COLUMBUS (CA-74) FAR EASTERN MISSION 5 January— 9 July 1956 Three ships in the history of the U.S. Navy have borne the illustrious name, Columbus. The first was a brig of the Continental Navy, the second was a ship of the line commis- sioned in 1819: both of these were named after Christopher Columbus. The third ship, the heavy cruiser U.S.S. Columbus, (CA-74), was commissioned at Boston, Massachusetts on 8 June 1945, and was named after the capital city of Ohio. The war ended before the Columbus had ccmpleted her shakedown and refresher cruise in the Caribbean, but in December of 1945 the sleek new lady headed west for duty with the Seventh Fleet. During her initial trip to the Far East the Columbus visited Pearl Harbor, Okinawa, Tsingtao, Shang- hai, Yokosuka and Sasebo, and took part in Operation Road ' s End , the sinking of 24 captured Japanese subs. Barely three years later the Columbus switched coasts once more and in September of 1948 joined the U.S. Sixth Fleet in the Mediterranean as flagship. During her assignment there she visited Norway, Denmark, Germany, Holland, Belgium, France, Portugal and England, and received many distinguished guests on board, including King Paul and Queen Fredericka of Greece, Prince Bernhardt of Holland and the late King George VI of Great Britain. Two years later the Columbus set out on her longest cruise to date, a fifteen month marathon as flagship to Admiral Robert B. Carney. During that cruise, which spanned 1950 and 1951, the Columbus visited an astounding 55 ports in 18 different countries and possessions. The following year saw the Columbus headed back to the Med, this time via the Arctic Circle in conjunction with the NATO exercise, Mainbrace Visits to Scotland, Norway and the customary European and African ports highlighted this Columbus cruise, and during her stay in Norway the ship received Crown Prince Olaf on board. After her subsequent yard period and refresher training, Columbus returned for another Med cruise, which lasted from September 1954 till the end of January 1955. Then, on 8 November 1955, she sailed from Boston and, after passing through the Panama Canal, headed south for Peru to participate in joint American-Peruvian naval maneuvers. Rear Admiral Thomas M. Stokes, Commander Cruiser-Destroyer Force, U.S. Pacific Fleet, brought his flag on board during this abbreviated good-will visit south of the equator, upon completion of which the Columbus sailed north to her new home port of Long Beach, California. pearl harbor yokosuko two iima buckner bay hong kong subic bay zamboanga manila nagasaki sasebo port s we ff en ham penang 7 00... Captain George C. Seay, USN, Commanding Officer of the USS Columbus, graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy with the Class of 1930, and served aboard battleships, destroyers and an ammunition ship until mid-1937. From 1940 to 1942 he served aboard the destroyer USS Niblack, leaving to assume command of the USS Broome. In 1943 he reported to Commander Destroyer Forces U. S. Atlantic Fleet as Damage Control and Engineering Officer. It was while he commanded the USS Bryant, a destroyer, that he was awarded the Silver Star for distinguishing himself in action during a Kamikaze attack off Okinawa in the last months of the war. In 1952 he took command of the attack transport USS Cambria and from there left to take over as head of the Fleet Operations Planning Branch, Fleet Operations Division of the Office of Naval Operations. Captain Seay assumed command of the Columbus on 10 February 1956 in Yokosuka, Japan. (?afi£. (pevtfe @. Seatf ( . ?%a tcU $. ?tfffi4tnicA 76e £xec . , , Commander Francis J. Fitzpatrick, USN, graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1939. His first duty station was the USS Mexico (BB 40), in which he served for four years. In July 1944 he was promoted to Lieutenant Commander, and shortly thereafter reported to the USS Alabama (BB 60). In 1949 Commander Fitzpatrick was promoted to his present rank. From 1951 to 1953 he served as Commanding Officer of the USS A.J. Isbell (DD 869). Commander Fitzpatrick reported aboard Columbus before the ship left Long Beach and relieved Commander Fridmore as Executive Officer on 12 January 1956. Among his awards are included the Bronze Star Medal with combat V , the Korean Service Medal with two stars, and several other campaign ribbons. Captain J. Donald L. Grant, USN, former Com- manding Officer of the Columbus, graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy with the Class of 1930. He served aboard pre-World War II battleships, cruisers and destroyers and was at Pearl Harbor during the Japanese attack. In 1942 he survived the torpedoing of the carrier Saratoga off Johnston Island and later that year was assigned to assist in the organization of Allied Naval Forces, South West Pacific. From 1944 to 1945 he was Navigator and Operations Officer of the (then) new large cruiser USS Alaska, and saw action in the strikes on Tokyo, Okinawa and Iwo Jima. Near the end of 1945 he became Alaska ' s Executive Officer. Since the war Captain Grant has served in various sea and shore billets, and was Chief of Staff Officer for CINCNELM Subordinate Command at Naples when ordered to take command of Columbus at Izmir, Turkey on 18 November 1954. He was relieved by Captain Seay on 10 February 1956. Lpt. $. Z . . tyuUtt @eOi. flcUK i- s4. ' Piidmate Commander James A. Pridmore, USN, former Executive Officer of the USS Columbus, is an alumnus of the U.S. Naval Academy, Class of 1937. When World War II broke out he was serving at Manila. He participated in the Pacific battles in the Java Sea, and the