Our 1983 Mediterranean Indian Ocean cruise has shown what a fine dedicated crew can do to make our Navy the best in the world. We were called upon to do a wide variety of things, all of which were accomplished with class . Our cruise book attempts to show, through pictures and words, what our cruise meant to the members of the MOUNT BAKER. As for myself, it has been one of the great satisfactions, being allowed to serve on the best AE in the fleet. As the Command Master Chief, I have never served with a crew who was more dedicated to their ship than the crew of the MOUNT BAKER and I am extremely proud to say that I am part of that crew. K. R.
