However the most important single item on this list would be Combat Readiness. With about a fifty percent turnover in the crew from the last cruise, training is mandatory. Not only must we eat and live together, but most importantly, we must learn to work together as a team. From the Bridge to the Flight Deck, to the Hangar Deck, to the TV Studio, to Engineering. Just ask anyone aboard who ' s job is most important and they will answer, Mine. Maybe rightly so. It is impossible to catch everything that goes on during this period of time and to put it in four pages. However, we have tried to hit the highlights of what went on before deployment.

SHARING THE LOAD 28 puni COOl flTH ElECTRICITV ENGINEERING A DIVISION The seven work centers of A Division cover a wide and varied range of occupations aboard Coral Sea. Tfiere are a tot of varied ski Is necessary to keep tfiis vital part of Coral Sea running smootfi y. Tfte sfiops included in A Division are: Tfte Hydraulics sfiop - tfiese men are tfie ones that ensure the steering ah vays responds to the bridge and that the elevators can get the planes to tfte flight deck. They keep careful watch over the hydraulic gear that moves the heavy equipment for Coral Sea. The Steam Heat Shop - The hot water you shower with, the steam that cooks your food and the heat to dry your clothes all come from this shop. The Refrigeration Shop - Do you like air conditioning? Then you love the guys in this shop. They keep the cold air machines working, keeping you and the food you eat fresh. Diesel - The diesels work center operates two emergency generators. These are used in case the steam generators break down. The Machine Shop - This shop does the ships tooling, making many needed repair parts that are not available at sea. 02N2 Shop - The Oxygen and Nitrogen Shop creates liquid oxygen and nitrogen on board. 30 mjn B DIVISION B, or Boiler. Division is perhaps one of the most necessary and vital groups on Coral Sea. These men work in the super hot spaces in the deep holds of the ship. In these holds the steam is made that turns our generators, making our electricity. Our water is made from their efforts and our engines depend on this steam to push the Coral Sea through the water. In short almost everything that runs, and certainly everyone that lives aboard Coral Sea depends on the boilermen for the basic necessities of life. E DIVISION Electrical power is the lifeblood of Coral Sea and the men of E Division keep this vital energy flowing; The shops in E Division are: Electrical Distribution - They are responsible for the distribution of all power aboard Coral Sea. Power and Rewind Shop - This shop is responsible for ventilation, galley equipment casualty power, 117 and 440 power circuits. They rewind motors from less than one h.p. up to 1000 h.p. The Aviation and Ordnance Electrical Shop - These men repair and keep up catapults, arresting gear, bomb elevators, ammo hoists and aircraft elevators. Electrical Safety Shop - The men of this shop handle the repair and upkeep of all their testing equipment They inspect for safety all portable and anchored electrical equipment. The IC gang is responsible for internal communications aboard. Forward and Aft Gyro, Forward IC Shop, Telex and Sound Power are their specialties.

There are four Engine Rooms. Each engine has an ahead and an astern turbine. They are all steam driven at 600 p.s.i.. The turbines turn the shafts running into the reduction gears which reduces the shaft rpm ' s to give the speed that you really need. In the Pump Rooms there are eight pumps per room. Like most things on board they are driven by steam. They consist of two main feed pumps, two feed booster pumps, two condensate pumps, one auxiliary booster pump and one cooling water pump. In the generator rooms there are two steam driven generators. They have a 1,250 kilowatt capacity, each. There are four generator rooms aboard Coral Sea that supply the power for our floating city. Shaft Alleys are very small rooms consisting of two or more pieces of equipment. The shaft coming from the engine rooms fill these alleys. They are large enough to move around in with ease. R DIVISION The personnel of R Division are Coral Sea ' s repairmen. When the equipment breaks down, clogs up or develops a leak they are always ready to arrest the problem. Perhaps one of the more important pieces of equipment that R Division personnel take care of are the lightwater stations. Lightwater is one of the Navy ' s major firefighting mixtures, employed against oil and gasoline fires, so these stations must be in excellent working condition at all times. R Division is also considered the Damage Control Division. They ensure that all of the DC equipment is in good working order and that the repair party lockers are complete and all of the materials are intact. WEAPONS FOX DIVISION Our Fire Control Technicians are the ship ' s protectors.

