This is their story-a story of war, peace, the problems of peace-a story of valor and fame. Five ships made LEXINGTON what it is today. 1 , QVUJZQ, ww X, X .Q . K Nw 9. iiire sailed im llilieiriy I 2 THIS IS THE ATTACK AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS LEXINGTON. It is a proud and illustrious vessel-a ship with an exciting tale to tell. LEXINGTON has walked hand in hand with American history for almost 200 years, tour previous ships and their brave crews laying the path for CVA I6. LEXINGTON-ea name older than the United States itself, a title borne proudly by five men-ot-war in the United States Navy. The year is I775. The United States of America is not yet born, the Declaration of Independence is not yet a reality. The seed of rebellion has been sown though, and the settlers of the New World yearn to have a government to call their own. Rumors seep through to the British that the settlers are stor- ing arms in the city of Concord, Massachusetts. Eight hundred English troops are dispatched to destroy or confiscate the ma- terial. Nlarching to Concord they are unhampered and their progress is quick-until they reach a small town inhabited mostly by farmers. The town is of no signiflcance, some small place called LEXINGTON. As they crossed the bridge a band of 70 farmers armed with muskets appear on the opposite end, blocking their path. The British commander, angered by the insult, orders the small band to disperse. They stand fast, undaunted by the threat. The order is given to fire, and the shot heard round the world is discharged. The Revolutionary War has begun. On the sound waves of that shot ride two namesg LEXINGTON and MINUTEMEN. With the beginning of the War for Freedom, the name LEXING- TON stood as a symbol to the unorganized settlers. It was here where the power of the British was first challenged, it was here where the fight began, it was here where the spirit was born. 1 In March, I776 the Marine Committee ot the Continental Congress met in Philadelphia. One member spoke of a Maryland brig :in Philadelphia which was ideal to tight oFF British ships and sug- ,. gested that the committee purchase it. . The vessel in question was the 86-toot brig WILD DUCK-trim, pierced for I7 guns and equipped with I6 tour-pounders. On March 22, I776, following a brief reconditioning period, the ship was commissioned. ' For 18 months the flrst LEXINGTON participated against the British, protecting American coastal trade. ln September, 1777 she drew the tlre of the HMS ALERT. The smaller American ship's guns were ineltective against the larger British man-ot- war girded with 76 guns. After a shot chase LEXINGTON was captured and a British prize crew returned her' to England. This small brig, although captured, did not dishonor the name LEXINGTON. She was chased down by a tar superior ship, more than twice her size. This LEX had been decisive in the capture of I8 British merchantmen and two large sloops. On June II, l826, the Sloop ot War LEXINGTON was commis- sioned and sent to protect American fishing vessels oft the coast of Labrador. In T843 she sailed to the Mediterranean and several years later was sent to the Pacific Squadron. During the Mexican War LEXINGTON operated along the coast ot California, assisting in the blockade of Mexican ships. The gallant sloop returned to the East in the early l85O's and shortly after ioined Commodore Matthew C. Perry's Expedition to Japan. She remained in the Far East tor two years and returned to New York in T855 where she was decommissioned and sold.

In the winter of l929 the Pacific Northwest had a very severe cold spell. Because of the freezing conditions the hydro- electric power supply of Tacoma was cut off. Whoever thought of using the LEX for such a iob I don't know, but we steamed up there and tied up beside the Coleman dock. For three months her power plant furnished all that was needed for the community with some to spare. That tremendous power came into play again in T934 when it was decided the see what the old girl could do in a speed run. We left San Pedro and less than 75 hours later anchored off Honolulu .... The dear old LEX was tlrst in everything. Every war game the Fleet had, she came through in tlnding the enemy tlrst... At the outbreak of World War Two LEXINGTON was prepared to do her job. The men of this ship were exceptionally pround of her, and never called her LEXINGTON. She was always the Old Girl, the Old Lady, Lady Lex or the Big Girl. The Pacific campaign confinued aT a ferocious pace, and The Old Girls parf in The fighf was To be shorT-lived. On May 5, LEXINGTON and YORKTOWN ioined forces in The Coral Sea, searching for a fIeeT of Japanese carriers. On May 6, The Japanese carrier force was also sfeaming in The Coral Sea in search of The American Task force. Early on The morning of May 7 everyone was up early. The air was full of Tension as The opposing forces groped Toward one anofher. Scoufing planes were ouT early. AT 0730 a YORKTOWN piloT reporfed sighTing a Japanese scoufer-The American posifion was now known. AT 0800 The news came Through- Jap fleeT-one carrier, Three heavy cruisers, six destroyers-180 miles, course 120, speed 20 knoTs. WesTnorThwesT.