later assault on the Philip- pines. He served as Commanding Officer of the destroyers Williamson and O ' Bannon during the period 1943-1946. More recently, he took part in the Korean conflict. Upon completion of a tour of duty in the Bureau of Ordnance, from November 1951 to January 1955, Commander Pridmore reported aboard the Columbus on 9 February 1955, and was relieved by Commander Fitzpatrick on 12 January 1956. Rear Admiral Francis D. McCorkle, USN, Com- mander Cruiser Division Three, is a native of Tennessee and was graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1926. After graduation he first served in the USS New Mexico and the USS Preble. In 1941 Rear Admiral McCorkle assumed command of the destroyer USS Simpson, carrying out escort operations in the North Atlantic. A phase of this duty included the historic Churchill-Roosevelt meeting at Argentia, Newfoundland. On 5 May 1942 he assumed command of the new destroyer, USS Tillman, and participated in the North African and Sicilian invasions, during which Tillman was credited with the sinking of a French corvette and the capture of three French merchant ships. Transferring to the Pacific in January 1945, he took command of Destroyer Squadron Five in the Seventh Fleet, and after the war he participated in the occupation of Japan and the demilitarization of Japanese naval and merchant ships in the Sasebo-Nagasaki area. After commanding the AKA, USS Vermillion, and a tour as Department Head at the Naval Academy, Admiral McCorkle was named Captain of the USS New Jersey, which was in the Far East in support of military operations in Korea. On 21 June 1955 he asssumed command of Cruiser Division Three, US Pacific Fleet, consisting of the Helena, Toledo, and Pittsburgh. Since that time the Columbus has replaced the Pittsburgh, and the Worcester has joined the division. In June 1956 Rear Admiral McCorkle left CruDivThree for duty in Washington. (Zafit, enttand rf. Smit Captain Bernard A. Smith, USN, Chief of Staff, Cruiser Division Three, was appointed to the U.S. Naval Academy from Spokane, Washington. Following his graduation from the Academy in 1934 he served for five years in the USS Minneapolis and one year in the four stack destroyer Southard. World War II service included duty in the USS Lexington, USS Saratoga, and as Commanding Officer of destroyer Murphy. Following the war he placed the destroyer Ozbourn in commission and remained on board as her Commanding Officer for two years. During the Korean War he served as Commander Escort Squadron Eleven. Immediately prior to reporting for his present duty in July 1955 Captain Smith served in Wash- ington for two years as Head Enlisted Distribution Branch, Bureau of Naval Personnel, and for one year as a student at the National War College. 5: ! £o ta £ eac After a month at sea, a trip through the Panama locks, a lightning good-will visit to the Land of the Incas and a painful initiation into the mysteries of Shellbackdom, we arrived at our new home port, Long Beach, California. Our first days were spent exploring the town: the married men had their hands full resettling their families; the bachelors had their hands full convincing the local female population that men brought up on a diet of Boston baked beans were the world ' s best lovers. We were fascinated by the thousands of oil wells around town that looked like prehistoric birds bobbing endlessly up and down, pumping money into somebody ' s pocket. We checked our own pockets, found it wasn ' t going into them, and, as usual, sweated out payday. Two paydays came and went; the green stuff they hand out on paydays came and went; Santa came and went; Old Man Nineteen Fifty Five just plain went, wetted down with a generous sprinkling of sundry brews; the new babe, Nineteen Fifty Six, arrived and when he was five days old we kissed our wives and sweethearts goodbye and cast off all lines. Pearl, Japan and six months in the broad blue Pacific lay ahead. A long mission. And, we hoped, an interesting and worthwhile one. Just before Christmas Santa and Linda came to wow the Columbus kids Escorted by Mr. PIO, welcomed by four sidegirls, Miss Christian was piped aboard Back on the fantail, Linda autographed while Santa distributed presents The duty sections got some Xmas and New Year ' s entertainment Keep your feetdr y Good-bye Long Beach, Aloha Hawaii Go West, young man, Horace Greeley had said. CNO concurred; so West we went . . . (Doctor, pass me the dramamine) ■ HAWAII Even after only a week at sea, the lush tropical island of Oahu rising out of the Pacific was a welcome sight. Just seven short days before the Columbus had sailed from Long Beach, leaving wives, families and sweethearts behind, to plunge into the midst of high pressure fleet operations while steaming to the explosive area of the Far East. Oahu, the main island of the Hawaiian group, with Diamond Head looming clear and sharp over Waikiki Beach, with Hono- lulu and Pearl Harbor, was the big break in a long trip across the winter Pacific. And a most welcome stop it was, in spite of the rain and lack of Hula girls to greet us on the pier. Although pay day had been long gone and the next one not close enough to be of benefit in Hawaii, no one could stop the East Coast sailors of the Columbus from seeing the sights of the semi-tropical island. Although our stay was brief, only two days, it was the the refresher needed to start us out on the l-o-n-g trek to Japan. But as Diamond Head dropped astern, Hawaii was gone but not forgotten. In six months ' time we would stop in again, this time for a brief reindoctrination prior to our return to the States.

