Chip- ping, scraping, and painting are continuous jobs on any ship. Though this task is la- borious, the boatswain's mates kept the THOMASON looking sharp throughout the cruise. The deck force is an integral part of many of our evolutions. They take care of the raising and lowering of the anchor, launch- ing and retrieving of the motor whale boat, and they man numerous stations during pilot rescue, plane guard, and replenish- ment details. Deck force personnel also man many of the stations in the gun mounts, magazines, and handling rooms when the Fighting John is at GQ or on shore bombardment assignments. They therefore hefted a lot of powder and shells over in Viet Nam. Since new men to the fleet usually start off in the deck force, there are a lot of humor- ous incidents involving deck personnel who haven't yet acquired some salt. A lot of men are on the short end of traditional sailing pranks such as standing mail buoy watch , chasing down batteries for the sound pow- ered phones, hunting for relative bearing grease, etc.
