AS THE MS SEE IT It's official January 27 1968 at0858 the USS DFNNIS J BUCKLEY QDD 8083 began it' fantastic Voyage By 1015 the DENNIS J BUCKLEY had passed bouy 1SD and had entered the open sea Hardly fifteen minutes had 'passed before the first general quarters exercise was held The rest has become history Our first leg in transit was steamed with USS UHLMANN IDD 6875- Amid pounding seas and splashing foam the two destroyers bobbed their way to Pearl Harbor The Hawaiian Islands greeted us on February 2nd After one day of refueling and replenishment in sight ofthe monument of the battleship ARIZONA, BUCKLEY and USS FLOYD B. PARKS QDD-8849 set off to Midway Island on the second leg of the transit.. Several days after our brief stop in Midway we joined the USS BONHOMME RICHARD QCVA-317 and the rest of our task group for the cruise's first underway replenishment with USS PLATTE QAO-247. No more 'than three hundred feet separated us from the BONNIE DICK as we witnessed our first aircraft launches of many we were to see in the next six months. An- other refueling from BONHOMME RICHARD on the thirteenth and the USS DENNIS J. BUCKLEY arrived at Subic Bay, Philippine Islands. We were more than five thousand miles from home. Nextlday we were out to sea again con- ducting local operations with the BONNIE DICK. The first helo detail was set at 1159 that morning. Two-hundred fifty later we were to be back home. 5 -4 -AS-45-:.?2f1E -2-' ' 9 J , . S 9 0 . .