Maintenance - They are responsible for bomb elevators and ammo hoists. Flight Deck - They control all ordnance on the flight deck and deliver it to the squadrons, maintain a bomb farm and assist squadron ordnancemen in making sure the required ordnance is available. Hangar Deck - All ordnance from forward assembly to the flight deck and ordnance handling equipment is their responsibility. Forward and Aft Assembly - These two different shops stow aviation ordnance in magazines assigned to them. They assemble aircraft ordnance also. Ships Armory - They handle all small arms aboard Coral Sea. GM DIVISION Whenever someone thinks of modern weaponry they automatically think of guided missiles. While Coral Sea herself doesn ' t have a guided missile defense system, her aircraft utilize them in her behalf and in defense of themselves. The men of GM Division handle these modern day shipboard artillery pieces. The first evolution they participate in is bring the missiles aboard and store them in weapons storage spaces. They keep them under close watch until the call goes out to ready them for use. When they are called for. the men of GM Division wheel them out. armed and ready for use against Coral Sea ' s target. If they return unused, they are disarmed and returned to their spaces to wait until next time. -. ' .. PH ' ki ' V..- r i T s )0l 1 5TH DIVISION The men of 5th Division are responsible for the care and maintenance of Coral Sea ' s five inch guns. The Gunners Mates train regularly at the loading and firing of the guns also, being Coral Sea ' s secondary air defense group. 49 MARINE DETACHMENT The Marine Detachment consists of approximately 60 handpicked volunteers.

An example of other services rendered include immunizations, physical examinations, elective surgery, optical examinations, audiograms and sanitation inspections throughout the ship. The goal of the Medical Department is to provide quality health care to the entire crew on a continuing basis. COMMUNICA TIONS CR DIVISION The burden of providing telecommunications for tfie Coral Sea falls on CR Division. This dedicated group processes from 5O0 to 15O0 messages a day. These messages include everything from Top Secret to C ass Easy telegrams. CR brings in the news and sends out information to others. They are the ears and voice of Coral Sea. These men handle voice circuits, secure circuits and the long and short range circuits. CS DIVISION In a very real sense the men of CS Division are the eyes and the voice of the bridge. The Signal Gang is charged with visual communications. To accomplish this task, they use semaphores, flashing lights and signal flags to silently direct the movements of the escorts who sail with us and to exchange information with larger ships near us. To utilize this type of communications the ship or ships involved must be within sight of Coral Sea. The use of visual signals is as old as shipping itself and is vital even in this modern day.

Hawaii for our first visit of the cruise. Even though we were only there for two days, one day each way. most Coral Seamen got a chance to experience this island paradise. The island of Oahu. our port of call, is the third largest in the seven island chain. Translated from Hawaiian to English. Oahu means the Gathering Place. The men of Coral Sea and Air Wing 15 gathered together to make the most of liberty in this sunny Pacific resort. Many stories have been written about the beauty and mystery of these islands of enchantment. There are sights in this islartd chain that are guaranteed to take your breath away. Few men get an opportunity to view tftese islartds arnf the men of Coral Sea are rtumbered among the fortunate ones. From Waikiki Beach to the city of Honolulu the islartd of Oahu was invaded by souvenir hunters and pleasure seekers. The islartd attractions such as the Blow Hole. Han nam a Bay and the high surf of North Shore were scertes of many clicking cameras and merry groups of Coral Seamen. It was a port everyone will remember for a long time. The USS Arizona Memorial spans the sunken hull of the battleship USS Arizona, which rests in 38 feet of water at the bottom of Pearl Harbor. An enclosed bridge, touching no part of the ship itself, the 184-foot memorial is supported by two 250-ton concrete girders resting on 36 prestressed pilings Construction of the memorial was authorized by the 85th Congress and approved by President Eisenhower in 1958. A $150,000 construction grant was passed in 1961 artd sigrted by President Kennedy. The memorial, dedicated to the 1. 1 77 men who died in the attack was dedicated on Memorial Day. 1 962. ■. •J ' l Th0 m n of CormI Sea pay tribute to the men of the USS Arizona who gmvm their lives on that latetul day. December 7. 1941 Only 289 men of a ctew ol about 1 500 survived Mora than 1000 men are still trapped inside the Arizona ' s Hull Downtown Waikiki on the island of Oahu. The Top of the Eye, a revolving restaurant that overlooks Waikiki Beach, can be seen in the upper center of the photograph at left. The International Market Place is a beautHully designed center of commerce. There are over a hundred shops and restaurants where you can buy everything from grass skirts to the latest electronic equipment. Located in the International Market Place is the Tree Top restaurant where a couple can dine undisturbed by others. It is a unique type of restaurant with the charm that is unmistakably Hawaiian. 131 Th beaches of Hawmh hmvmn ' t got an equal anywhere in the world Tourists and natives alike can be lound on the warm sartds soaking up the sunshine every day of the week People come from all over thie wo M just to lie about on these sunny shores Hannama Bay, a fish preserve, is a popular spot for skin diving, scuba diving and snorkling The enthusiasts come to watch the fish as both swimmers and underwater creatures explore r M coral reefs.

