE HORIZON; YOU THINK ABOUT THE FUTURE AND THE PAST - THE THOUGHT THAT THERE REALLY IS NO PRESENT FLASHES BY; THEN YOU ' RE HYPNOTIZED BY THE GROWING SIL- HOUETTE OF YOUR SHIP. IT NEVER ENTERED YOUR MIND BEFORE, BUT NOW YOUR SHIP SEEMS UNREAL. -Cvo-, - : . HOW COULD SUCH A MASSIVE AND AWE- SOME YET COMPLEX AND DELICATE MACHINE COME INTO BEING, EXIST FOR 20 SOME YEARS, AND, WHILE RESTING THERE SO FAR AWAY FROM HOME, GIVE NEW LIFE TO OB- JECTS THAT HAVE BECOME SPENT AND USE- LESS. THE ANSWER DOESN ' T COME EASY, BUT YOU SUDDENLY REALIZE THAT IT ' S JUST MEN WITH VARIED TALENTS AND CREATIVE ABILI- TIES WORKING AND LIVING TOGETHER IN COOPERATION THAT HAVE MADE ALL OF IT POSSIBLE. YOU ' RE DELIGHTED WITH YOUR INSIGHT AS YOU SWAGGER PROUDLY UP THE AFTERBROW. OH, BUT IT TAKES SO MUCH EFFORT AND WORK. LEAVING HOME THE JASON FOR WHICH WE WERE NAMED JASON - JA ' S ' N - IN GREEK MYTHOLOGY WAS THE LEADER OF THE ARGONAUTS WHO SAILED IN OUESTOF THE GOLDEN FLEECE. HE WAS THE SON OF AESON, KING OF lOLCOS IN THESSALY. WHILE JASON WAS A BABY, HIS FATHER ' S HALF BROTHER PELIAS GAINED THE THRONE OF lOLCOS THROUGH EVIL MEANS. JASON WAS PROTECTED AND RAISED BY THE CENTAUR CHIRON ON MOUNT PELION. WHEN JASON HAD REACHED THE AGE OF TWENTY HE RETURNED TO lOLCOS TO CLAIM HIS FATHER ' S KINGDOM. JASON ' S UNCLE, PELIAS, PROMISED HIM THE KINGDOM IF HE COULD CAPTURE THE GOLDEN FLEECE FROM COLCHIS. AFTER GATHERING A CREWOF FIFTY OF THE NATION ' S MOST FAMOUS HEROES, JASON SET SAIL IN THE SHIP ARGO ON WHAT PELIAS HOPED TO BE A FATAL VOYAGE. AS LUCK WOULD HAVE IT, JASON FELL IN LOVE WITH MEDEA, THE DAUGHTER OF THE KING OF COLCHIS. WITH MEDEA ' S HELP HE ACCOMPLISHED HIS ASSIGNED TASK ' S AND SUCCESSFULLY FLED KING AEETES ' WRATH. UPON RETURNING TO HIS OWN KINGDOM, JASON FOUND THAT PELIAS HAD KILLED HIS FATHER AND BROTHER. WITH HER MAGICAL POWERS MEDEA INDUCED THE DAUGHTER OF PELIAS, TO KILL HIM. THIS ACT INDUCED THE WRATH OF ACUSTUS, SON OF PELIAS, WHO DROVE MEDEA AND JASON FROM lOLCOS. JASON SOUGHT REFUGE WITH CREO, KING OF CORINTH. JASON, AS SOME MEN DO, TIRED OF MEDEA AND HER CRUEL SORCERY AND MARRIED CREUSA, THE KING OF CORINTH ' S DAUGHTER. MEDEA WAS NOT A WOMAN TO BE CROSSED AS JASON SOON FOUND OUT. TO