Any pert would be welcome, and we found it a little im- possible to beli ve the fabulous reports of the warm reception awaiting us in Yokosuka. It was a relief to see the d rk green shores of Japan beckoning to us as we steamed up Tokyo Bay. And going ashore, we found that our reports were 100 ,, correct. What impressed us most was the friendliness of the people ar.d their eagerness to please. We walked and gawked at the gals in kimoncs and the houses with pagoda roofs that shone in the rain; the language was like nothing we had ever heard before, but everyone learned a few words, even if if was only baby-san . The week of ISE after our first four days in Yokosuka only made us more anxious to return. And when we did, for a full week, we had an opportunity to spread out and see some more of this fascinating country. But all good things (Yokosuka was the best we ' d hit in a long time) pass quickly. As we sailed again down Tokyo Bay, however, we knew that our sayonara was only temporary, that in three months ' time we ' d be back to this compact island paradise. So this is Japan !

For the Admiral ' s reception held on Sunday, 29 April, the Columbus foc ' s ' le was graced with scores of ovely, kimono-clad ladies, whose interest in the ship was equalled only by our interest in their shy beauty and richly colored dress. Nagasaki street scene Now shift into the clean Kimono of the day The governor ' s wife cuts the cake SaMJ a Since fhe end of the war Sasebo, the westernmost city in Japan, has been one of the two major U. S. Naval bases in this country. Relatively unimportant as a commercial port, Sasebo has had a checkered career, her fortunes rising and falling according to the fluctuations of naval activity. With American activity there reduced and Japa- nese naval strength at present small, Sasebo is once again reduced to relative obscurity. But its well-protected inner harbor, considered one of the best typhoon shelters in the Far East, and its ex- cellent port facilities indicate that, with Japanese production and overseas trade increasing every year, Sasebo may well reawaken in the not too distant future.

Too short a time to explore fully the mysteries and beauties of the neat, colorful and often enchanting country, this fleeting month nevertheless gave us a chance to see why so many Americans have become Japan-o-philes since the end of the war. For the Japanese won us over not only by their overt friendliness, but also by the quality of their goods — their cameras and binoculars and chinaware and textiles — which we bought and brought back on board in such quantity that working parties had to be called away to handle the piles of crated treasures.

Just eleven years after the original Iwo Jima invasion marine assault troops once more landed on the rocky, ashen beach and climbed to the top of Mount Suribachi, famed symbol of World War II. The exercise, labelled by the Communists as a world threat, employed tactics that had been learned in wartime maneuvers.

Buckner Bay ! Our brief sojourn at the lower, uninhabited end of Okinawa made us feel as though we were discovering a new island, although in reality the island contained several good-sized American cities. The two most popular spots at Buckner, however, were the EM and Officers ' clubs, both of which were a two minute walk from the landing. A few hardy explorers ventured inland as far as the capital city, Naha, but most explorations of any scale were hindered by the heavy rain and high seas, which made boating dangerous and caused liberty to be cancelled during a good part of our stay. Thus none of us was particularly sorry to leave or happy at the thought that our schedule called for a return trip in early June. Wooden shoes were much in evidence O ivtaoua Naha laborers take five a crowded harbor of sampans and junks . . . wealthy hotels and abject poverty . . . rickshaws and rolls royces . . . We had been told that Hong Kong was the place to buy, buy and buy more. The prices on the clothing, cameras, jewelry, luggage, — everything imaginable — were so irresistibly low that we couldn ' t afford to pass them up. So we bought, and at the end of our stay in Hong Kong our pockets were empty, our lockers full, and the shi p ' s draft had been increased two feet. But bargain prices were not all Hong Kong had to offer. The strange and interesting sights were a photographer ' s dream. The harbor was one of the most beautiful in the world. From the top of Victoria Peak, which we scaled by the cable car Peak Tram, the city of Hong Kong lay at our feet, Kowloon stretched across into the New Territories and the border, and the Columbus was just another dot in the harbor. The Egg People , who spend all their lives in tiny sampans rolling to and fro on the waves of Aberdeen Harbor, the garish Tiger Balm Gardens, the refugee huts, and the wealthy homes on the tops of the hills made up a picture of bright colors and sharp contrasts that we would long remember. TIGER BALM GARDENS The Tiger Balm Gardens : a fabul- ous complex of color and grotesque statuary, built by Mr. Aw Boon Haw, a Chinese millionaire who made his fortune selling an equally fabulous patent medicine known as Tiger Balm . To quote the Tiger Balm Garden Booklet published by Mr. Kwok Lok Man, this medicine is the sure cure for Cough, Cold, Headache, Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Gout, Sciatica, Lumbago, Sore-Throat, Toothache, Asthma, Scorpion and other insect bites and stings, cuts, cramps, and all chest complaints.

We adapted ourselves to the new tropical hours and, while the collision Inquiry proceed- ed and repairs were made to our bow, we headed for Driftwood Beach or the pool for a cooling swin.

But for those hardy souls who ventured out to the stilt-built, thatched-roof Moro village, a mere ten minutes from Zamboanga proper, a rewarding insight into a culture utterly different from anything we had ever seen was to be had.

The Federation of Malaya is a peninsula of 50,690 square miles, about 80 o of which lies under primeval jungle, mountain or swamp. Living in the jungle areas are several tribes of nomadic aboriginals, whose way of life is utterly primitive. Efforts are presently being made to reclaim parts of the swampland, and in many areas Malayans who formerly eked out a bare existence trying to grow rice in patchy plots across rank jungle swamps, now live in thriving communities, their former hovels having been abandoned for more permanent — and more comfortable -homes.

