LTJG J. D. Cline C OM MUNICATIONS OFFICER LTJG L.A. Deangelis ASST. COMMUNICATIONS OFFICER MMuNlcATloNs DE ARTME Navymen in sleek modern ships are often surprised to learn that the twenty - five year old CHILTON boasts sophisticated and powerful communications facilities equalled by very few ships in the fleet. The task of operating this com- plex package falls to the Communications Depart- ment under LTJG John Cline. The record of CHILTON's Comm personnel is an enviable one. Their performance has earned praise from many who have benefited from CHILTON's services. In addition to signaling, handling radio teletype trafficand CW messages,Communications personnel maintain their equipment, route operational messages, and operate as a relay station for other commands. During one recent operation, CHILTON relayed for sixteen different ships at one time, including the flagship of the Sixth Fleet Commander. Rad fc Rmm Rad IQ fl.
