She is a Fletcher class destroyer, is 376 feet long, has a beam of 39 feet, and a displacement of 2100 tons. She is named for the late Bear Admiral Lewis Broughton Porterfield. After her shakedown training the POBTBBFIELD joined our combatant forces in the Western Pacific where she remained until the end of World War ll. ln October of 1945 she reported to the Pacific Reserve Fleet, and was decommissioned and placed in inactive status. During her first commis- sion the POBTBBFIELD steamed over 155,000 miles, received credit for the destruction of sixteen lap- anese aircraft and one surface ship. She partici- pated in nine major operations including Okinawa, Saipan, the Marianas campaign and in the Philip- pine lslands. The POBTEBFIELDS second life began at the Naval Station, Long Beach, on 27 April 1951, to help meet the threat in Korea.After her shakedown -period she again headed west, for the new combat- zone. During her first Korean cruise she operated with both Task Force 77 and 95, and participated in the Formosa Patrol. She logged 50,000 miles, rescued three downed aviators, and took a hit from a Communist shore battery on the West coast of Korea. She returned home in March 1952, and proceeded to the U. S. Naval Shipyard at Hunter's Point in San Francisco, California, for overhaul. f:Following her yard period and refresher train- ing, she again turned her bow west in October 1952, and embarked on her second Far Eastern cruise since recommissioning. Again, she spent some very 'chilly months around Korea. Seven months and 50,000 miles later she returned to San Diego for a well earned rest period. But the rest in San Diego was more apparent on the operation schedule than it was to either the POBTBBFIELD or her crew. Both ship and men spent a very busy six months operating in the San Diego area. Getting underway before sunrise was routine. During the summer of 1953, while the ship was on a three week training cruise to the Sea Fair the Armistice was signed in Korea. Finally on 26 December 1953, after an eleven day reprieve, in order that the crew would be able to spend Christmas in the con- tinental United States, the POBTEBFIELD again sailed Westward on her third Western Pacific cruise since recommissioning, arriving in Yokosuka, Ia- pan on Ianuary 12. sslfgfgcj .wwf MA , , 1 5 ,if i . g E . 2 1 .,,, - F..

In 1946 Lcdr. Koch was assigned to the Naval ROTC Unit at the University of Minnesota as Assistant Professor of Naval Science. In 1949 he served as Operations Officer aboard the USS 1-IANSON CDDR-8321. From Iuly of 1951 to December of 1952 he was Operations Officer aboard the USS COWELL CDD-5471. From there he went to the Nava1 Station at Norfolk for duty at the Fleet Training Center, and then to USNPG school prior to assign- ment to the USS PORTERFIELD CDD-6821. A THE CAPTAIN Commander Everett E. Roberts, Ir., USN was graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 1940. I-le first served aboard the USS INDIAN- APOLIS CCA-351 where he was Engineering 1. O. and Gunnery Division Officer. - In 1944, while serving aboard the USS SAMUEL B. ROBERTS CDE-4135 as Executive Officer, his ship was sunk in the battle off Samar, in an engage- ment between destroyer escorts and battleships andfor cruisers. I-Ie spent two days and nights adrift in the Pacific after this engagement. The USS SAMUEL B. ROBERTS CDE-4131 was awarded the Presidential Unit Citation. Commander Roberts was awarded the Legion of Merit with combat distinguishing device. The last part of World War II he served as Gunnery Officer aboard the USS IUNEAU CCL-1191 lust prior to relieving as commanding officer of the USS PORTERFIELD CDD-6821 on Iuly 17, 1954, Commander Roberts was studying Radiological Defense Engineering at the University of Cali- fornia at Berkeley, where he received his masters- degree. . 3 PER 5' 7 1 1t..,..0.S E, W Easggfg, T00 .Ames L7 K , lg lm Q7 0 D0 OO' bb 3' ' UD yy OOM OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT The overall responsibilities of the Operations Department are: col- lection, evaluation, and dissemination of combat and operational informa- tion required for the assigned missions and tasks of the ship. In carrying out these broad responsibilities the following specific duties must be per- formed by members of the Operations Department: l. The conduct of surface and air search. 2. The execution of electronic- countermeasures. 3. The control of aircraft when air-borne and assigned to the ship. 4. The conduct of all exterior communications. 5. The control of registered publications. 6. The collection and analysis of intelligence information. 7. The preparation of operation plans and training schedules. 8. The maintenance and repair of all electronic equipment on the ship. 9. The collection, interpretation, and dissemination of aerological in- formation. During this cruise 8 March 1955 to 4 September 1955, even though short handed, the men of the Operations Department did a very fine job.

