I DEPENDEN C E The mere Wd ' evokes thoughts of freedom, integrity and individuality. To us, the crew of this warship, INDEPENDENCE has been home, protector, maintainer, and above all -- the symbol of power and liberty which makes our nation the most powerful and respected in the world. But the INDEPENDENCE story does not begin on this deployment. Her service and that of her predecessorsareasmuchapartofthenations fabric as the ideals of her name. The first INDEPENDENCE was a 10- glmoontinental sloop under the command of Captain John Young. The second INDE- PENDENCE was lalmched in 1814, and in addition to serving during the Mexican- American Wal, this 74-gtm frigate was the flagshipforCommodoneBainbridge'sMedi- terranean Squadron. In 1912, another IN- DEPENDENCE wascormnissioned and op- erated as part of the Naval Overseas Trans- portation Service. The fourth INDEPENDENCE, the first of several aircraft carriers to be converted from cruiser hulls, was latmched in 1942. She fought in various actions throughout the Pacific Ocean, including the Marcus Islands,Wake and Raboul. At Tarawa, INDEPENDENCE was hit by three torpedoes, but she managed to withdraw under her own powen Returning in 1944, she saw action in repatriating the Republic ofthe Philippines.Aircraft from her deck also fought over Okinawa and made attacks on the Japanese homeland. Overall, she earned eight battle stars for her operations in the Pacific. Following the war she was assigned as an atomic test ship at Bikini Atoll. Damaged but not sunk, she retLu'ned to San Francisco where she was sunk off the coast of California in a special test in 1951.

J. mith 5 nited States Na Commander, Carrier Group FIVE Battle Force SEVE TH Fleet has been my experience that cmisebooks, once received. are scanned, then put up on a shelf for long periods, referenced only occasionally for the name of an old shipmate. After gathering dust for several years, a cruisebook becomes much more valuable to its owner as a source for memories from an earlier and very different life. While the wonderful photos contained herein will serve to bring back the faces and places, I wanted to convey some of my impressions of this past year in which INDEPENDENCE was called upon so often, and performed so brilliantly, during a million man-days at sea. I believe that the exercises we conduct to prepare for deployments are often more demanding than the deployments themselves. Spring Training '93 certainly falls into that category. The air wing took advantage of the wide-open X spaces of Westem Australia to pack every minute of 't , . A flying time they could into the 53-day trip, as always with the tremendous support of the ship. We ran into a bit of weather from a super typhoon while working with over IOOJMSDF ships during ANNUALEX, then rolled into what can only be classified as an exceptionally successful deploy- ment. Although the Cold War has ended, hot spots warranting the attention of our Navy have continued to emerge with great frequency. So even as INDY was deploying to the Arabian Gulf to support Op- eration SOUTHERN WATCH for the second time, a great deal of preparations were being made to divert the battle group to the south to support troops in Somalia. It wasn't until we left Singapore, in fact, that we knew a course to the Arabian Gulf was to be steered, where our battle group's contributions would be greeted by an appreciative coalition of U.S., French and British air forces. Following retum from deployment, and with the polished skills of half a year at sea, we led a dual bilateral force of Korean and Japanese ships through RIMPAC '94 exercises with the CONSTELLATION battle group off the coast of Hawaii, where we again proved ourselves a capable force. A trip to the dry dock for a repair availability was delayed, as we remained at sea to provide the desired level of security in the Westem Pacific area of operations. Having sailed aboard aircraft carriers for nearly 30 years, l recognize that even routine deployments are arduous. But what makes me particularly proud to be associated with the United States Navy is the way my shipmates respond to unscheduled and unpredictable at-sea periods with uncommon dedication and extraordinary devotion to duty. I salute each of you and thank you for your contributions to achievements represented in this book. I hope you remember your service on INDEPENDENCE with pride. I certainly will.

The people and places we have visited are depicted as a record of INDEPENDENCEICVW 5 accomplishments. First and foremost, we maintained a can do, always ready reputation for tactical excellence and preparedness that was recog- nized and appreciated at the highest levels of our govemment. Every distinguished visitor that came to INDY, from the secretary ofdefense to the Commander, U.S. Pacific Fleet, reaffirmed the appreciation and high regard our leaders have for the dedicated efforts ofour entire crew and staffs. We can all take pride in the fact that U.S. presence, together with other allied nations, made a significant contribution to improved stability in the Pacific Command area of responsibility. If there ever was a situation where being on the tip of the spear was important, surely this was it. A tour ofduty on Freedom' s Flagship is certainly fast paced and exciting. We completed important bilateral exercises in Australia and the Arabian Gulf, and participated in the Rim of the Pacific '94 exercise with Japanese Maritime Self Defense Forces and the Republic of Korea Navy. These exercises were important building blocks in our cooperative engagement strategy for the Pacific region. Fortunately, it wasn't all work and no play. Exciting port visits to Australia, Japan, Singapore, United Arab Emirates, Thailand, Hong Kong and Hawaii highlighted our time away from homeport. Throughout our operational and inport periods, I- 5 team members conducted themselves professionally and as proud unofficial ambassadors of the United States of America. Your readiness and flexibility were tested during unscheduled underway operations after our retum from the 1993-1994 Arabian Gulf deployment. When called on, and as expected, everyone gave the extra effort required. Our presence provided the required military support for meeting national objectives. Your sense ofcooperation, good humor and recognition ofthe importance of our mission were key factors in getting the job done right. Additionally, the support we received from our families and friends was critically important to us, and as always, much appreciated. Thankfully, with daily attention to operational safety by all hands, we did not suffer a major mishap related to aircraft or ship operations during our extensive underway time. All of you are members of ajustifiably proud team t at is unsurp' p P . p to keeping INDY a leader in the defense ol' our country and our allies. Thank you for your dedicated service. I salute you. lt has h ' ass d in ride erformance and professionalism. dedicated been my privilege to serve with you. Fair winds and following seas.

CATCC is responsible for the safe, orderly and expeditious flow of air traffic within 50 nautical miles of lndy. Through the use of various radars, navigational aids and radios. CATCC is capable of providing approaches to the ship in all weather conditions while maintaining a landing interval averaging 70 seconds between aircraft. The Air Transfer Office tATOJ is responsible for coordinating logistics and movement of pas- sengers, mail and cargo for the battle group. This includes the scheduling of ships, squadrons and land-based assets to transfer time-critical person- nel or materials. Additionally, the ATO is the responsible agency for obtaining aircraft diplomat- ic clearances from the multitude offoreign nations interacting with the battle group. Materials and personnel are delivered to the carrier and then transferred to the various units of the battle group. Upon arrival aboard Indy, each aircraft is immedi- ately unloaded under the direction of the ATO and all cargo and passengers are routed for transfer to their final destinations. This service resembles operations of many commercial airlines. The ATO is comprised of one officer and two enlisted per- sonnel who exercise supervisory control of the designated ground crews from the Supply depart- ment. ATO works with the US-3. S-3 and F-14, as well as aircraft from foreign naval vessels. During Operation SOUTHERN WATCH, more than 870,000 pounds of mail and cargo and over 3,500 personnel were transferred by the Air Transfer Office. All OC Division personnel are graduates of the Navy's air traffic control schools and are licensed by the Federal Aviation Administration. 22 224 OPERATIONS tl .