' ,- ■: .■.. ' ■.v.: Thm port of Subic Bay in the Republic of the Philippines is Coral Sea ' s home away from home in the Western Pacific. At least 2 million N avymen and 500.000 guests visit Olongapo every year. The amount of money they spend totals more than 700-million Peso ' s a year, at S20 a day per person. Olongapo functions as a service community of the U.S. Navy and is virtually dependent on the base for sustenance. The city earns 10.7 million Peso ' s a year. This tax comes in from nine banks. 80 hotels, a dozen theatres, 92 restaurants, 191 niteclubs, 30.0O0 kilos of meat a day, 1 ,540 gallons of drinks daily, 8,250 hostesses and over 3, 650 stores. After a long and tiresome Journey the port of Subic was a welcome sight to the men of Coral Sea and Air Wing 15. The crew manned the rails in dress whites for the entrance into port. Men were seen gazing toward the shore from all pmrts of the ship. As Coral Sea pulled up to the I M ' ; t pier On December 29, 1974 she found a reception committee waiting. Adopted as Olongapo ' s Own in 1973, Coral Sea ' s homecoming to Subic Bay was looked forward to as a day of festivities. In official welcoming ceremonies Captain Rogers exchanged honors with Mayor G. B. Lipumano. The Sampaguita Ckib sent a band and several hostesses to meet us. Just past the Main Gate and across the river is Magsaysay Drive. Cabs and jeepneys stop at the corner to pick up fares as Navy men leave the base headed for a day of liberty. Along the causeway that runs down beside Magsaysay are a myriad of shops displaying their wares. Everything from paintings and woodcarvings to Bar-B-Q and American and Filipino cigarettes. Most items are priced quite reasonably and it is the first and the last thing seen by sailors. Three Filipino housewives socialize in their driveway. Their conversation probably includes such things as the latest in styles and stitches. One of the many souvenir shops that abound in the city of Olongapo. The primary artifacts are made of wood and are quite inexpensive.

They used the baseball diamond as a landing point, landing right on target The divers were showstoppers. This view from the ferris wheel shows a small portion of the crowd. The four day festival drew thousands into Subic Bay. A novel way to work off frustrations is to wreck a car. One was provided and people paid to take a swing at the battered car. It was destroyed. The House of Horror was a major attraction. The youngsters seemed to really enjoy the mummy most. 143 Coral Sam held Opan Housa February 8 and 9 The ship sat up displays in the hangar bay from evary division for viewing by the many visitors to the ship The visitors stopped while crewmen explained the workings within the divisions they represented Visitors from all over the Philippines came to get a look at the workings of an aircraft carrier Everyone was very impressed with Coral Sea. The flight deck was open and the visitors got a chance to look at part of Coral Sea ' s Air Wing during their tour. On March 18. 1975 Coral Sea was entertained by a group sponsored under the authority of the Department of Defense. The group was a change of pace from the music the crew was used to listening to. Ttw pretty girls didn ' t hurt either. Coral Seamen from all parts of the ship crowded around to listen to the music. The latest tunes from the States filled the hangar bay as the group began to really get into the gig Excursion boats to Grande stand run every hour on the hour taking Coral Seamen and others toward a day of fun and relaxation Skin diving, scuba diving and snorkeling along with swimming, bicycle riding, baseball and just soaking up the sun filled the day and Coral Seamen could take their pick of things to do As you land on Grande you walk the length of the pier to the ticket window It costs 50e which is payable after you get there At this office you also pay for the Special Services equipment available. Anything you could want to use is available for rent at this office Everything from baseball gear to cottages and hotel rooms are available for a modest price Covered picnic tables and outdoor grills were used extensively for divisional and squadron parties. Coral Seamen flocked to these parties every weekend ami off days. Free food and drink, paid for out of funds set aside especially for these parties, made them the place to go whenever they were held. Everyone from the rawest recruit to the Division Officer showed up. The whole day at Grande is devoted to fun and relaxation. It is a place to just let go for a day arid forget about your worries and cares. ._— S In 1973 USS Coral Sea was adopted by New K alalake Barrio and became Olongapo ' s Own. The festivities were topped off by a three day block party to celebrate the occasion. In 1975 the scene was recreated to commemorate the day and to reaffirm the warm feeling of friendship between the barrio and Coral Sea. Captain T. S. Rogers. Jr., along with Mayor G. Lipumano of Olongapo opened the festival with speeches concerning the party and called it a re-celebration of those ties. The party was a part of Coral Sea ' s welcome back to Olongapo. Captain Rogers, speaking in Tagalog. received a tremernious reaction from the crowd. He stated that the ship was very glad to be back in the Philippines and invited all of the local residents to visit Coral Sea. Thousands of Coral Seamen and Filipino ' s attended the gala celebration. In the center square, music continued throughout the entire celebration. American and Filipino bands provided entertainment for all. During the course of the party literally tons of food were consumed every day Native Lumpia along with hot dogs, chicken arnl hamburgers roasted on open grills. Coral Seamen and other partygoers could choose between soft drinks and San Miguel. Hundreds of cases of both were used to wash down the tons of food and to drive off the heat of the day. As with all good things, the party came to an ertd. It was sad and more than orye man could be heard asking when we were going to have another one. • !_.• a Tite Navst Station Fir D  p a r t m a n t Band firovidad savaral hours of antmrtainmant tor th patty goat i Captain Rogers, Commander Cornell and Chaplain Casey render a salute to the American and Philippine national anthems.

