TKIGO SUPPLIES Prior to any lengthy deployment, ships have to take on a great deal of supplies in order to support not only themselves, but other ships in case of emergencies. NASSAU was no different, and for several days before the cruise there were working parties for food, both dry and frozen. But food was only part of the many supplies the crew loaded on. As far back as December the ship took on ammuni- tion fmiddle, rightj,-and up until a few days before departing Norfolk, parts for equipment, tools and ofHce supplies were brought up from the pier ftopj and lined the hanger deck fbottomj. It was then up to the crew to store them all below fmiddle, leftj. Supply Department coordinated the on-load in typical NAS- SAU fashion.
