Cl ;ln ' 30oms - ( )ur whaleboat was manned continuously while at Condition III, ready to be lowered at a moment ' s notice for any rescue attempts that would have to be made. The gun crews were manned partly by 2nd Division ' s men. Underway replenishments took up much of their time. All in all, late to bed and early to rise was their plan of the day--a price that must be paid to insure a nothing-but-the-best performance. WK? LTJG Richards; M.C. Moore, BM2; J.M.
