The em- phasis on tender utilization, however, re- quired us to remain in the Philippine port of Subic Bay at the vast Naval complex there. In Subic, we rendered a five and one- half month fleet repair support period which saw 432 availabilities given to 237 different ships. 45 of the ships were taken alongside, with five ships outboard to port no unusual sight. 42 different types of ships were rendered availabilities, rang- ing in size from small ocean-going mine- sweepers to the nuclear-powered ENTER- PRISE and six other attack aircraft carriers. The arrival of USS HADDOCK QSS CNJ-6211 and USS BAINBRIDGE QDLG CNJ-251 alongside marked firsts in our nuclear repair work. HADDOCK was the first nuclear-powered fast attack sub- marine ever rendered an availability by a destroyer tender and BAINBRIDGE was our first nuclear-powered surface ship brought alongside. Over 12,500 work requests were pro- cessed through our Repair Office. This represented 197,100 manhours of work devoted to other ships and the expendi- ture of nearly S300,000 in parts and re- pair funds. To support this repair effort, the Supply Department, carrying in its inven- tory more items than are listed in the Sears and Roebuck catalog, issued ma- terial through l5,000 requisitions valued at approximately S700,000. The food ser- vices division served meals to 480,000 personnel who consumed nearly 700 tons offood. While their ships were undergoing the SAMUEL GOMPERS treatment, de- stroyer sailors were being treated in the Medical and Dental Departments. Over 3,000 sailors were examined and treated by the four-dentist clinic and the depart- ment records show over 3,500 fillings were accomplished. On the more painful side, 425 teeth were pulled. Out-patient care was given to over 3,300 patients and 218 men were admitted to our 43-bed hospital and operating room complex. ln port, when destroyers came along- side, they found it necessary in many in- stances to go dead plant , shutting down most of their engineering ma- chinery. Our Engineering Department furnished steam and other services to permit maximum maintenance on the war- weary ships. Over 1,500,000 kilowatt hours of electricity flowed through the cables winding over, around, and between the multi-ship nests. The Weapons Department issued and transferred 103 torpedos to destroyers during the deployment, besides main- taining a high state of proficiency in its security functions. The volume of destroyer sailors and material traveling to and from the beach was fielded by Deck Department boat crewmen who provided continuous boat services, working 19 hour days. Admiral V. G. Lambert, Commander of the Subic Naval Base, commended GOMPERSMEN in a letter: Our best wishes to the crew of GOMPERS for the continuation of such an outstanding record of contributions in so many areas. To the fine crew of GOMPERS, we re- gretfully say, 'Sayonara' and 'Mabuhay' and 'Godspeed'! E TMT3- if ' Q. 1 I .

'wily -iff' If Commissioned on l July, I967, USS SAMUEL GOMPERS QAD-373 is the first ship in the fleet to bear this name, and the first of a new class of destroyer tender. GOMPERS' mission is to repair and support destroyer-type ships, in- cluding destroyer escorts and nuclear- powered guided missile frigates. SAMUEL GOMPERS, at 643 feet in length, 85 feet in width and displacing 20,260 tons at full load, is nearly l00 feet longer, 20 feet wider, and over 5,000 tons heavier than the largest de- stroyer tenders now in service. Her size is second only to the battleship NEW JERSEY in the Cruiser-Destroyer Force, Pacific Fleet. Her mean naviga- tional draft is 22 feet, six inches. and her single screw power plant produces a top speed in excess of 20 knots. She is de- signed to be manned by 3l officers and l025 enlisted men and has extensive ac- commodations for a flag officer and his staff. The two higher pressure boilers comprising the engineering plant are capable of generating enough steam to heat a city of l0,000. The same two boil- ers furnish 20,000 shaft horsepower for propulsion. One boiler is able to furnish the necessary in-port steam require- ments to a normal nest of guided missile destroyer-type ships alongside. GOM- PERS' four ship-service generators are capable of generating 10,000 kilowatts of electrical power, or enough electricity to light a city of 50,000. GOMPERS' two l00,000 gallons per day evaporators can fill the waterneeds of a city of 8,000 GOMPERS' Repair Department is , , , ,tra - ,q6n tM comprised of six Repair Divisions, one of which is charged with the repair of nu- clear-powered propulsion plants. Included within this division is an extensive radioactive chemistry laboratory equip- ped with the latest analytical apparatus. The Electronics Repair shop can repair and calibrate virtually every type of nu- clear reactor instrument, as well as ships' communications. radar, and navi- gation equipment. When one of the destroyers along- side requires major repairs such as the removal of heavy machinery or propel- lors. two 30 ton capacity cranes are located amidships to assist in the job. Two 3' .ttf 1 ton capacity telescopic-boomed traveling cranes are located outboard on each side of the ship which are used for handling stores, small boats, and other material. To support the repair effort and the requirements of other ship's depart- ments, the Supply Department carries an inventory of nearly 70,000 repair parts and material with a value in excess of 2 million dollars. These are stored in 65 storerooms whose total storage capacity could house 70 full-sized automobiles. Virtually every storeroom is serviced by a vertical conveyor, a freight elevator, or a dumbwaiter. The second deck is de- signed to allow the use of fork lift trucks to move material to or from elevators and conveyors. A modern shipboard computer instal- lation is included in the inventory of GOMPERS' facilities. The computer is not only used to keep track of the thou- sands of different items of repair parts, xc.. provisions, materials, and equipage, but is programmed to account for the many categories of funds necessary to operate a ship of this size, to assist the Repair Officer in maintaining workload and ma- terial controls, and to lighten the clerical burden in the areas of personnel adminis- tration and disbursement of pay and al- lowances. After acceptance trials, SAMUEL GOMPERS arrived in her home port of San Diego, California on 6 October l967. She then departed San Diego on l0 No- vember l967 for a shakedown cruise consisting of a six month deployment to the Western Pacific. During repair avail- ability periods in the Japanese ports of Yokosuka and Sasebo, and the Taiwan port of Kaohsiung, SAMUEL GOMPERS ren- dered fleet repair support to one hundred fifty-two ships and related activities of which forty-four were ships assigned alongside availability. The Repair De- partment processed 6,2l5 work requests amounting to vessel repair expenditures of over Sl67,000. Short visits to Hong Kong and Subic Bay, P.l. were included in the deployment. The ship returned to the continental United States on 8 May I968 and later completed a post-shake- down availability in Bremerton, Washing- ton during the summer. GOMPERS then returned to San Diego on 3l July 1968 to serve as flagship for Commander Cruiser-Destroyer Force, Pacific Fleet until this, her second deployment to the Western Pacific. CJ The first Commanding Officer of USS SAMUEL OOM PERS, Captain Risch began his Naval career in 1942 as a Naval Avia- tion Cadet. After flight training, he re- ceived his wings and was commissioned an Ensign at Pensacola. Florida in 1942. Between 1944 and 1948, Captain Risch underwent further flight training and served with various Pacific Fleet Patrol Squad- rons, including units based at Whidbey Island. San Diego. and Okinawa. He was as- signed duty as a flight instructor in 1948 and spent two years in this capacity at Cor- pus Christi. Texas. After undergoing heli- copter training in 1950. Captain Risch served as officer-in-charge of various helicopter detachments in the Atlantic Fleet. January of 1954 saw Captain Risch assigned to USS WORCESTER CCL-1441 as Fire Control Officer. From WOR- CESTER, after a short time with Destroy- er Squadron 6 based at Norfolk, Virginia, he was ordered in 1956 to USS ROBERT A. OWENS QDD-8271 as Executive Officer.

