The ships of Battle Group Bravo are here: AnriETAM is with us, and PilMITZ, as well as the STODDERT, BARBEY, and the WADDELL. At the Nan-Of-War anchorage in old Singapore, our keel anchor rests on this wet harbor s floor. The bottom consists of mud and of shell. Katong ' s Clock Tower is striking her bell. On deck we have si.xty fathoms of chain, we could put out some more, but there s nothing to gain. In fifty-one feet of water our keel it does soak, our material condition? Of course it is Yoke- condition of readiness well set at four. As the new Year comes in CALlEORPilA ' s front door. At a bearing of 273 South Kallang, and the crew ashore sends 88 out with a bang. The gyro points to 116 to timor, with COMCARGRU SEVEn as SOrA (AStlORE). At normal T-AVE, ' 2 reactor on line, 2A, B and C turbine generators are running fine. Our 1 reactor is resting her core; steam plants are split while the engineers snore. Instead of at anchor, I wish we moored close to a pier, with a camel inboard. Tides will be high on through the night; with our anchor lights all burning bright. Eire pumps 2, 4, 5, 6 on the line, 1 and 5 are in standby -Just biding their time. The CO. and crew are all out on the beach. 1989 is within easy reach. USnAVOEE Singapore is SOPA ADMIH; but see the Command Duty Officer is staring at me. Warrant Officer Cannon is our CDO. tie likes a tight watch an alert one; and so now I must stop this rhyming and stand my watch well. All the boats are aboard as I strike midnight s last bell. And now that Tve ended, this entry must cease; HAPPY nEW YEAR TO ALL - NAY WE ALL LIVE in PEACE.