SINGAPORE SINGAPORE Singapore, one of the shopping capitals of tfie Western Pacific, was a welcome sight to Coral Seamen after our longest at sea period of the cruise. For many of us it was our first time in this majestic port. Singapore is a perfect blending of East and West. The two cultures come together here to present the best of both worlds. There were many surprises in store for Coral Seamen in Singapore. There were back home restaurants and many goods and services common to the United States. But while there were many familiar sights, a lot of new experiences awaited the crew. It isn ' t everyone who has the opportunity to eat in an open air food market where everything you could possibly want is available. Fresh fruit, blended into a drink, and fresh foods straight from the sea and farms. Singapore abounds in beautiful parks and gardens. The city is sprinkled with many, many small walk through gardens with seats for weary travelers to rest on. Tfte Singapore Botanical Gardens, for instance, contains some of the world ' s most beautiful orchids. Tfte following pages will attempt to tell you in pictures about this beautiful port of caU. 156 As Coral Sea pulled into Singapore we were unprepared for the sight that awaited us. A hundred ships from all over the world rode at anchor. There were ships of all sizes and types, from large merchantmen to the small water taxis which many Coral Seamen found quite handy. It was an impressive sight since we hadn ' t seen that concentration of ships since Hong Kong, last cruise. Th« Raffias Hotal providad a local maating placa and a placa to stop for a cold drink.

Perth was called the City of Lights by American astronauts when the citizens of Perth turned on all of tffe lights in the city. Tffey were visible for miles above the earth. Located in Western Australia, Perth is blessed with beautiful year round weather very similar to San Francisco, California. Never has Coral Sea received the welcome we found in Perth. The city rolled out tfw red carpet and the citizens operted up their fiearts and homes to all Coral Seamen. Coral Seamen were in great demand around town and there were many questions to be asked and answered by both sides as the two cultures met. Many of us left frierxis that we can never forget arni we hope to meet again. ABOVE The modern city of Perth LEFT The ride to Perth was rough BELOW- Dial A-Sailor was a success.

' aWKS BBSSDXKCTaSfiiriP fJ Much more can be said about CORAL SEA in the time period that this book covers. Some of it bad, but I honestly think, most of it good. We definitely had an eventful cruise, making a notch in the history books for us. All-around. I would have to say that we had a damn good cruise. Some of you may disagree, but then we always did have that ' ten par cent ' . I think this is a good book and hopefully you will also. This, being my first such book, I could not begin to thank all of the people that have assisted me with it. My assistant editor, J03 Melvin Epps. sat up many nights with me. If I had to name one group of people who helped me the most it would have to be the ship ' s Photo Lab with CW02 R amine acting as the cruise book advisor. Without their help, this book would have been impossible. With some of the demands I made. I don ' t know why they put up with me. Last but certainly not least I would like to thank Pischel Yearbooks, specifically Mrs. Helen Thompson and Mr. Lee Jones, for a superb Job in putting this book together. They had to put up with me also, late dead-lines and all. J01 BOBSOMMER EDITOR riAoaoom Wi: JT ' = iam . itii .«i. Hie K 1 i