The opponents knew each oTher's posifion, and The Japanese carriers SHOKAKU and ZUIKAKU were in The area. AfTer LEXINGTON and YORKTOWN launched Their lasT sfrike aircraff, silence fell over The Task force. There was no doubf Thaf a heavy Japanese air group would aTTack, and each man waiTed for The inevifable. From The lMC:' KATIE TO CARRIER. BIG FORCE OF ENEMY AIRCRAFT COMING IN FROM RIGHT AHEAD. THEY ARE 60 MILES AWAY. All hands manned Their baTTle sfafions, braced for The aTTack. LEXINGTON was sfeaming on The edge of The Task force, wiTh no proTecTing screen. A V More Than a hundred enemy aircrafT flew over in The next quarTer hour, The maioriTy being Torpedo planes and dive-bom- bers. As fasT as iT had begun iT was over-The TlrsT engagemenl' beTween ships wiThouT having even seen each oTher. LEXINGTON was noT so forTunaTe, for she had been The obiecT of The aTTack. DUTY-An artist's conception shows the fourth USS Lexing- ton, CV-2, tied alongside a pier in Tacoma where she was ordered in 1928 to stand by and supply power to that city then suffering from a severe power shortage. The Lexington was the only ship in the area at that time with facilities for supplying the needed power. . D 5 The ship shuddered violently tive times during The short battle- struck five Times in as many minutes by Torpedoes, all on The port side. Surprisingly the ship was holding speed, thpugh listing slightly. ln The bowels of The ship The Engineering Officer and his men were already pumping fuel from one side To The other Toveliminate The list. ln his summary The Engineering Officer said l would suggest, Captain, if you must Take any more Torpedoes, Take Them on The starboard side. Suddenly a shattering roar ripped Through LEXINGTON. Fires spread quickly and many men were killed in The blast. Fire parties manned Their stations but The confiagration soon surrounded Them and raged out of control. The crew fought The fires for hours to save The Old Girl. The injured were Taken To The hangar deck and immediately re- lieved by men Topside. By afternoon fires engulfed The machine shops where a number of l000 pound bombs were stored. AT i630 The Skipper ordered all men Topside To Abandon Ship. One particular group commander had his men gathered about him on The flight deck and was speaking To Them about The fortunes of war. One of his men approached him and reported that he had finished fitting an accessory on his plane's pump. Took you a long Time, The Commander said. Yes, Sir.. .had to draw iT from stores and had an awful iob getting To iT. There's a Terrible fire down There. ln another instance someone remembered to save The ice cream. Some fliers were using Their little yellow life rafts To escape. One crew chief got into a raft and started to paddle away. An OTTicer whistled To him and The man paddled all The way back. What do you want, sir? Nothing!-just wanted To say you look fine and that iT is only 4000 miles To Australia. The captain made his last round of the ship, Then started down a line in the after section. A tremendous blast lit up the twi- light sky and shook all the ships in the area. Clt was later learned that the captain and exec were on the lines when this occurred, and the blast shook them loose and dumped them into the water where they were picked up by some of their own men in raftsl. Much later a muster revealed that 92 per cent of the crew were picked up by the destroyers and cruisers. - The word was passed to evacuate The area, for The tremendous light from The fire would surely attract lurking submarines. The ships pulled out, and men lined The sides and watched The illumina- tion from Their great ship in The night sky. A destroyer was ordered to stand back and send Torpedoes into The LEXINGTON hull. When four Torpedoes belted into The star- board Sldef The great ship groaned and slowly settled. She did not go down head first nor tail first. The Old Lady died with great dignity. x The crew of The TourTh LEXINGTON hoped They would be kepT TogeTher and senT To