CHAPLAIN - The Chaplain is the ship's spiritual coun- selor. He conducts weekly church services and delivers the evening prayer each night underway. His door is always open to come in and discuss a problem or just to say hello. During the cruise he did much to boost our morale, plan+ ning many fine recreational events both aboard and ashore, including the many informative and entertaining tours in the various ports we visited, bingo nights and the ship's party. His smile and good will went a long way toward making a happy crew. COMMAND CAREER ACOUNSELOR - The success of every enlisted man on boardqis his primary concern. He will interview each man at various points in their tour on board, determining their desires and advising them of the requirements necessary to reach their goals. He keeps the command informed of the progress made by each individual and coordinates the effort necessary to ensure full opportu- nity for advancement and training is afforded to all hands. SENIOR CHIEF PETTY OFFICER OF THE OOM- MAND - The Senior Chief Petty Officer of the Command is the senior enlisted man on board. His role is vital, as he is the key link between the Captain and the crew. He makes timely recommendations to the CO on the needs and prob- lems of the crew, and most importantly, he offers solutions. The SCPOC is a part of most committees, boards and councils, and his presence is always welcome along with his wise advice. MMCS F. A. PRUET, USN sir , M LCDRCCHCJ G. A. LANGHORNE, USN NCC J. R.

E ECUTIVE GF F ICER The second in command, the city manager, the vital link in the chain, the enforcer, the be everywhere at once miracle worker, the Captain's right hand man, the de- partment heads' inspiration, the crew's conscience. . .our XO was all these things, and more! His smile and light- ning wit illuminated the wardroom. His wrath stopped the ship. Perhaps his most frightening words were direct- ed to the wardroom mess cooks, Whatya mean we're outa ice cream? He was one in a million. We will all miss such a great leader, a great man. CDR JOHN W. MCHENRY, USN 1 l l l I l l r
