The boatswainmates lot could only be de- scribed as a busy one on the 1974 Med cruise. All H Division not actually on watch, lay to . . . usually signalled the beginning of some major deck evolution. And there were many which heavily involved the boatswainmates, to list a few: one towing exercise, twenty-eight re- fuelings, four UNREPs, one highline transfer, thirteen boat transfers, 73 Helo Details, ten an- chorages, two Med moorings, and three SAR misssions, one of which saved three lives. Con- stantly chipping, sanding, priming and paint- ing—for a ship which steams is rust ' s best friend-the BM ' s kept the DAHLGREN looking twice as good as most other Sixth Fleet ships. Their boat crews in San Remo, Cannes and St. Maxime spent long hours shuttling liberty par- ties back and forth, sometimes becoming stranded on the beach when the weather changed for the worse. The BM ' s day started with an early morning sweepdown swabdown and often ended with a late night turn-to when weather caused lines to require tightening. While plane guarding BM ' s stood four-hour bridge watches and then stood by for another four hours as Planeguard Detail ready to pro- ceed with rescue operations if an aircraft crashed. Coming into port BM ' s were up early rigging quarterdeck awnings, fenders, accom- odation ladders, checking boats, etc. The old phrase A boatswainmate ' s work is never done would not be argued by anyone in H Division!