a new carrier. Their services were needed immediaTely in The war Though. The individual MinuTemen wenT Their separaTe ways To carry on The TighT. Meanwhile, The hull of a huge carrier resTed on The ways af The Fore River Shipyard in Quincy, Mass. On .lune l6Th a Telegram saT on The desk of Secrefary of The Navy, Frank Knox, in Washing- Ton. He read iT and a smile came over his Tace. IT was from The presidenT of The Fore River Workers, and he spoke for 23,000 workers in The yards. The telegram explained that in 1925 the fourth LEXINGTON was built in that very shipyard, and now she was sunk. It went on to tell that the loss was a personal one to many in the Fore River Yards who had worked on CV2 and were still employed there. The carrier resting on the weys had a simple designation, CV16. Future name: USS CABOT. Could The new ship be named LEXINGTON? An answer reTurned The same day-PERGRA. The news was passed on, and work on CVT6 increased Three-Told. On SepTember 26, i942 she was launched, one year ahead of schedule. AT The launching RADM F.C. Sherman, USN, Commanding OTTicer of The old LEXINGTON said: Today The new LEXINGTON Takes up where The old leTT off. May her career be full of glorious achievemenT. She will help carry ouT our pledge-ThaT freedom shall noT perish from This earTh. The ship slid down The ways, eager To avenge The deaTh of her namesake. In July, T943 CVAT6 ioined The SEVENTH FLEET, ready To Take up The TighT, ready To carry on where The Old Girl had lefT off. 31 new lceixiimgloui -Tillie same llfnglluil LEXlNGTON'S first mission was a raid on Tarawa late in Septem- ber, I943. The Allies were starting to island hop, the cruel, bloody push back across the Pacific. The first LEXINGTON stab into Japanese forces came during the Gilbert Islands campaign in November. On December 4th the new Lady Lex drew her baptism of fire-a torpedo into the starboard side. Lookouts on the starboard wings spotted the torpedo planes and LEXINGTON was first in the task group to open fire. The first two planes blew up in the air, victims of five inch shells. A large force of enemy planes turned back, but it was apparent that a night attack was imminent since the element of surprise was lost. At T846 they returned and the ship underwent an attack for the next seven hours. It was times like this that the men spent I5 to 20 hours at their battle stations. The cooks prepared sandwiches which were taken to each station by messeger. From the LEXINGTON log, December 4, 1943 : At 1925 bogies began closing and the Task Group began flring. Both groups were meneuvering at high speeds on evasive courses, and flring by the screen was continuous. To those with topside battle stations it seemed like a long, drawn out, unreal dream-the ship silently steaming through the water, throwing out a brilliant phospherescent wake, the moonlight reflected against the planes on the flight deck, and all the while the bright streamers of tracer bullets and the flash of five-inch bursts from the ships of the screen flring at unseen targets. At 2l5O fioat lights were dropped in the water to guide the attackers to the target. At 2322 four parachute flares appeared on the port beam. They were beautifully placed to silhouette the ship, and it was obvious that we had been picked out as the target. At 2325 the ship opened fire, bogies were closing in fast on the starboard bow. A torpedo was seen to drop from a Betty on the starboard beam who was immediately tired on, but came in close and got away at high speed directly over the ship. At 2327 the torpedo hit. The ship settled five feet to star- board and lost steering control. reieertecdl eurrrllr by ielrre rese Limping away after the battle, ships company quickly extinguished several small fires and regained Steerage. The Lady returned to Pearl Harbor and later to Bremerton for repairs. Meanwhile, in the first of a chain reaction, LEXINGTON was reported sunk by Tokyo Rose. Fully restored, LEXINGTON returned to the fight and struck the Japanese forces