The basketballers ' only two defeats were by one point and seven point margins, one of the softballers ' two defeats was a 1-0 affair, while the tennismen racked up four impressive wins in as many matches. But perhaps the most successful sports undertaking of the cruise was the inter-divisional softball tournament, which Ol division, after some bitter struggles, won handily by defeating Fourth division in the finals, 15-5.

LTJG Davison ENS Rutledge The First division has cognizance over the starboard side of the forecastle and the quarterdeck area. Here W. W. Schmidt, BM1, reigns supreme, with the aid of Buford, BM1, and Press, BM3. The main purpose of our divisional organization is to insure an efficient manning of the guns. Under the watchful eye of Chief Rourke and San Felice, GM1, Turret One has established a new high in smartness and its ability to bring the guns to bear. Shelton, GM2, a veteran in main battery, has done much to establish this excellence. The First division also has an impressive record in athletics: Austin, GM3, is captain of the Softball team, Ruskin and Moore are hardcourt standouts, Burrell and Anderson shine on the gridiron, and Savage had quite a reputation in AAU swimming circles before entering the Navy. The heated rivalry with the Second division for the Forecastle Crown continues. The First also boasts one of the highest percentages of high school graduates on the ship. This has been achieved through a strong emphasis on GED tests as a means of completion of high school credit. Nor is experience lacking within the division. LTJG Davison, the Division Officer, has more time aboard the Columbus than any other commissioned officer. He is ably assisted by ENS Rutledge. It ' s the personnel that really make the divison outstanding. Chief Rourke was one of seventy-five survivors of the U.S.S. Arizona on 7 December 1941. Later he received the Bronze Star for action on a submarine in the Pacific. The division is also distinctive in having two petty officers from Canada : Schmidt, BM1, and Coder, BM3, are representing our neighbors well by holding down positions of leadership in the United States Navy. And San Felice, GM1, as he so humbly puts it, has squared away every turret on this ship. His conscientious and thorough work earned him a meritorious mast.

When the Second division turns to on the port side of the forecastle, you can hear Creeger ' s whip cracking all the way back on the fantail. Campbell, BM2, is the strong boss topside, and what he doesn ' t know about seamo would almost fit on the point of a needle. Bailey, BM3, is another good man with a line and helps keep the boys turned to. The second deck is in the able hands of Jones, BM2. Besides making sure that officers ' country forward of the wardroom is spotless, he ' s a good man under the backboards on the Columbus basketball team. Way down on the fourth deck there works a portly gentleman named Veneziano, who is in charge of the House Beautiful boys, otherwise known as compartment cleaners. This is where people come to see how a compartment should really look. In the middle of all this deck space there towers a huge steel castle, commonly referred to as Turret II, where Prince Charming, alias Chief Knutson, and his little elves make merry. Busch, GM2, is the Ichi-ban elf in charge of making the 8 inch guns work. He gets a lot of help from Basco, GM3, and Goodman, GM3.

LTJG Hatfield ENS Blumberg The Fighting Fourth , as the division is known to the men, is one of the hardest working divisions on board. And there have been times when it is claimed that no one works more than they do. Led by LTJG Hatfield and ENS Blumberg, the Fourth sets a standard midships that the Fifth can never approach. Crawford, BM2, is lord and master of the deck hands in the division, while Graham, GM1, is top dog of the cannon cockers. These two slave dri er, that is, leaders, keep the boys on the go all day long. Fourth division spaces include the very important Admiral ' s country, which must be kept immaculate, and the port midship quarterdecks. Crawford is assisted in his job by Porter, White, Simmons and Loftin, all BM3 ' s. The division ' s gunnery spaces are the forward five inch mounts, which at this writing are covered with E ' s and hashmarks. Graham ' s three mount captains are McGuire, GM2, Luczkowski, GM3, and Bodenschatz, GM3. The division is not wholly concerned with work, however. Several of the men take the record as Liberty Hounds for the ship, and it is claimed that some of the Navy ' s greatest lovers are hidden in its ranks. Man in a hole Rigging quarterdeck awnings Check the hashmark SIMULATED SIMULATION LTJG Harrington ENS Cooke Let that tremendous clatter amidships arrest you for a minute. You will find Greer, GM1, stop watch in hand, critically overseeing frenzied but well ordered activity : Mount 54 ' s loading crew is taking its turn trying to better the standard of 20 rounds per minute. Fifth division, which takes first pride in its ability to shoot well and in the mechanical readiness of its three 5 mounts, is holding loading drill. Taylor, GM3, Captain of Mount 54, Maxwell, GM2, of Mount 55, and Rose, GM3, of Mount 56, are excellent friends — as long as the question is not raised as to which mount is best. Lisle, BM1, L.P.O., has his three ring circus main deck amidships starboard side — and at least enough awnings to rig to cover three side shows. Trapeze artists have their act rigging the starboard accommodation ladder. Calkins, BM2, Greer, BM2 and Brinsfield, BM3, are on hand rigging in (or out) the starboard lifeboat or the fueling hose. Or the division may be handling hose from a tanker ; the hose is broken ; oil spatters on the teak of the 01 level. Goad, BM3, already has his boys turning to before the First Lieutenant can turn around. He also has the sun porch and rafters — the 05 and 06 levels forward- to keep up. Fifth division is responsible for the starboard quarterdeck and also for that steel jungle of 3 gun tub and shell cages over it. Mistishin, BM3, and his boys clean that Wall Street thoroughfare, the second deck starboard passageway on which the ship ' s offices face, and Ayers, BM2, P.

