Planning. . . Following the first reprisal strikes over North Vietnamese territories, Coral Sea conducted numerous attacks through- out Communist -held North Viet Nam. Each strike involved additional planning and preparation. Almost daily, as new targets were as- signed by higher authority, the Air Wing Commander met with the planning board to study intelligence reports and photo- graphs of the target area. It was their job to determine the ordnance and fuel loads required to carry out each day ' s mission. Strike Center served as a middleman between the planning board and the Air Department, Air Operations and the Weapons Department. It provided the Air Department with information concerning the number and type of aircraft renuired to conduct each day ' s strike. The Weapons Department was fed ordnance requirements and from this point, the machinery of a strike began turning. As the ordnancemen worked deep in the bowels of Coral Sea, breaking out the required bombs, rockets and missiles, plane handling crews on the flight deck spotted aircraft for their proper launch sequence. It was hot, dirty, sweaty work.