again and again. In the states she was the symbol of the carrier fight in the Pacific. The name echoed from the main- land and shot across the ocean to Japan. Soon LEXINGTON became known as the Blue Ghost. Many reasons were attributed to the origin of this nickname, but two predominate. First, following each Tokyo Rose report of her having been sunk, she reappeared-a ghost ship. Secondly she was the only carrier in the fleet without camouflage, and from a distance she appeared blue. One thing is for certain- Tokyo Rose herself originated Blue Ghost. The name caught on fast--as did respect for her. P The last months of the war passed in hectic activity. Up the Solomon chain, through the Carolines, Bouganville, New Guinea. Victory in Europe is followed by Victory in the Pacific. On Septem- ber 5th, l945 LEXINGTON steamed into Tokyo Bay and rested for the first time in 67 days. The war was over. The Blue Ghost slowly moved out of Tokyo Bay in early December, l945. Moving into the open sea she picked up speed, eager to return home once more. In i946 she was placed in the Pacific Reserve Fleet and shortly afterwards de-activated in Puget' Sound. illaa maatlnllaall yaars The years passed and CVA16 sat in mothballs. The Korean Conflict came and went, the Cold War alternating between thaw and frost as the Communist menace grew. As the situation in the Far East grew increasingly tense, it was agreed that the SEVENTH FLEET must be strengthened. LEX- INGTON was called back to active duty, and in August 1955 returned to sea once more, complete with modern accessories. She had a new flight deck, a mirror landing system, two power- ful steam catapults-once again Lady Lex was prepared to up- hold freedom, prepared to do her iob, the Minutemen of a new era. From 1955 to the present, LEXINGTON has made numerous de- ployments to the Far East-operating in SEVENTH FLEET, training in the FIRST FLEET. To the Japanese we are no longer the Blue Ghost. We are allies in a new era. Our men are Ambassadors in Blue! Last cruise l196O-611 LEXINGTON rushed to Laos when the situa- tion there tightened up. When the tension eased she pulled back, but remained in the general area for the following month. On November 9, 1961 LEXINGTON again edged away from the quaywall at North Island, San Diego to return to the SEVENTH FLEET. Hawaii was first on the itinerary, for an Operational Readiness Inspection. ln early December we chopped and once again ioined the Westpac team. last wastgaaa trip lar laflly lax One morning in late January the Voice ofthe Lexington came on the air with a special announcement. LEXINGTON is to sail around the horn atter this cruise to relieve the ANTIETAM. The new CONSTELLATION ICVA-64l, recently commissioned in New York, is to relieve us. The ANTIETAM, now an aged ship, is to be de- commissioned. This is an historic cruise, the last to Westpac waters for Lady Lex. ln the Gulf of Mexico LEXINGTON will be a training ship. Twenty years is a long time for a ship, especially after taking a maior part in the biggest conflict the world has ever known. More modern ships move to the front lines of defense. This is the nature of the seas, the natural course of events. More than likely LEXINGTON will end her years quietly, iust as the ANTIETAM has. Without a doubt, though, there will be another LEXINGTON in years to come. As long as there is a United States, there will be a LEXINGTON in her Fleet. There has been one since the Revolution, nearly 200 years agoe-the name is an honorable name that has always battered the enemy, always lived up to the tradition of that little farm town in Massachusetts.

Until then, this aircraft carrier will sail. Power for' peace in the Paciflc spells Navy. . The Army is here a small contingent in Korea: the Air Force' is here giant bases in Japan, Okinawa, Philippines 7- but the bulktof the iob is Navy. The Navy's primary means of destructive deliver- ance is the carrier, that is why LEXINGTON came to Westpac. ' 'A d The spirit of LEXINGTON is elusive.