LTJG Kelley Let her rip The Mighty Sixth, led by LTJG Master of Ceremonies Kelley, is composed of both gunner ' s mates and boatswain ' s mates. Of the latter, some thirteen men, about a quarter of the division, take care of the topside from frames 90 to 127. You think the Engineers can fuel at sea all by themselves ? Not until our boys have rigged fueling hoses and made sure they ' ve reached their goal, ready for coupling. We also rig the boatbooms when necessary and, naturally, do the painting, clean the decks and take care of any other job that belongs to the category of seamanship in our assigned area. We ' ve also got four men back in the hangar deck keeping the Captain ' s gig and one of the thirty foot motor launches in shape. As for the gunner ' s mates, they have five 3 50 mounts, five handling rooms and two magazines to care for, and it ' s said that none are better cared for anywhere on the ship. The boys now have their eyes trained on the target of regaining the E ' s we once had and, through some slip of fate, unfortunately lost. LTJG Dick ENS Buzzard When the Columbus steams into port, the E ' s on her five starboard 3 50 mounts always attract the attention of other ships and personnel present. If E ' s were given for the condition of the Officer ' s Motor Boat and the area between frames 93 and 127, the Seventh division would have them there too. For it is the desire of the men in the Seventh to be the division aboard with the sharpest looking spaces, the best softball team, the finest guns, and the prettiest girls on the beach. Ahrens, BM1, and Ubl, GM1, handle the deck force and gun gang respectively. Their job is made easier because they have the willing and able support of the men under them. With men like Smokey Blandford keeping the compartment one of the best looking aboard ship, Graves and Lamb two of the best coxswains aboard, Stanfill keeping the gear locker in good order, and Rosell and Lasnier caring for their mounts as though they were a second home, the Seventh has the reputation of being one of the best divisions afloat.

Hess 1st LT Delcuze Since November 10, 1775, Marines have served aboard armed vessels of the Navy. Today one of the missions of the Marine Corps, as defined by law, is to continue in this historic function. Marine Detachments form a separate division within the organization of the Gunnery Department on all major combatant vessels. Although these Marines are an integral part of the ship ' s complement, the functions of supply, administration and personnel are separate from those of the ship. The mission of Marine Detachments afloat is to provide the ships with a unit organized, trained and equipped for operations ashore, man a part of the ship ' s armament and provide the ship with a specialized force for maintaining security. In order to discharge its responsibilities properly, the Marine Detachment must maintain three separate organizations, with an intensive training program for each. These training pr ograms are designed to provide the individual Marine with the requisite know how for each task he is expected to perform. Each Marine is required to be proficient as an infantryman, as a member of a gun crew, and must also carry out his duties as a part of the security team. In addition, Marines do the normal housekeeping chores which keep the ship and their own spaces in top condition. On his own time the Marine maintains his uniforms and equipment at the peak level which is required of a Seagoing Marine . He must have his honors uniforms ready at an instant ' s notice. The Seagoing Marine aboard the USS Columbus carries on the 181 year old tradition of outstanding service with the fleet. What ' s up, Sarge ?

Some of the credit should be heaped upon the Yeomen in the Gunnery Office who are constantly fighting the never ending stacks of paperwork necessary to keep the Gunnery Department running smoothly.

LT Wilson LTJG Heimerl LTJG Volk Operations Intelligence is the name of our division, commonly known as the radar gang. Led by our L.P.O., McGreevy, we have the job of keeping the bridge up to date on the whole tactical picture. We control friendly aircraft, keep track of enemy aircraft, and keep a plot of all ships in the formation. It is also our duty to work out solutions for changes of station. Our home is CIC (Combat Information Center) where, with Pettyjohn, Eichenlaub, DRT Smith and Waugaman as section leaders, we keep up a surface, air and voice communications picture. Every radar man is able to do any job in CIC, plus his collateral duties. McHugh and Whiting take care of the publications ; Menard and Kingery are the chart men. Schwaugler is the divisional yeoman, Rothe is th e police petty officer, LaFontaine is in charge of preventive maintenance, and Tucker is the man in charge of ECM. Our spaces are always shipshape because of a Southerner named Arnold, a shadow named Stewart, Farmer Meyer, Rebel Conner, Vincent, and Borre. Brownfield is our Boatswain, and working with him are Lake, Woodward, Pruett, and I ' ve got too much to do now Backus. Moose Matusz, Alonso, and Gadbois, although mentioned last in these few words, arc themselves never lost for words. LTJG Chechik LTJG Simler Four decks below in Radio One, where sunlight and fresh air are merely words, may be found at any time men of the OR division. Twenty-four hours a day throughout the year they are on watch, linking the Columbus with the rest of the world. Not only concerned with official messages, they insure the safe and confidential receipt and delivery of hundreds of personal telegrams between Columbus personnel and their families. While underway they insure that sufficient news is obtained to permit publication of a daily newspaper, keeping the ship up to date on the world news. Moreover, the OR Division is responsible for what is probably, outside of field days, the greatest source of enjoyment— the mail. Neither wind nor rain, nor rolling or pitching keeps the Columbus mailman from making his appointed rounds. With all its duties the OR division still manages to indulge in wholesome forms of recreation ashore, mainly athletics and sightseeing. Our men have acted as ambassadors of good will throughout the world and have on this cruise particularly endeared themselves to the people of Japan. All in all, it would seem that OR division is a well rounded group of individuals and, in some individual cases, it is very well rounded indeed. LTJG Sakal LTJG Hunt FRONT KOW : Hope, .1.

