When, from time to time in the course ofa ships wanderings throughout the various insun- dry corners of the earth, it is discovered that hidden amongst the deep dark recesses of her in- terior are dangerous impurities, unworthy ele- ments, or abominable scum, the matter is turned over to King Neptunus Rex for his consideration and arbitration. On 23 January, 1966 the Great King appointed certain members of his royal en- tourage to preside in the case of the USS GUA- DALUPE, in which numerous unworthies who had failed to cross the 180th meridian were called forth to answer for their sin of omission. 4' ,, 4 Q' A wr, 1 X ' ! iff Q t gi-if 75 , ' -I In .'6, vga' .-gg, .'?i' N - ,325 .

From plotting a sea full of ships to the accurate ringing of the ship's bell, the responsibilities of the operations department are many and varied. The operational eyes and ears of the ship, the USS GUADALUPE's operations department consists of several ratings to insure her timely arrival at scheduled rendezvous to replenish the depleted fuel supplies of the U. S. striking force in the Pacific. Radiomen re- ceive the messages that tell the how much and where of an impending unrep. The information is passed to Radarmen and Quartermasters who plot the ships and navigate the USS GUADALUPE to the area. Once there the Signalmen establish visual communications for last minute coordination and carrying out of replenish- ment, and all the while the Electronics Technicians are standing by to guard against any major breakdown in navigational or communications equipment. It was con- sistent effort by all members of the operations team that contributed greatly towards GUADALUPFXS fine 1966 Westpac record. if -F 1- f ' v Z' . ...wax r Front Row: Davis, SN, King, SM3, Rubio, SN, Comeau, SN, Cain, SN.
