The never ending paperwork that is maintained for every function on board, in one way or another, finds its way to the IBM keys, outgoing mail desk, suspense sheet, or route slip system maintained in the Admin Department. Major tasks supremely completed in Admin include: educational services, legal services, word processing, personnel record keeping, 3-M coordination, public affairs, KSAM television and radio services, Chaplain's Counseling and religious services, postal services and police services. Gompers' miniature City Hall keeps records, counsels crewmembers, enforces regulations, and who could forget Admin's participation of getting leave and various other request chits up and back down the chain of Command.

The engineroom is the only place you'll find M Division. Their iob is very simple. they move the ship. Simple to write but M Division personnel are specialists. Their knowledge is invaluable-for turning the valve wrong could mean disaster. Their hours are long and filled with the drumming of engines and uncomfortable heated atmosphere. M Division knows the job in the Engineroom. There is a crew of Dm personnel who trust in this fact. 'M 83 I ina l T' 5 -4 F, ,Li I I, E E I f l fx' as E i ng I , 3 I I ips If I WF..

Cake V4 Break, 50 C0 ,Mar NNNOCWC USS SAMUEL GOMPERS MA E RS Station was gpened on April 22, l98l while in transit to Diego arcla. The Chief MARS Operators were STGI Bradshaw and ETI Arnold. During Gompers' duty as on station tender at Diego Garcia, MARS patched numerous calls of various t YP95 to the United States for the crew and the ships I a ongside. Most calls were patched through East Coast gateways. MARS attempted 2 823 calls and com leted ' P l,857 calls. An excellent record considering busy lines, no answers and the fact the station shared frequencies with other ships out to sea using the same frequency. Much credit for getting the station together goes to CWO2 Steve Harris, Communications Dfficer, CWO2 Don Wakida, R-4 Division Officer. and station manager. STGI Johnny Bradshaw. CWO2 Wakida's R-4 Division provided a majority of the manpower utilized in organizing and assembling the station. Various individuals from Repair, Deck, Supply and other departments throughout the ship deserve a royal skinned knuckle award for their perseverence and the sacrifice of much of their own time working on the project. The operators of MARS did so voluntarily, after working their normal jobs, day or night. Each volunteer received many smiles of appreciation for the successful calls. Also each received a Letter of Appreciation from Gompers' Skipper. One more Thank You to the operators for their time and dedicationl Left picture: front row: Lt.

' ' ogistics is the lifeblood of any military organization. This critical function is the responsibility of the Supply Department. The more than 200 men and women of Supply - - take their jobs very seriously. Their work makes the ship more comfortable-clean clothes, a warm meal and putting a little jingle in GOMPERS' personnel's pockets are just a few of the regularly performed functions of Supply. The Supplies life-style of Service Supreme was upheld despite the difficult ports, such as Diego Garcia, in which to run a store, a warehouse, a bank, a bakery and a computer center. LCDR JAMES M.

The remote location of Diego Garcia further complicated the logistics pipeline, necessitating the resupply of staple items such as milk and fresh produce as well as high priority repair parts. Why the planes always landed at Diego Garcia at twelve midnight, we'll probably never know regardless of the arrival times. S-I with help from other Supply Divisions routed it on board with the assistance of Boats and Cranes. Once on board the material was enrouted to the requesting divisions or placed in stock.

The GOMPERS' Mess Management Specialist and associated occupations are handled by S-2 Division and S-5 CWardroomD Division. Over 3,500 meals are served daily. ln the absence of commercial outlets, chow became one of the most discussed items aboard ship. Trying to satisfy the different taste buds of a crew of over DOO men and women is a tough chore, however S-2 and S-5 Divisions personnel did a super job in the regards of nutrition and tasty meals. For most of the deployment we had fresh recombined mil most die-hard critics had to agree picnics and k. Even our that the fan-tail especially the decorated cakes were first cabin all t he way.

Disbursing Clerks set up hundreds of allotments, which enabled crew members to conveniently send money home or to pay bills. Twice monthly we remember the disbursing office, but every day the disbursing office has the crew in mind. They must manage the pay records of over IIN personnel. S-6 The Behind the Scenes efforts of the Computer Specialists were instrumental in our logistic support efforts. Keeping track of orders and inventories was capably handled by S-6. The ship's computer ran 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and GOMPERS' Computer Programmers accumulated an equal amount of time running them. DPC VIDAL, R. DPC TAYLOR, J.A. DPI BENEDICT, R.J.

At this time l would like to express my appreciation to the Cruise Book Staff, SN Mark Hazen, SN Yolanda Diaz, and SA Debra Nichols, for sharing their time and creativity. Why the Shoe Tree on this page? Well after all the running around whether it was from gathering information or running from the Editor, these boondockers and the little 'pup' inside can kick back and enjoy the feeling of success. Success in the three L's: Learning, Loving, and Living, which is what all things should revolve around. A very big THANK-YOU to those talented photographers onboard, who contributed their off- time pictures for the color section. Here's a deep and sincere THANK-YOU to the GOMPERS' Photographer's matesg PHI Newell Schultz, PH2 Willie Thomas, PH3 Brian Book, PH3 Wayne Campsmith, PH3 Vaughn Naegele, and SA Steve Groskurth, for their eye behind the camera, hours in the darkroom, and patience with the Editor. Thank-you lCl John Harrell for the beginning efforts on the Cruise Book and keeping my imagination youthful and in a natural state of euphoria. Last but definitely not least Lt. John Koritar, Cruise Book Advisor, for keeping the Cruise Book in the bounds of REALITY. Now to the Reader, I hope this book holds for you memories of a successful cruise.