I'm sitting in Eve's Last Leaf nite club watching a boring floor show when I hear a dame yell. . ' Next to me this guy was beating up his wife, I didn't like it, she was bleeding in my drink. I reached over and smashed his nose with my gun barrel. He snarled you shouldn't have done that, Buster. I shot him, my name is not Buster. His widow objected, I shot her twice. Chills ran up and down my spine, a fan dancer had caused too much breeze. Hate filled my eyes, I stuck a cigar in a bubble dancers balloon. The blast whisked her off stage, she finished the act in band aids. ' I hated this kind of night, no action. The bartender lifted my glass, I shot him, the glass wasn't empty. How about a light Handsome. She was gorgeous. Golden curls melted over her bare shoulders. It was a good thing she'd forgotten the top of her dress. She kept blowing smoke in my face and asking me to see her etchings. I Tossing down my drink I heard a soft thud. The blonde was sprawled out on the floor-a dagger between her shoulders. 1 its BACK ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT: Palo BMSN, Botherick TESN, Van Ravenswaay TE3 Willis YNSA Ebert RMC, Bachtell LTtjgl, Blackwood QMC, Upchurch TE2, Burkholder QM2 MIDDLE ROW Connelly SN, Haack SN, Kirkland BMSN, Malek YN3, Cain YNSN Meyers YNSN Brown SN Beck RMS.

Beside her body lay a magazine, Wine, Women and Sunshine-I knew it wasn't mine because my subscription had run out. Following the clue I dashed to my Iaguar and drove into the lobby of my hotel. I would need a clean shirt if I was going to a nudist colony. Passing the city limits out highway lOl my headlights swept across a flesh colored sign. Freckle Valley it read, spelled out in sun tan bottles. The kindly old lady at the gate gave me a basket for my clothes. I suspected Granny until she explained it was the regu- lations. I The first day I uncovered no clues. Then I was invited to play ping pong by a dame called Dimples. The fourteenth ping pong ball I swallowed forced me to give it up as a bad job. I staggered out the front gate a failure. My body burned with shame, one of the dolls in the camp was wearing the Iade earrings, but I forgot xto look at her ears. I blew my brains out! l v s ! I. I I 7 L gf ,I ., A' X OI DIVISION Well, chalk up another Far East tour for us. For some of us this was the first tour, for others it was a renewal of old ac- quaintances, and a revisit of old places. For the old salg, Bangkok was the only new scenery. There were some 'inter- esting sights. For one, when Earl and Murray saw the walking fish and swore off until Childs brought one aboard. Hong Kong was everything we expected. Clothing is really a buy and we bought! Between the Tiger Balm Gardens and the slit skirts I think the slit skirts received the most attention. The two Daves, Schmidt and Lee, were invited over to Kow- loon by some people from the American Consulate. They spent the day swimming among the sharks but the worst they got was a sunburn. There's not much to say about Formosa, unless you like rice. Old Red Franz drew shore patrol there and won't forget it because of the fight he helped break up. l think the first choice is still the hot baths in Iapan. They sure are relaxing. Some of the guys went up to Yokohama and Tokyo, sightseeing. While we were in Yokosuka we had a ship's party. The gangway sure seemed steep that night! . ..,., 449 N.. . fs QI! iff!!! fl I E ' t i y if .fl LEFT TO RIGHT, BACK ROW: Nagle ETSN, Earl RD2, Heins LTGQD, McCray RDZ, Lunsford RD2, Childs SN.

A real crazy sight were the Gooney birds on Midway. ln tact, that's about all there was on Midway. The most beautiful place we saw was Hawaii, especially on the way home. Some of the gang rented a car and took a tour ot the island. They saw the sights, did some swimming, and argued about who was going to drive. Well, this brings us back to San Diego. Most ot the guys are on leave, and in a few months, many new faces will be seen in the division. So we'll sign oii now and leave it up to the gang oi the next cruise to tell you of their experiences. l ml-L f Lf' 1 .f ' L. 415 ' 'A ll l lk if W N, 53 ij!!

