I wo rail rrom carrier; ' ' .. one sailor still missing Two sailors fell overboard from the flight deck of the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk yesterday 130 miles north- east of Oahu and one man is still missing today. The Navy immediately rescued the other unhurt and searched all night for the missing man. A Barber ' s Point spokes- man said he could give no details on the accident and could not release the names of the two. The men went over the side at 4:18 p.m. and today the water in the area was 78 degrees and the seas calm. The Kitty Hawk had been und ergoing operational pre- paredness tests and was to have docked at Pearl Har- bor this morning. Accompanying the ship 4f e tJvD and helping in the search are three other Navy war- ships: the Chicago, Mahan and Arnold J. Isbell. . Lost Sailor Identified PA 7 A Navy man who fell off the carrier Kitty Hawk 130 miles at sea off Oahu and drowned has been identified as aviation electrician 3 Cl Cedric B. Boe of Greenwood, Wise. His body was not found. He was with helicopter composite squadron 1. He toppled off the carrier as it made a sharp turn to pick up another man who had fallen off a minute earlier. Boe, the Navy said, was just climbing into his heU- copter at the time. The other man was re- covered immediately and not injui ' ed. W£T ? ? OCT tS ' - Vc A K p I 2 Sailors Fall, Only 1 Is Saved The Navy has called off the search for a helicopter crewman who fell off the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk 130 miles at sea Monday night. The carrier, here lor op- erational readiness trials prior to Viet Nam duty, docked at Pearl Harbor yes- terday. Some 2,500 sailors with searchlights looked for the lost man through to dawn. A second sailor who fell in the water at the same time was picked up by a lifeboat immediately a n d was not injured. He was identified as 2 CI. aviation electronics techni- cian WiUiam D. Cook, an eight-year Navy veteran. Cook was the first on to fall. He was standing on the ship ' s forward elevator which brings planes up from the hangar deck to the flight deck. The ship made a turn just as he stepped back, and he toppled overboard. When I first hit the wa- ter, I began to swim away from the ship, Cook said. I started to shout, and I guess I did a pretty good job of it because they heard me all the way up on the flight deck (some 85 feet above the water). When the man over- board warning was given, the ship ' s skipper ordered a hard turn so Cook wouldn ' t get caught in the screws. The hard turn tossed the helicopter crewman off the ' other side of the canier. He is presumed drowned, and his name was withheld j pending notification of next ' of kin.
