You will though ' the Queen said, if you don ' t make a memorandum of it. Lewis Carroll (1832-92) ALICE IN WONDERLAND SUBIC BAY CHANGE OF COMMAND The shift of skippers took place in Yokosuka, Japan. Since no event in the life of a commissioned ship of the fleet is as imbued With the weight of ceremony as the changing of the guard a host of dignitaries and the entire crew turned out in a truely elaborate fashion. Feelings were mixed; to part with the old and inaugurate the new all at once. ■f-M Tjt K or r:nnnK.HT of u33 0 J EIS, 3 ■ _TP ' E - ' v« ' ATHLETICS THE THRILL OF VICTORY So many strident gams were made and triumphs in sports were right up in the top as Juneau pride and spirit blazed the way throughout the Western Pacific. Seventh Fleet will not soon forget the records we set during WESPAC 83. • Hakodate citizens praised the high-spirited sailors who put their hearts into the volleyball competitions •The football games on the grounds at White Beach were great •Some rivals simply heard that they would be rolling against Juneau and would not even show up •The basketball team was marvelous in the Olympics in Sasebo. They brought home the trophy. Of course it was not always roses. We learned humility for which the Captain had to pay But we had fun and in sports we left our mark THE AGONY OF DEFEAT FEATURES the things featured in this book are riotously funny. You really had to be there to understand why those guys are smiling or why the others are sweating. The great chili cook-off brought out several grand and marvelous recipes for some hot fun. DIVISIONS Throughout the cruise we learned new skills and honed others that kept the razor edge on our ability to be seaworthy sailors. The Marines were a constant part of everything we did. They showed us a few tricks too, whether it was how to be trees or how to row a raft in Chinhae Bay. AND MORE Our memorandum of the cruise — this book, is jammed with so many of the memories of the exciting places we visited like Tokyo ' s Disneyland; and of the people we met. But more it is about what we became and the factors that shaped us. - r 3 V PRE-SAIL Before the cruise got underway our last days stateside were spernt attending to as many of ttiose chores that could be completed to make the separation a little bit easier for those members of the Juneau family who would endure the cruise from ashore. And when we could do no more, the ship was cleaned from stem to stern. The brow was laid down. Our ship for a day was not really a battle wagon heavily geared for warfare. It was a romping pleasure craft out for a Sunday spin. Our families and friends were aboard to enjoy the de- pendent ' s cruise on what was to be our home for the next six months. 4 MAY ' 83 Despite the often felt tiope that the day somehow simply would not come, the sun came up bright and early across San Diego Bay. In no time the familiar sights began to slip slowly past. We were bound for the high seas and the high adventure manners have found for untold centuries since the Vi- kings pushed their long boats across the great blue waves. Yet, even with the thrill of new vistas tugging at our imaginations the tender, still warm thoughts of home weighed heavily on nearly every heart and mind. UNDERWAY s J;i ' : i|m] IH S W ' M -j .

During the first days everyone was kept busy working out the bugs in their systems. Preparations for upcoming exer- cises and the arduous days to come had to be made. f : ;-:- ' r« % ,,, = , ,V, ' PORT CALL The question is What is the southernmost ot the United States? And who ever gets it right the first time? It was still in America. But Hawaii was so new and different; packed with strange sights, our first port call. Yes we were looking forward to it after the longest stint at sea for many of our shipmates. Pearl Harbor is an impressive sight — from the appropriately named Diamond Head point to the Arizona Memorial it is a his tory filled mecca. Besides that Hawaii was something miore . . . . -V- Ftaiu. Hawaii was beaches, bikinis and pretty girls. Unfortunately it was just a pit stop along the way; pull in long enough to get some gas, load vital stores and get un- derway for operations off the is- land of Kahoolawe. i If yF r ' t -••mmi ' sm mm i imfimimM ' ii ii x W: • ' ' s ' ■ ' ' • .- torn 1 ' ' ■h r ' ¥ ' : .

As it drew closer, the hulk materialized into the battleship USS New Jersey (BB 62), Queen of the Oceans. SUBIC BAY The ship was in and out of the Phillipines several times. Each time gave us a different persepective on this evolving paradise. Jungle squa- lor exists hand and hand with the most modern.
