team. It has tested, as a sea-going laboratory, many ideas, impulses and care- fully calculated tactics. Its work has served as a model for the formation of other coordinated weapons systems with the common objective of antisub- marine defense, and its own accomplishments have set the pattern and the standard for the operation of these companion groups. But those in ALFA by no means consider their job accomplished or their history written and ended. Their job becomes increasingly more difficult each day. Each challenge accepted, each defeat conquered, each victory hard-won brings with it new knowledge and new challenge. Each operation brings with it a greater understanding of the immensity of the problem, and too, a more intensive knowledge of how to overcome the problems large areas, tricky oceans and the revolutionary improvements of the nuclear submarine. This book will record a part of that history only. It will show some of the operation of the Task Group from September 1959 until September, 1960. lt could not begin to tell all of the stories or record all of the events. lt will serve instead to indicate some of the scope of the problems that face the Task Group, be it a contact which must be identified, or the recreation which must be planned to keep the men's spirits high for the job they must do during long and trying days at sea. lt is the story of the ALFA Team, her men, that has written the past history of defeats and accomplishments. And it is the men who man her ships and planes who will continue to write the history of this antisubmarine defense group-write it in boredom or hard work, in a plane, from a sub- marine, on the pitching deck of a destroyer, inthe noisy excitement of a launch from a carrier deck. Her men have written her past... abut the real story is written tcftvlciyg . , 29