It is their performance with visual communi- cations and tactical flaghoists which exhibits for the fleet the skill, discipline, and training of their particular ship. The OS division aboard the Columbus is proud to operate the best signal bridge in the Pacific Fleet. These men are especially proud because they have done this with minimum numbers. During this Far Eastern cruise the 15 men of the signal gang have stood 12 hours of watch per day, and performed the upkeep duties of the bridge during their free time. As testimony to their excellence, RADM McCorkle wrote in a letter to CAPT Grant, For many years I have looked for a pre-war signal bridge, and at last I have found one. The OS division exhibits its caliber and spirit in many ways. First, it has an excellent training program. Second, it is invariably one of the most squared-away divisions at personnel inspection. Third, its conduct record is excellent. These are only the most tangible exhibits of the OS division ' s spirit and class. It is actually easier to notice the spirit while the ship is operating. An observer becomes caught up in the competitive spirit, where each signalman works rapidly trying to haul down a flag hoist before other ships, or where signalmen concentrate intently catching each word as it is sent by flashing light. Hy this bridge other ships judge the Columbus. It is therefore evident why the Columbus crew is so proud of her signal gang, and why OS division takes great pride in its work.

Dexter Alfa division ' s Machinist Mates, Enginemen and Machinery Repairmen are divided into five gangs: machine shop, diesel, steam heat, refrigeration and transportation. The division is under the leadership of LTJG Carl F. Burnett and his able assistants, LTJG L.I. Nasife, Jr. Division Officer, CWO R. R. Dexter, Materiel Officer, and Chief G. B. Harrison. D. A. Voigt, MR2, is the guiding hand of the machine shop. The machine shop may be called on to repair any item, from a main feed pump to a microscope in the sick bay. Voigt is assisted by D. Agnello, MR3, P. R. Zimmerman, MR3, and several other capable men. Day or night one can find much activity in this, the Can Do machine shop. The tool crib, located in the machine shop, is well stocked and supplies tools for both the engineering department and the rest of the ship. W. A. Reid, EN2, and his diesel gang have the responsibility of keeping all the boat engines in operation. The boat engine repairmen have encountered much difficulty keeping those liberty launches running. In addi- tion to the boat engines they also have the task of keeping the forward and after diesels, which supply emergency electrical power for the ship, in perfect operating order. The steam heat gang, under the leadership of F. H. Wick, MM2, can be seen anywhere from stem to stern, busily maintaining the machinery in the galley and laundry, besides the steering gear, anchor windlass and the ship ' s heating system. J. F. Becker, MM2, and his refrigeration gang are responsible for the refrigerators, air conditioners, ice machines, scuttlebutts and the geedunk stand. The vehicles, also an A division responsibility, are kept in A-l mechanical condition by A. (Gumpy) Godialis, who is a most able repairman. One of Alfa ' s pride and joys is its education and training program, handled by II. Einspruch, MR1. The job of keeping the men of the division in line belongs to Chief Harrison and J. P. Stout, MM1. 3  ) LTJG Gundersen CWO L.K. Mumford For Bravo division much of this cruise has been hard, grueling work, but there have been many satisfying moments in completing necessary work, visiting intriguing Asiatic ports, and remembering that before long we will be returning once again to our families and friends. Bravo division normally is the second largest on board the Columbus, but during this cruise the men have often doubled up on their responsibilities and work, for there were times when we were as many as fourteen men below the allowance of seventy two. Underway during normal steaming the Boiler Gang stands a luxurious one-in-three watch, under working conditions that perpetually find the temperature well over the century mark. When operational commitments require the big push from the Columbus, with speeds exceeding twenty-seven knots, two more boilers are immediately lit off and Bravo digs in for a rigorous four-on, four-off watch set up. In port, auxiliary steaming finds Bravo division busier than ever as the duty section is often forced to stand port and starboard watches while the rest of the division, under the direction of Flash Hendricks, keeps the kettles in shape by periodic cleaning of firesides and watersides. The hardworking men of the firerooms excel under the leadership of Weger in number one, Chief Litsey and Ely in number two, Chief Mattos and Jiles in number three, and Chief Meigs and Loud in number four. The Oil Gang , under Chief Moon and Comstock, is constantly on the job, fueling day or night, at sea or in port, ballasting or deballasting, and continually lining up fuel and water tanks for shipboard use. Teaming up with the boiler tenders and the oil gang are the monkey mates , led by Pollock, MM1. This group is responsible for the never-ending task of upkeep and maintenance of the auxiliaries. Bravo Division Officer is LTJG R. M. Gundersen. Chief Machinist L. K. Mumford is presently doubling up as Boiler Maintenance Officer and Machinery Repair Officer.

