IN A SINGLE DAY THEIR ASSIGNMENTS MAY RANGE FROM SIMPLE ID PHOTOGRAPHS TO AERIAL RECONNAISSANCE, FROM RECORDING THE VISIT OF A FOREIGN DIGNITARY TO ACTUAL OR EXERCISE BATTLE OPERATIONS AND, INDEED, TO MAKING THE PICTORIAL REC- ORD OF THE ACTIVITIES OF THE CREW AND THE PLACES VISITED BY THE SHIP SO NECESSARY TO THE ILLUSTRATIONS OF THIS BOOK. THE PERCEPTION OF THE MOMENT AND EX- POSURE OF THE NEGATIVE IS NOT THE FULL STORY FOR BEFORE IT LIES TRAINING AND BEHIND IT DARKROOM DIS- CIPLINE, ALL REQUISITE TO ONE PICTURE WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS. s , i- w PHCS w.A.

DIVISION K, 34 LTJG D.M.IHLE wg ENS .l.H.BATEMAN LTJG D.L. BURKE IN THINKING OF ASW CARRIERS, THERE IS A NATURAL TEND- ENCY TO CONCENTRATE ON THE AIR ARM AT THE EXPENSE OF THE OTHER SYSTEMS EMPLOYED BY THE SHIP, EITHER FOR OFFENSE OR DEFENSE. SONAR IS SUCH A SYSTEM, COM- MONLY OVERLOOKED BY THE LAYMAN, FOR LOCATING AND TRACKING SUBMARINES. SONAR ACCOMPLISHES ITS PURPOSE BY PROJECTING A SOUND BEAM THROUGH THE WATER AND READING THE ECHO WHICH IS RETURNED UPON CONTACT. THE MEN OF OS DIVISION OPERATE AND MAINTAIN THE SONAR AND RELATED EQUIPMENT. 4 A -N I STG3 R.C. DAVENPORT SN G.L. GALLI STGSN D.E. STG3 J.J. WILHELM STG2 G.N. BEMISS JR. STG3 W.L.
