PERSONNEL HIGH LINE TRANSFER This section is primarily for the interest of those to whom this book is dedicated. This section on OPERATIONS will show some of the all hands evolutions which occur frequently on board a destroyer underway. Such things as personnel high line transfers, refueling operations, recovery and rescue type operations to fall into the everyday course of events for a destroyer at sea, No matter how often they recur, everyone must remain constantly alert to the omnipresent challenge of the sea. The men on deck handling lines must be on the lookout for large swells which could send the ship lurching and cause men to go over the side or for waves breaking around and about them. The conning of- ficer must be similarly respectful of the sea as he makes his approach alongside another ship lest the sea send his ship careening into the other vessel. Smooth-working operations call for teamwork and this is the result of train- ing and experience--two things which all' who made this cruise can boast of possessing. M .
