SfrCi( c ' . OK Seci at sda CHEMUNG approaches Pier Nine at dawn, 4 September 1966. Where have all the sailors gone? ;4c UMUed e0te U4 As author, designer, photographer, editor, and sales manager for this cruise book, I can hardly pass the buck for any short-comings. If it conveys some notion of the life of a fleet oiler and her crew in WESTPAC, I will feel satisfied. It is a pleasure to give credit where it is due. Much of the drafting, printing, and typing that went into the final layout and copy sheets was done by Kenneth Al. Jordan, SA. Teddie W. Adams, YN3, supplied many photographs, as did Bobby E. Jones, SN, and various members of B division. In addition to the external sources of pictures listed below, the Subic Bay Navy Exchange Photo Lab should be credited for all the group pictures. Finally, a word of thanks to the crew of CHEAIUNG for their financial support, their occasional advice, and their patience for what seemed an eternal labor. This book is, of course, really theirs.

(mtcuAand (MHCC On 20 August CHE.MUXG departed Yokosuka, Japan, on her voyage back to Long Beach, Ahead for her crew were two weeks of round-the-clock work in cleaning her cargo tanks in preparation for the forth-coming, long-needed overhaul. Our thoughts, of course, were pre -oc cupied with the prospect of seeing families and friends at home. There would be time enough in the future for reminiscing and evaluating our experience overseas — even for compiling cruise books. Some of us would stay with CHEAIUNG for her next cruise; others would go on to other duty assignments or return to civilian life. The ship and her crew would evolve with the passage of time, but our memories and pride in the achievements of the 1966 WESTPAC deployment would remain valid regardless. The basic elements of our experience--the ship and the sea, hard work and horseplay, the fleet and the Far East — do not change. i- J
