A Year of Change USS JOSEPHUS DANIELS spent a majority of 1983 undergoing an extensive overhaul at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard. The ship ' s first six months were spent suspended in drydock, and those of us who experienced the yards lived on APL-19, a vintage barge tied to Pier 6. In mid-October we bid farewell to Philadelphia and sailed for Norfolk, our beloved homeport, and since that time we have sailed the waves from the VACAPES to the Caribbean to Singapore and back. As Admiral MacDonaid ' s flagship we hit the lush, exotic ports of Antigua, St. Kitt ' s, St. Lucia and Barbados, and, after escorting the Soviet Navy ' s Leningrad task force to Cuba, we spent six glorious weeks undergoing Refresher Training at Guantanamo Bay. On May 3rd Capt. W. O. Stubbs assumed command of DANIELS in Ft. Lauderdale, a port where Spring Breaks occurs year round. Almost half of that summer was spent on COMPTUEX and READEX, and, as we all fondly recall, we next set sail on our first major deployment in three years. Anybody who gazed at a quartermaster ' s chart once we were on station in the North Arabian Sea might have seen a small black square in the middle of an immense expanse of water. That was our operating area. On station, waiting for a rag head ' s jet to invade our space. One did, but once the captain explained to him his precarious position, he wisely turned tail and kicked in his afterburners, a mad dash back to Bagdhad. The people of Palma and Singapore welcomed us with open arms (especially the vendors and shopkeepers) and for some of us it was a first chance to experience a foreign culture. And who can forget that agonizing night before our transit North through the Suez Canal when we all thought our cruise had been extended by several months? Though our conditions were sometimes claustrophobic and the days sometimes stretched into weeks, we sailed the seas and met our commitments like the professional sailors that we are. So toast yourselves and remember, no one messes with the U.S. Navy.