AVENGE THE LOSS OF HER HUSBAND, MEDEA SENT A MAGICAL ROBE AS A WEDDING GIFT TO CREUSA, WHICH BURST INTO UNQUELCHABLE FLAMES WHEN DONNED KILLING BOTH CREUSA AND HER MOTHER. FEELING EVEN THIS WAS NOT ENOUGH VENGEANCE, MEDEA ALSO SLEW HER OWN TWO SONS BECAUSE THEY WERE ONCE A PART OF JASON. THIS IS WHERE THE STORY HAS SOME DIFFERENCE OF OPINION. THE ROMANTICS SAY THAT JASON DIED OF THE GRIEF HE ENDURED AT THIS TIME. A LATER LEGEND HAS IT THAT A PIECE OF THE STERN OF THE BEACHED ARGO FELL AND KILLED HIM. THIS ENDS THE LEGEND OF JASON, A MAN AMONG MEN WHO SAILED MANY HARD MILES TO DO WHAT SEEMED TO BE IMPOSSIBLE TASKS FOR THE SERVICE OF HIS NATION. THE USS JASON (AR-8) CARRIES ON IN THE SAME TRADITION. A PROUD SHIR MANNED BY A DISTINCTIVE CREW, SERVING THE FINEST NATION IN THE WORLD! THE USS JASON (AR8) COMMISSIONED 19 JUNE 1944 THE USS JASON OFFICIALLY BEGAN HER ILLUSTRIOUS CAREER. MOST OF OUR WORLD WAR II FLEET WAS COMMISSIONED BY THE SAME ACT THAT CONGRESS PASSED UNDER WHICH THE USS JASON RECEIVED HER AUTHORIZATION. ORIGINALLY ARH 1 SHE SAILED AFTER ONLY A BRIEF SHAKE DOWN. FOR TWO MONTHS THE JASON SERVED IN PURVIS BAY. SOLOMON ISLANDS AFTER THIS SHE WENT TO ULITHI IN MID 1944 WHERE SHE WAS TO SPEND THE GREATEST PART OF THE WAR. HERE IN ULITHI. OFTEN UNDER ENEMY ATTACK BY KAMIKAZEE AND CONVENTIONAL BOMBARDMENT, SHE TURNED SEEMINGLY HOPELESS BATTLE WRECKS INTO REJUVINATED BATTLE WORTHY SHIPS ABLE TO SERVE GALLANTLY IN THE CLOSING MONTHS OF THE WAR. WHILE DEPLOYED ON A FAR EAST CRUISE IN 1957 HER DESIGNATION WAS CHANGED FROM ARH 1 TO AR 8 ON 9 SEPTEMBER 1957 THIS TOOK PLACE IN SASEBO, JAPAN THE KOREAN CONFLICT STARTED WHILE THE JASON WAS DEPLOYED IN THE AREA SO HER CRUISE WAS EXTENDED AND SHE AGAIN PROVED HER WORTH BY HELPING TO KEEP THE MIGHTY 7TH FLEET READY FOR ACTION. AGAIN IN 1970 THE COMMUNIST THREAT HAD TO BE MET IN LAOS AND JASON WAS THERE TO SUPPORT ALL 7TH FLEET SHIPS IN THE AREA. WORLD WAR II, KOREA, LAOS, VIETNAM; JASON SERVED WITH DISTINCTION, PRIDE, AND THAT READY, WILLING AND ABLE SPIRIT THAT SHE CARRIES ON TODAY.

THROUGH THE EXPERTISE OF OUR MEDICAL OFFICER AND THE TLC AND SLEEPLESS NIGHTS OF OUR CORPSMEN, ALL THREE CASES WERE TREATED MEDICALLY, WITHOUT COMPLICATIONS.

