Anchoring Into FIRST DIVISIO During this deployment, First Division made over 500 boat runs with the 40' utility boat and the RHIB, and dropped and raised the an- chor 15 times in 6 different countries. First Division has issued over 1600 gallons of paint in our never-ending battle against rust and cor- rosion. In the war for cleanliness, First Division's Boatswain's Mates is- sued more than 55 gallons of spray and wipe general purpose cleaner, over 400 sponges, and more than 1500 rolls of toilet paper. First Division's contributions to the ship's mission took the form of the successful completion of more than 160 UNREPS, pumping more than 40 million gallons of fuel, and transferring more than 1000 pal- lets of mail and cargo. Busy on the flight deck, First Division ensured the safety of more than 270 landings or touch-n-go's . Between nu- merous and various ship's evolutions, First Division manned watches around the clock on the bridge as well as manning the gun and mine watches while CIMARRON's mission took her through the Persian Ciulf. After a deployment of working hard and playing hard, First Division is ready to head toward home!

Millions of gallons of paint and fuel, as well as a million pounds of bombs passed through the hands of the C1unner's and Boatswain's Mates during this deployment.