The division is divided into seven gangs, each directly responsible for certain specific equipment. Briefly, these are : The lighting gang, which maintains and repairs all the ship ' s lighting facilities. The power gang, whose full-time job is keeping all winches and large motors for the turrets and gun mounts in readiness and working order. The distribution gang, which has charge of all ship ' s generators, switchboards, pumps, and all motors found in the engineering spaces. This gang also supplies the Columbus with all its lighting and power sources. The shop maintenance gang, who repair, rewind, and renew any damaged or destroyed electrical equipment, ranging from battle lanterns to large pumps and motors. The ventilation gang, at present consisting of one man, whose specific job is to keep all the ship ' s ventila- tion equipment in working condition. The interior communications gang, which handles such equipment as gyro compasses, ship ' s communications, and other electrical gear pertaining to communications. And finally, the Coffee gang, which keeps the division supplied with hot mud every day of the year. This is Echo division. Could you get along without it ? Nevah hoppen !

The division ' s primary job is to answer and carry out all speed changes ordered by the 0.0. D. The entire division stands watches underway on a one-in-three basis. Each man is qualified to stand one or more watches and is trained in the maintenance of the widely varied types of machinery found in the enginerooms. The forward engineroom is under the capable supervision of R.E. Vaughan, MMC, and his ichi-ban assistant, ILL. Tex Wedel, MM2. The number one repairman is R. A. Eppler, MM2, who when last seen was still working on his life-time project, the fire and bilge pump. The other straw bosses are G. W. Bryan, MM2, J. E. Koerner, MM2, G. I. Losh, MM3, and S. L.

LTJG Shanstrom ENS Read On 1 March 1956, Roger division had its name changed to Romeo division, and that phonetic shift suited the men to a T . Although the division is the backbone of damage control and fire fighting aboard ship, these men consider themselves far better lovers than fighters, though they claim to be good at both. This division maintains five shops: Metalsmith, Pipefitter, Repair IV (or Damage Control Shop), Carpentry, and the C02 Locker, and includes three rating groups: Metalsmiths, Pipefitters, and Damage Controlmen. The Romeos have a wealth of talent and varied abilities, everything from Chief Arnold, the original Do It Yourselfer to Salty Sam Upton, who can out sea story any sailor in the fleet, or Man Mountian Cooper, who can ' t be beat when the ship needs list or trim corrections. The snapper of the metalsmiths is Big George MeCarty, MK1, who is all Navy from reveille to taps. His famous quotations are, Heave up and trice out , and, Hit ' er a lick for the Navy. Mac and his tin benders take any kind of metal working job in stride, be it welding, cutting, sheet metal fabrication, or you name it. An easy going Georgia boy, Charlie Meeks, and his pipeshop gang, or fitter pipes as they are commonly called, maintain the drainage systems, showers and heads, plus the gasoline stowage and pumping system. Their work is hard and dirty, but you can count on their turning out a 4.0 job. Lee, DC1, and his damage controlmen have the heaviest responsibility, that of maintaining the watertight integrity and the damage control systems of the ship. Included in their many jobs are: air testing, woodworking, and maintenance of doors and hatches, firefighting equipment and Atomic, Biological, and Chemical W arfare Defense equipment. They work hard at important jobs all the time, but they ' re only noticed when emergency casualties occur. Their action in coping with collision damage on this cruise proved to all that these men know their rate and are valuable people to have on board. This is a division with diverse skills, but nevertheless, a smooth working team that keeps the Columbus lit and ready.

The ordering and issuing of supplies and keeping of pay records are the chief responsibilities of this division, which is under the supervision of CHPCLK J. J. Kelly, Stores Officer and Division Officer, ENS P. D. Sullivan, Disbursing Officer, M.E. Hertenstein, SKC, and A. R. Bowman, L.P.O. The storerooms are broken down into two main groups. Forward G.S.K. is the main storeroom, where all office supplies are kept. In the forward storerooms you also have the line locker, paint storeroom, foul weather gear, dishes and silverware. Five men handle the job of making issues. The after G.S.K. storeroom stocks hardware, rags and aviation gear. Two men are in charge of issuing stock back there. There are two electronics storerooms, and two ordnance storerooms, which carry equipment needed for the guns. In the spare parts storeroom, which is staffed by two men, we carry the parts that may be needed in any machine or engine. The supply office is where all the ordering of stock is done. Records, such as the department budget and the ship ' s allotment and correspondence work, are handled here. Chief Hertenstein is in charge, and has eight men working under him. The disbursing office, under the supervision of Chief Ubaldi, is where the pay records are kept, allotments started and stopped, bonds taken out and pay rolls made up. That, in a nutshell, is Sierra-One division. Mountains of that green stuff You don ' t have to understand how it works. Just issue it. ENS Pryce Whenever the familiar call chow down rings out over the IMC, the S 2 division is on the line, striving to make the Columbus the best fed ship in the fleet. The life of a gentleman chef is not so easy as it may seem to the onlooker in the chow line. Reveille goes at 4 : 30 in the morning, and the galley is often not secured until after seven in the evening. However, the liberty is good and the cooks have taken advantage of it during the cruise, establishing the division as the one which will be missed the most in the Far East when the Columbus returns to the States. Stew Miles runs the galley and associated spaces with the help of his smiling watch captains, Beans Anderson and The Greek Manousos, both CS1. Our leading petty officer, Mad Russian Gregovich, another CS1, keeps the division running smoothly and still finds time to stay in the running for the ship ' s lip-battling championship. Leon the Lion Manchester keeps the bookwork up to snuff with the help of his good man Goodwin. The position of chief griper is hotly contested by Ski Dabkowski, in charge of the reefers , and The Mole Strong, who can be found burrowing in his bulk storerooms any Monday or Thursday. Waites, CS2, has charge of the butcher shop, and manages to keep it one of the most immaculate spots on the ship, in addition to turning out choicely cut meats. The administration of the messmen is the responsibility of Weber, RDC, and his assistants Burke, BM1, and Phelps, EN1. The men in the bake shop have maintained a reputation for producing only the finest in bread and pastries. FRONT ROW: Beauchemin, N.G., Martindale, J.M. SECOND ROW : Strong, W. P., Dabkowski, H.

