ENS FINLEY passes instructions to the helmsman, while standing wa ' ch as Officer of the Deck. For the ship ' s officers, the wardroom offered a place to relax, a dining room, a place to hash out administrative problems. The ship had a rapid turnover in officers during the cruise.

In the nightly bridge games LT Loren KRIENKE established himself as the authority. 60