BUT ONLY ITS FUNCTIONAL ORGANIZATION. FOR SUPPLY IS MADE UP OF INDIVIDUALS. WORKING TOGETHER TO PROVIDE. COMPENSATE AND OTHERWISE MEET THE NEEDS OF THE USS JASON (AR8) AND HER CREW. SINCE THE DEPARTMENT IS MADE UP OF INDIVIDUALS AND SOME RATHER NOVEL ONES AT THAT. THE DEPARTMENT AS A WHOLE HAS A COM POSITE PERSONALITY AND IMAGE THAT SEEM TO VARY DRASTICALLY DEPENDING ON WHETHER THE ADJUDGOR IS WITHIN OR OUT OF THE DEPARTMENT. THE FIRST AND FOREMOST PERSONALITY WITHIN THE SUPPLY DEPARTMENT AND THE MAN WHO SETS THE TONE OF SUPPLY IS. OF COURSE. THE SUPPLY OFFICER. DONALD R. PALMER. CDR. SC. USN CDR PALMER. SINCE REPORTING TO JASON IN JUNE OF 1970 HAS ADHERED TO HIS MOTTO OF WE ALWAYS GET THE JOB DONE. EVEN IF WE HAVE TO MUDDLE THROUGH IT. THE MUDDLING THROUGH. HOWEVER. IS DISTINCTLY RARE THESE DAYS. ALTHOUGH THE SPIRIT OF COOPERATION AND SINGLENESS OF PURPOSE BETWEEN THE SIX VARIED DIVISIONS IS THE RULE WITHIN SUPPLY. TO SEE THIS DASHING PERSON ALITY IN ACTION ONE NEED ONLY DROP BY COMPARTMENT NUMBER A 105 L (SUPPLY OFFICE). STARBOARD SIDE. MAIN DECK. FORWARD ON ANY WORKING DAY AND WITH A PROPERLY FILLED OUT 1348 QUIETLY APPROACH THE PANELED SALOON DOORS TOWARDS THE REAR OF THE COMPARTMENT. THESE DOORS ARE EASILY RECOGNIZABLE SINCE. (1) THEY ARE THE ONLY SALOON TYPE DOORS ON JASON. AND (2) THERE WILL USUALLY BE A CLOUD OF CIGAR SMOKE EMANATING FROM THIS VICINITY. A GENTLE KNOCK WILL GAIN YOUR CORDIAL ADMITTANCE SINCE THIS IS ANOTHER SELF PROCLAIMED LEADERSHIP WEEK IN WHICH CDR PALMER EXTENDS ALL ENERGIES TO MEET THE NEEDS OF EVERYONE IN GENERAL AND JUNIOR OFFICERS IN PARTICULAR. YOU WILL PROBABLY NOT. HOWEVER. SEE CDR PALMER AS YOU SPEAK TO HIM. SINCE HIS RIGHT HAND MAN LT CLEAN GENE SHEEHAN ALSO SHARES THIS OFFICE AND IS ACTIVELY PROMOTINGPANATELLAS AT THE TIME OF YOUR ENTRANCE. WE ARE A VARIED AND MULTITALENTED BUNCH.

FRITZ OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT THE OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT PROVIDES NAVIGATION AND OPERATION INFORMATION REQUIRED FOR OUR ASSIGNED MISSIONS THIS DEPARTMENT IS ALSO RESPON SIBLE FOR PROVIDING RELIABLE. SECURE AND RAPID EXTERNAL RADIO AND VISUAL COMMUNICATIONS. ONE VERY IMPORTANT AND UNFORGETTABLE FUNCTION OF THIS DEPARTMENT IS THE POSTAL SERVICES IT PROVIDES THE CREW. IN AS MUCH AS THE OVERALL MISSION OF THIS SHIP IS FLEET REPAIR SERVICES. OPERATIONS FURNISHES AD VANCED OPERATIONAL PLANNING INFORMATION ENABLING THE SHIP TO MEET ITS SCHEDULED COMMIT MENTS TO GIVE YOU A MORE COMPLETE PICTURE OF THE OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT. HERE IS A BREAKDOWN OF THE SEPARATE RESPONSIBILITIESOF YOUR SHIPMATES THE QUARTERMASTERS CONSISTENTLY TAKE READ INGS FROM THE STARS AND SUN TO KEEP US ON COURSE AND GUIDE US SAFELY. SO BE