In December 1958 CHIKASKIA was put into the Reserve Maritime Fleet, at Beaumont, Texas. She was returned to the Navy in September 1960 for reactivation as a fleet oiler and assignment to Commander Service Force, U. S. Atlantic Fleet. CHIKASKIA was recommis- sioned at Baltimore, Maryland 17 September 1960, Cap- tain L. W. Mather, USN in command. Since recommissioning, CHIKASKIA spent her first year operating in support of units of the U.S. Second Fleet and Project Mercury. From February until late August 1962, CHIKASKIA was deployed with the Sixth Fleet in the Mediterranean. Returning to duty with the Second Fleet, she went almost immediately to the Florida Straits for several weeks of operations. On her way back to Norfolk, her home port, the creation of the Cuban Quarantine resulted in her being sent immediately back to the Caribbean area, where she refueled ships on the Quarantine line. During this period she served not only as an oiler, but also as a supply and transport ship by taking over one hundred tons of supplies and two hundred men from Jacksonville to ships operating in the Quarantine. ln the winter of 1963, CHIKASKIA participated in Operation Springboard, an annual training event in the Caribbean, visiting Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and the island tof1Agsba, off the Venezuelan Coast. The fall of 1963 saw CHIKI N,SKlA once again heading forithe terranean, where sh' deployed fo' mqE.3tl,.i',JuxntilAnhgar return to Norfolk fr. .ly 19641. 1.1: the fall of 1965 she participated in Opera- . an Teamworl a NATO exercise off the coast of northern Europe, visi ing Scotlafnfdi and Hol- land. ln the winter and early springiof 1965, CHIKASKIA 'again participated in Operation Springboard, and visited San Juan and 'Roosevelt Roads in Puerto Rico.,and' Saint Thomas inthe: Virgin islands. In May 1965 C':llKA:3KlA left Norfolk' for herhthirdgMed fieployment'x.-Ence recom- missioning, and returned Wfilovernber 19:65 after a highly successful tour of wiffh the U. S. Sixth Fleet, and setting several refueling records. After a period of upkeep and duty oiler assignments CHIKASKIA deployed to the Caribbean in March to take part in Operation Springboard 66. During this'deployment CHIKASKIA refueled many of theparticipating 'ships while taking advantage of the training opportunities associated with Springboard. Dur- ing May and half of June CHIKASKIA deployed in the SUDDOFT Of, the space effort as she participated in the GEMINI 9xMissi,on, taking station in the Atlantic under the operational control of CTF 140. During the summer of 1966 CHIKASKIA was duty oiler and supported vari- ous units of theSecond Fleet. ln September CHIKASKIA refueled th?

After three weeks of post-overhaul load-out and ex- tensllfe training CHlKASlQlA.departed for three weeks of Refresher Training under thei' operational control of Com- mander Fleet Training Group, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Shortly after returning to the States, CHIKASKIA went alongside the USS AMPHION lAR-131 for a tender period prior to her June 9th departure for the Mediterranean and duty with the Sixth Fleet. One of the most exciting events of the cruise occurred on the 23rd of November when the ship got underway from Malaga, Spain, leaving a 73 man liberty and shore patrol party stranded because heavy seas had canceled boating. The ship refueled a carrier task force in 20-35 foot seas with many key personnel strand- ed in Malaga. Upon completion of the refcleling-the ship returned to Malaga, picked up the remainder of the crew, stopped briefly in -Rota,-Spain for a fuel liftfand returned to Norfolk, Virginia on the 7th of Decembei' after battling her way through 30-40 foot seas the last six'days of the Atlantic .tri-'gsit,.! it Mg., I I, , Q12 K .9 ' .2 ,-.. - V, 3 V' gf' .slew H15 ...rigs '- ,.. - . - 1-F .i 1 '.- .N N MQ' AI1 I-Vi 1- 1 -sg, .1 1 an-I vfflwli 11 L l -Q W WWKYQ ' X?