Led by Division Officer, CWO H. J. Estes, this division can be broken down into ten different departments : the barber shop, press shop, cobbler shop, tailor shop, ship ' s store office, ship ' s store, soda fountain, laundry, small stores and bulk storerooms. Let ' s take a short guided tour through the spaces. First comes the barber shop, where five talented men trim your curly locks (for free!), and, right next door, the press shop, which, as its name implies, presses your uniforms (for free!) and gives fast and courteous service. Further aft on the fourth deck lies clothing and small stores, the Navy ' s answer to Esquire fashions, which also houses the ship ' s store office. Next are the bulk storerooms, jam-packed with saleable goods that are distributed to the store as required. Thence to the cobbler shop and neighboring tailor shop, where shoes and clothes are put back together by our experts. No one needs to be introduced to the ship ' s store, so let ' s move athwartship to the geedunk and have a chocolate shake. And, to wind up this lightning-like tour, we move down a deck and pause to gaze in wonder at the busy laundry, where thousands of shirts and socks and skivvies are mangled. . .er, that is, washed every week. Spread out all over the ship, we still have one thought always uppermost in our minds : service to the crew. Some like it short some like it long A little off the top, please Which one of these creases does he want me to press ? And I ' ll take two of these and six of these and . . . In the months prior to leaving for WesPac the S-4 division had an unusually large turnover of personnel. The reason for this was to bring aboard as many stewards as possible whose homes were in the Philippines, in order to give them a chance to visit their families while the ship was operating in the Far East. Thus many men of the division have had an opportunity on this cruise to see their friends and families for the first time in years. The division itself plays a very important part in the operation and performance of the ship, for it is responsible for the preparation and serving of food to the Captain, Executive Officer, Wardroom Officers, and Warrant Officers. In addition its members are responsible for the care and upkeep of the rooms of the Captain and the various officers. During periods of battle drills the men serve in various capacities, such as ammo and powder passers, and gun loaders in the three inch anti-aircraft mounts.

The Training and Education Office, as its name implies, is vitally involved in all aspects of training and education- -whether it be school quotas, training courses o ' r high school diplomas. Personal gear found adrift ends up at another X division activity, the lucky bag locker. Also on the fourth deck but further aft, is the print shop, which does the printing for the entire ship. The Legal Office concerns itself with matters both legal and illegal. It is ably assisted by the ship ' s police force, the Master-at-Arms. The Public Information Office (known informally as PIO ) sees to it that AP, UP, INS and TASS get all the latest concerning CA-74. Closely affiliated is the Photo Laboratory, which supplies the necessary photographs to accompany these hot news releases. All in all a division of many activities, but, in spite of its diversified nature, a closely knit group of hard working men. Grinding out the POD ' Ah, new men for the 7th division We must have that record somewhere 3d Chief Sheriff and his posse The November division is a small but select group of men living in a fraternity where there are no eight hour days, no five day weeks, and where absolute devo- tion to duty and a seaman ' s eye are required. The Navigation department is headed by the Navigator, who, with his assistant, is charged with guiding the ship safely from port to port and away from all dangers of the high seas. Assisting him in these exacting duties are the ship ' s quartermasters, who continually keep all charts and publications of navigational information up to date for use in daily navigational work. The quartermaster is also the OOD ' s right and left hands, assisting him in running a taut watch, keeping an accurate account of the ship ' s history in the deck log, ensuring the rendering of proper honors, and recording the readings of vital instruments. Equally as important are the buglers, who add luster to the ship by their smart calls, and the yeoman, who maintains the records and deck logs in precise fashion. navigation . • LCDR W. H.

H. 215 North Drive, Honolulu NOTE : It is regrettable that the present roster is not fully complete, but it was inevitable, since some men were on leave and some, despite repeated appeals in the planof-theday, failed to turn in their home addresses. In other cases we dis- covered, too late to rectify them, some incomplete addresses — street address but no town or city was a fairly frequent oversight — and, besides, some men ' s handwriting was such that errors may have resulted during the typing of the master list. In most cases these errors or oversights could have been corrected had the ship not been several thousand miles away from the place where the book was published. Finally, an error occurred in the caption under one of the Foxtrot division pictures. Again, the absence of the ship prevented the editors from rectifying this ommision.
