Turn-Over % How did we spell relief? G-0-M-P-E-R-S. After sixty days in the lagoon at Diego Garcia the beautiful sight of the USS SAMUEL G. GOMPERS (AD-37) greeted our eyes as we looked toward the mouth of the lagoon early in the morning of 1 May. The Fat Sam had arrived and it was time for the DIXON to stand down and prepare to go home. After a day at the pier taking on fuel the GOMPERS came alongside us for a two day turn-over of jobs and material. As she pulled up, members of the crews of each ship lined the rails watching their counterparts with curiosity. On the one ship wondering what Diego Garcia would be like and on the other, happiness that our turn was over. As soon as the IMC on GOMPERS announced Moored the spectators on DIXON let out a cheer that could be heard inside the GOMPERS. GOOD LUCK FAT SAM , IT ' S YOUR TURN NOW.