We were to operate with a destroyer for- mation for our entire transit. The destroy- ers USS HOPEWELL CDD-6811, USS SWENSON CDD-7295, and USS DUNCAN QDD-8743 joined with the guided missile frigate USS COONTZ QDLG-93 in making up our task unit. During the crossing, we unrepped the cans three times, trans- ferring over 1,000,000 gallons of fuel. On Thanksgiving Day, a dramatic hi-lining brought Seaman Leslie Counts to the oper- ating room of the ship from the SWENSON and anemergency appendectomy saved his life. What was once something new for de- stroyer tenders in recent years soon be- came routine for GOMPERSMEN. The only criticism received: no green stamps on the last go-around. 1 .

Our record would be made here, moored to good old Buoy M9 with 30 fathoms of chain out. Our liberty bouts would carry us to the temporary Fleet Landing, where we would fan out into Olongapo. take weekends in Manila. tour the countryside in the modern Victory liners. The mountain resort of Baguio contrasted with the hot plains of the in- terior. We formed teams and took on all opponents. including the San Miguel brew- ery nine. Our People-to-People projects gave the Filipinos our profile and visit after visit cemented friendship and good will. Mrs. Gordon took care of the Mont- marte and started the park outside the gate.

Destroyer sailors were the honored guests, but GOM- PERSMEN were there in number, too.

The China Fleet Club was the first stop. Check out the prices and merchan- dise there, then head out into town to do some wheelin' and dealin'. Tailor made suits, shirts, shoes. . . you name it, they had it somewhere in the back. 'You can take the Star Ferry from the island to Kow- loon on the mainland. From there tours move into the New Territories, right up to the Bamboo Curtain. The boat cities of Aberdeen and the floating restaurants show a people who are born, grow-up, marry, raise children, and die, one hundred yards from shore in a myriad of small boats, but who have never been on solid land in theirlives. The scene is international. Walking down the streets you can see Chinese, Japanese, Indians, Filipino, and yes, round-eyes , British, Australian, even an American here and there. At night, the psychedelic lights beckon to a whirlwind of night clubs in the Wanchai district, or you can travel uptown to the Hilton to the Dragon room.

TURNER Electrical Repair Officer REP IR Comprising nearly one-half of the ship's entire crew, the Repair Department is where it's at . Here is where Service Supreme takes on its meaning to the oper- ating forces. Here is where a great part of the profile of a destroyer tender is filled, Fifty-five shops fill that profile, ac- complishing jobs which range from the re- pair of delicate ship's chronometers to the pouring and molding of molten metal in the manufacture of parts which are unavailable or require special machining to conform to a ship's specification. Destroyer squadron commanders, di- vision commanders, group commanders, all recognized the GOMPERS standard of excellence in their praise of our note- worthy achievements.

Ar UPPLY The six division Supply Department shoulders the responsibility for the pro- curement and requisitioning of material, supplies, parts, and consumables neces- sary in destroyer tender operations. Be- sides accounting for the requirements of the tender, the department must plan for furnishing supplies and materials which are needed for a large number of different types of ships. The vast inventorying pro- cedure must be able to predict the require- ments of a full deployment and must be able to provide material on a priority basis for the emergency repair jobs which are assigned to the tender. Coupled with this responsibility was the added consideration of just what a new class destroyer tender might require in the way of material not previously required in tender operations. All of these problems are encountered on a deployment, and part of our profile was the effort of the Supply Department in meeting our committments. CDR D. M.