The ship's main battery of offensive armament consists of five inch dual purpose gun mounts. As another major weapon, it carries five torpedoes. The secondary battery is composed of forty millimeter gun mounts, which are used for anti-aircraft purposes. For antisubmarine warfare, the ship is equipped with hedgehogs and depth charges. There are five rates in the gunnery department. Boatswain's Mates CBMD, the jack-of-all-trades rate, have responsibility for the appearance and preser- vation of the main deck, O-l deck and the sides of the ship. lt is they who must continually struggle against the eternal decay and corrosion caused by the sea. ln addition, they are responsible for all ground tackle, and care and coxswaining of the ship's two boats. Truly the art of seamanship is theirs. Boatswain Mates are usually assigned to gunnery stations and repair parties during general quarters. Gunner's Mates CGMD must know how to operate, clean, and maintain the ship's five inch and forty millimeter guns. Rated gunner's mates are usually assigned the responsible jobs of gun captains at battle stations. This means they must not only know how to operate their guns and effectively coordinate their gun crews as a team, but they must be able, if necessary, to take complete charge of the mount and fire locally. Firecontrolmen CFTD are technicians, both in main- taining firecontrol equipment and in operating it. Firecontrol equipment electronically and mechani- cally solves the big problem of where to aim the guns in order to hit a target, and it is the job of the FT's both to keep this equipment in operating condi- .X X6 in tion, and, during the firing of the guns, operate the computer, rangefinder, and radar, so that the ship's gunfire will be effective. Theirs is an extremely re- sponsible job. Torpedomen CTMJ are primarily concerned with the upkeep of their five torpedoes, kept in the tor- pedo tube mount amidships. These torpedoes may be launched on a high speed run on any large enemy surface craft, and pack the largest single blow the ship can deliver. The Torpedomen also have charge of the depth charges, which are fired from projectors placed on either side of the ship, and rolled from racks off the stern. The hedgehog mounts which comprise the other half of the ship's anti-sub- marine armament, are twin projectors placed for- ward of the bridge on the O-l deck. The Hedge- hogs are a type of rocket, and are launched in two patterns. These are fired in a trajectory forward of the ship, and enter and fall through the water to strike any enemy submarine lurking beneath the surface. r The Sonarmen CSO? have the great responsibility of operating underwater sound equipment tsonarl to detect the presence of enemy sub-surface craft. Theirs is a day-in-day-out job spent scanning a scope and listening with their ears for the characteristic echo of any enemy submarine. Once contact is made, they function as a highly integrated and coordin- ated team, obtaining maximum possible information about the submarine in order that the ship may conduct a successful attack. ln addition, the sonar- men muslt maintain and repair their own equipment. Those are the five ratings of the Gunnery Depart- ment. Taken separately each is a specialist in his field. Taken together, all operate effectively and are coordinated by the commanding officer in battle to give the ship its offensive wallop. f'X FIRST DIVISION Another year has gone by and we can look back on another eventful cruise with its many experiences and good times. Oh, it wasn't all play and no work, we had the same old routine that is necessary on every ship. For the lst Division there was the constant chore of keeping the forward part of the ship looking trim, along with the many details that had to be manned such as: picking up the buoy, anchor detail, retrieving the sleeve after firing, the high line and fueling details. There was never any trouble, trying to find something to do! lt was the good liberty ports that made us forget those busy days at sea. This cruise provided a couple of new stopsp one of which was Bangkok, Thailand with the beautiful splendor of the many colorful Budda Temples. One of the fellows in the lst Division was fortunate in finding a home away from home. He met an Army Sergeant and his family and was invited to their home for a treat of water buffalo and all the trimmings. ln Hong Kong everyone took advantage of the low cost of clothing to fatten their wardrobes. A tour of the Island topped off with a swell steak dinner was a real treat. There wasn't much to do in Formosa, although the crew did enjoy a swimming party held at one of the beaches. ' Of all the ports we entered japan was the most popu- lar. There is always so much to do there. Yokosuka has the finest E. M. Club known to a serviceman. From Yokosuka it is just a short train ride to Yokohama or Tokyo which is a real sight-seeing trip for any for- eigner. On the way home we had a brief stop at Midway. About the only thing of considerable interest there was the beautiful water that surrounded the Island and the Gooney birds that were there. , There was plenty of time in Pearl Harbor to enjoy the many beaches and means of entertainment, but knowing we were so close to home, that was quickly passed, and we steamed home to San Diego.

