DEDICATION .The mission of the Navy and the purpose of DELTA is main- tained at a high level by the hard Working men aboard DELTA, who left their families behind seven months in order to ensure Seventh Fleet ships a state of readiness in order to maintain peace in the Far East. The long hours and hot climates on both sides of' the Pacific were necessary to complete our mission. The mail being the only constant link between our men and their loved ones. Mail Call U was anticipated by all hands every day. We dedicate this book to our families, Wives, sweethearts, mothers and fathers, who carried on their daily tasks While DELTA was in West Pac. HISTORY The USS DELTA Was built in 1940 as the SS HAWAIIAN PACKER and originally designed for commercial use on the pineapple run between San Francisco and Honolulu. Before completion she was acquired by the U. S. Navy and commissioned as a cargo ship in 1941. On July 1, 1942, she Was placed in the reserve fleet for conversion to a Heet repair ship. Since that time DELTA has served in both WW II and the Korean conHict on both coasts as a repair ship with the purpose of serving other ships. Presently homeported in Long Beach, California, we deployed to the Western Pacific December 26,l1963, for a period of seven months to service the ships of the Seventh Fleet. We arrived on January 28, 1964, and spent our first three months in Subic Bay, Republic of the Philippines. Late in April We put into Sasebo, Japan for three Weeks to serve the fleet there. We particularly enjoyed our visit to Moji, Japan, While enroute to Iwakuni and Yokosuka before returning home to Long Beach. As a repair ship the DELTA does many types of Work. We have twenty-nine separate repair shops which service everything from locks to heavy machinery. ln all instances DELTA has accomplished the tasks to fulfill her motto: A DELTA job is a job Well done