NICE TO THESE PEOPLE IF YOU WANT TO RETURN TO YOUR HOMELAND. IF YOU RETAIN YOUR FAITH IN THE RADARMEN. YOU CAN ALWAYS HAVE A FEELING OF SECURITY. THEY KEEP A CONSTANT SURVEILLANCE WHILE THE SHIP IS UNDER- WAY OF ANYTHING SURROUNDING IT THE SIGNALMEN ON YOUR SHIP HAVE THE RESPONSI BILITY OF ADMINISTERING PROPER COURTESY TO HIGH RANKING NAVAL OFFICIALS, DRESSING SHIP FOR NATIONAL HOLIDAYS AND COMMUNICATING WITH OTHER VESSELS BY MEANS OF HAND AND SIGNAL FLAGS. (AND OF COURSE WHEN THEY SIGHT A SWEDISH RAFT FULL OF BEAUTIFUL FEMALES. IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT THEY ACT QUICKLY. WHAT SORT OF MILITARY COURTESY COULD THEY RENDER ' PERHAPS THEY WOULD PUT UP THE FLAG OF SURRENDERI PERHAPS THE RADIO- MEN HAVE GIVEN YOU GOOD NEWS AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER BY ROUTING YOU A MESSAGE ON THE BIRTH OF A BABY KEEP IN CONTACT WITH THEM THE RADIO MEN MAY TURN OUT TO BE VERY GOOD FRIENDS.

KUELPMAN fZ 58 ENGINEERING ALL LIVING ORGANISMS HAVE A CERTAIN INTERNAL STRUCTURE THAT SELDOM IS SEEN BY PERSONS WHO ARE ORDINARY OBSERVERS HOWEVER TO THE TRAINED EYE, THE INTERNAL ORGANS ARE OFTEN OF MORE IMPORTANCE THAN THE OUTSIDE APPEARANCES. SUCH IS TRUE OF THE JASON. THOUGH SHE MAY APPEAR TRIM AND READY FOR SEA FROM THE PIER, HER INTERNAL ORGANS MUST BE OPERATIVE FOR MAXIMUM PER- FORMANCE. THE CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF THESE ORGANS FALL TO THE PERSONNEL OF THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT. THE PRIMARY FUNCTION OF THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT IS TO KEEP THE SHIP READY FOR SEA, TO DO THIS, ENGINEERING MUST CONVERT SEA WATER TO STEAM TO DRIVE THE TURBINES AND ALSO KEEP THE MAIN ENGINES RUNNING WITHOUT MISHAP. THE DEPA RTMENTS CONTROL OVER THE MAIN PROPULSION GIVES THE SHIP IT ' S BASIS OF MOBILITY WHENEVER IT IS NEEDED. THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ESTAB- LISHMENT, OBSERVATION AND ADHERENCE TO SAFETY RULES AND REGU- LATIONS. THE DEPARTMENT ALSO PROVIDES FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT, PREVENTION OF FIRES, D.C. TRAINING AND CON- STANT SURVEY OF THE SHIP ' S WATER TIGHT INTEGRITY BOTH IN PORT AND OUT OF PORT. THE MOST USED OF THE POWER SOURCES ON JASON COMES FROM ENGINEERING ' S ELECTRICAL POWER. THIS POWER WAS PRODUCED IN AMPLE SUPPLY TO RUN NOT ONLY THE MACHINERY USED FOR REPAIR ON BOARD JASON BUT ALSO THE LUXURY ITEMS THAT MAKE SHIPBOARD LIFE MORE COMFORTABLE, SUCH AS MOVIE PROJECTORS AND AIR CONDITIONERS IN WORKING AND LIVING SPACES. THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT IS, IN TRUTH, THE NUCLEUS AROUND WHICH THE SHIP REVOLVES. ENGINEERING MEETS THIS CHALLENGE WITH THE SPIRIT THAT HAS MADE OUR NAVY WHAT IT IS TODAY 59 M DIVISION LTJGD.R.