Composed at present of 10 Gunner's Mates and 24 Boat's. The Boat's maintain the Motor Whale Boat and the after head and keep up the ship from amidship's aft, which is the greater part oi the ship, on the rough days when the ship is taking water over the side the men will be right there putting up litelines and securing gear tor rough weather. The Gunners mates although small in number do the job ot twice their number. . .they are the hearty salts who keep the guns operable in order to knock down sleeves and make hits on the sled during gun- nery exercises-let's have a look at the men in the second division at work.

Their unique abilities to keep the ship steaming by tightening a bolt here, or connecting a loose Wire there, are unsurpassed. The Whole Department is made up ot Machinist Mates, who run the Main Propulsion Engines which turn over the huge propellers, with Boilermen who operate the boilers that supply steam for the Main Engines. Then there are the shiptitters welding here and there, Electricians with plenty of hot spark, plus the Enginemen, who keep the Motor Whale Boat engine purring like a kitten. lt it were not tor the Engineering Department it is a cinch that the ship would not move, unless she drifted. These men follow a code similar to the ten commandments, which means follow the books, fol- low the orders ot the superiors, and keep the home boilers burning. f sez-IJ DIVISION The Engineers of the Porterfield were named the tops in a recent inspection of the ships in the division. Whenever an emergency arises that calls tor the ship with the least fuel consumption, the Portertield always comes to the rescue. The engineers aboard the Portertield are proud of their division and they deserve to be, looking at their spaces proves the fine work they've been doing. They constantly strive for improvements and aim for per- fection. Being chosen the finest engineering department in the division is one ot the feathers in their caps. On a normal day when the cool salt air is breezing over the Foc'sle, take a trip down to the big plant, and don't be too surprised when the heat hits you in the face. lt is usually 30 degrees warmer in the Engineer- ing plant.

SCHAWRZZN R DIVISION You probably know what the R is for, Yep, repair. After the self appointed mechanics in the rest of the divisions, and navy repair fa- cilities work our gear over and it either falls apart or won't run, they dump the Whole Works on one ot our benches with that pleading look in their eyes Fix it l'll drop by in about an hour for it. Really, thouqh, the Shipfitters, electricians and Aux gang aboard ship all go toqether to make up the best-damm-division aboard. We do try to live up to our motto The impossible We can do but miracles take time.

Then from her stern came a thundering noise. They said It's just one of those little boys The crew was right, what they said was true, But they didn't know it was the 682, That cruiser crew moaned, they said it stunk. They didn't want that little island sunk. But the guns were trained, and there is nothing to do, That will stop the Destroyer 682. So the can fired on till the break of day And that island looked like it was there to stay. When all of a sudden with a terrible shock, That island went down like a ton of rock. The GO. couldn't figure it, but old Howell knew. He was just too insulted to tell the crew. E His experience had taught him when things get hot, That Weisend would be there with his atomic slingshot. The Supply Department is broken down into 6 components: Storekeepers, Disbursing Clerks, Ship Servicemen, Commissarymen, Hospitalmen and Stewards Mates. Each rate has a job to do that is all important in the well being of a ship. l..et's take a look at each rate to explain. The Storekeepers procure, receive, store and ac- count for all material received on board. Naturally this takes a lot of records and paperwork. lt's amaz- ing how they can get the job done in an office so small. lt's like trying to work in a clothes closet that already has five people in it. I The DK's do more than pay you. True, since you only see them on pay day you may forget that they too have records to keep and accountability to maintain. si' 5 HJ 1 l UT Paysan The Ships Servicemen run the retail store, the barber shop and the laundry. You'd really miss these people if they were all transferred at once. Their motto is service to the ship. The cooks and bakers prepare and serve the chow. Sure we know it probably isn't as good as mother used to make but then mother wasn't cooking for 250 men each day. These men get up earlier than the rest of the crew and work longer than anyone on board. The Hospitalmen assigned are kidded about Shots etc. but it sure is nice to know you got a good doc aboard when you head for sea for three weeks. The Stewards domain is the officers country they cook, clean, serve the meals, etc. They have a lot of pride in their work and it shows aboard this s ip. This is just a short sketch of the department, a department composed of 6 different kinds of special- ists who are always ready to report their part of the ship ready for sea.
