17 March. Stopped offloading long enough to get underway and rendezvous with an oiler at sea. It was the first opportunity we had to fuel in 35 days. After fueling, we returned to the beach site and continued to off-load. Dur ing this period the Boat Group assisted the Seabees, Detachment C, ACB-1 in establish ing a causeway upon which LST's could dis- charge their cargo. The Boat Group also off loaded an Army Combat Engineer battalion from the Sea Train Carolina, while our own engineers repaired warping tugs and LCM pusher boats for the Seabees. X X