FLYNN 82 4 ,  ® SEVERAL FACTORS FORM THE BASIS FOR THE REPUTATION A SHIP ENJOYS; ITS APPEAR- ANCE, THE SMARTNESS OF ITS EVOLUTIONS, ITS SAFETY RECORD, THE CONDUCT OF ITS PRIMARY MISSION AND THE EFFECTIVE UTILIZATION OF ITS WEAPONS BEING AMONG THE MOST IMPORTANT. EXCELLENCE IN EACH OF THESE AREAS IS DEPENDANT UPON A TOP NOTCH DECK DEPARTMENT. THIS DEPARTMENT ONBOARD THE JASON, LED BY LT CM. FLYNN, POSSESS A WE CAN HACK IT ATTITUDE WHICH HAS MADE IT ONE OF THE FINEST AND PROUDEST DECK DEPARTMENT ON ANY NAVAL VESSEL THE TRADITION OF THE PROFESSIONALISM OF THE BOATSWAIN ' S MATES AS THE BACK- BONE OF THE NAVY PERSISTS EVEN IN THE MODERNIZATION AND SPECIALIZATION OF THE FLEET TODAY. THE DECK APES OF FIRST AND SECOND DIVISION ARE JUSTIFIABLY PROUD OF THE MANNER IN WHICH THEY UPHOLD THIS TRADITION. THESE MEN MUST BE COMPE- TENT IN A VARIETY OF AREAS DUE TO THE DIVERSITY OF THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES, SOME OF WHICH ARE, THE APPEARANCE OF THE SHIP, THE UPKEEP AND MANNING OF THE SHIP ' S BOATS, MOORING AND UNMOORING THE SHIP, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE TWO LARGE BOAT AIRPLANE CRANES AND WATCHES BOTH INPORT AND UNDERWAY. THE CONDUCT OF ALL SEAMANSHIP EVOLUTIONS IN A SAFE MANNER AND THE SHIP ' S CONTINUED SHARP APPEARANCE EVIDENCE THE CAPABILITIES AND DEDICATION OF THIS GROUP OF MEN. A FURTHER RESPONSIBILITY OF THE DECK DEPARTMENT FALLS ON THE GUNNER ' S MATES AND FIRE CONTROL TECHNICIANS OF THIRD DIVISION, THAT OF OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE SHIP ' S WEAPON SYSTEM. SAFE OPERATION OF THE GUN MOUNTS COUPLED WITH ACCURATE FIRE MADE POSSIBLE BY SKILLED MAINTENANCE OF HIGHLY COMPLEX EOUIPMENT, HAVE ESTABLISHED HIGH STANDARDS WHICH ARE CONTINUOUSLY MAINTAINED. A SCORE OF 95.3 ON THE ADMINISTRATION PORTION OF THE PRE- DEPLOYMENT INSPECTION, WITH NO DISCREPANCIES LISTED, AND A SCORE OF 100 ON THE LAST GUN FIRE EXERCISE SHOW THE THOROUGH COMPETENCE OF THE GUNNERY DIVISION. THE DECK AND GUNNERY DIVISIONS COMBINED FORM A DEPARTMENT WHICH PLAYS AN INTEGRAL PART IN VIRTUALLY EVERY SHIPBOARD EVOLUTION AND CONTRIBUTE GREATLY TO THE REPUTATION OF THE SHIP. THE JASON CAN BE JUSTLY PROUD OF THE INDIVIDUALS COMPRISING THE DECK DEPARTMENT AND THE CONTRIBUTION THEY MAKE THROUGH THE EFFECTIVE COORDINATION OF THEIR EFFORTS. 83 FIRST DIVISION FIRST DIVISION. HEADED BY THE SHIP ' S BOATSWAIN AND FIRST DIVISION OFFICER. BM1 L.W. MUSICK HAS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE 01 LEVEL, QUARTERDECK AND THE FORE CASTLE WHICH INCLUDES THE GROUND TACKLE.
