CR DIVISION Communications is the key to success in any operation and nowhere is it more important than with forces operating in the Persian Gulf. In Communications Department ' s CR Division the radiomen are the voice and ears of La Salle and the Navy in the Middle East. Daily they send and receive upwards of 800 messages using a variety of circuits and equipment. Satellite communications, UHF and VHF are most common with a secure voice network also used. These messages can include operational orders, notification of personnel orders, administrative traffic, emergency data, even personal telegrams from home. Our most ready means of receiving the latest news and sports is through La Salle ' s Radio Shack. In addition to serving the ship and the Middle East Force staff, the radiomen of the Great White Ghost are also the relay station for other ships and units of Middle East Force. The Communications Officer is LT Moran and RMCM Green is the CR Division Officer. RMC Batz and RMC Wright are on hand to guarantee La Salle can communicate on demand, day or night. To do this, the RM ' s must carefully blend speed and attention to detail to provide La Salle and the Navy with the key to success. G. Wright P. Lawrence M.
