Seventh Fleet Arriving The General During this deployment, HANSON had many dis- tinguished visitors as the photographs in this section indicate. One of the highlights was a visit by J. D. HITTLE, Ass't. Secretary of the Navy for Manpower and Reserve Affairs and Vice Admiral W. F. BRINGLE, Commander, U.S. Seventh Fleet. IVlr. Hittle and Admiral Bringle came aboard to discuss impending personnel measures which the Navy intends to implement to ease the burden imposed upon l-the men of the Navy due to operational necessities. During the waning days of our cruise, Brigadier General BURKE, Commanding General, 1st Brigade, 5th infantry llVlechanizedl visited the ship while we were conducting Naval gunfire support off the DIVIZ. Being unfamiliar with shipboard life, he left HANSON quite impressed especially of our ability to conduct sustained fire support which was amply demonstrated when HANSON was required to open up her main armament upon enemy positions ashore.