More than 250 men are split into seven divisions-aero- Iogy, air control, radio, photography and signals. Number one is Big Ed Gendron-CDR lNavy typel and Department head. Organizing-planning-information processing. Everybody wants us to do something different. UNREPS we have to have. AIR OPS we have to have. EXERCISES we have to have. YARD AVAILABI- LITY we must absolutely have. Schedules have to be set and meshed. Sometimes they are changed. It is not true laccording to a usually unreliable sourcel that the office yeomen refuse to start typing a new schedule for two hours, knowing by past experience that changes are bound to occur. Higher commands must be placated. COMSEVENTHFLT will have his UNREP on the lOth, on the Ilth we get new DD's for plane guards, EMCON will be set on the I2th through I5th during EX- ERCISE GEDUNK, COMNAVAIRPAC will have sufficient flight time logged in by the Air Group, CINCPACfClNCPACFLT will have an operationally ready striking force. Other departments will be made happy. Gunnery will be allowed four hours on the morning of the I4th for a practice shoot. The Air Group will have night flying for necessary qualifications of pilots- buddy bombing and loft bombing practices will be scheduled-and so forth. Air Department will clear the Hangar Bay so Supply can move stores. Internally the different Operations divisions have divergent iobs. Organizing and planning is done from on high-when and where we do what. Information processing is done by the divisions. How's the weather? is an idle, conversation-starting phrase to most people. To LEXINGTON AG's of OA Division, however, it is the be-all and end-all of their existence. From daily radiosonde balloon ascents, teletype weather reports from hundreds of distant stations, facsimile recordings sent by Fleet Weather Centrals, and personal observation the weather-guessers know what the weather will be like as closely as the meteorogical science allows. Main Communications is the central office for OR Division and through it pass all incoming and outgoing messages. Equipment varies from the always reliable dit-dah key to newer, larger, faster electronic marvels. Radiomen must know more than the Morse Code- they must know teletype, transmitters, patch panels and how to get along with the Communications Watch Officer. Though under the Communications Otficer's aegis, the Signal Gang is a separate organization. Tactical messages sent mainly by flashing light is their specialty. Not for away from Main Comm is the murky darkness of CIC - fiilled with plotting tables, charts, display boards, and radars. Combat is a giant information processing machine, many small bits of in- formation are collected, analyzed and evaluated against the Big Picture-for use by the Bridge in any tactical situation. Adjacent to dim CIC is dim CCA. This means Carrier Controlled Approach room and is manned by the bright eyed, always sober Air Controlmen of OC Division. The Air Picture is their problem- where each plane is at all times and how it is doing. The Really Big Overall Picture is in Air Intelligence. Amongst numerous charts, diagrams and books, the strategic capability of the ship and all potential enemies is kept up to date by AI. big- gest problem is remembering which pins stand for which. Thumb tack poisoning is a cornmon occupational ailment. , Working directly with Air lntellignce is the Operations Depart- ments' Photographers of OP Division. Every take-off and landing is put on film. Every identilication photo is taken by OP. Their lab stays open 24 hours a day-it has to, to get the work done. One thing you have to consider when talking about gathering information-it takes equipment. Lots of it and each piece damned complicated. Keeping the gear working is the iob of OE Division.

This responsibility appears to be a broad one and iT is. People sometimes wonder how a ship of The vintage of LEXINGTON can continue to steam at continuous high speeds and meet all operational commitments. This famous LEXINGTON reliability is no accident. Lex Snipes are not always in a position to be observed by The visitor or casual shipboard observer, but as long as The ship is able to steam, recover, and launch aircraft you know LEX engineers are on The iob. The department is a large public works organization of approxi- mately 525 men and T6 officers. The services provided are almost too numerous to mention and They are vital to not only The oper- ation of The ship but The health and comfort of The crew as well. Without engineering There would be no electrical power, ventilation, heating, air conditioning, refrigeration, water, aviator's oxygen, plumbing, carpenter work, locksmith work, or hull repair. Coffee pots are repaired free of charge and this may be The most vital service of oll. salty commancler The tive divisions of the department found plenty to keep them busy aboard and ashore during the course of the cruise. Auxiliaries division found several problems To keep Them busy. The change SGH-y ghiefg back and forth from hot to cold weather kept The steam heat and air conditioning gangs on their toes. The aviation and boat crane kept hydraulics personnel wondering what would happen next. l O2N2 personnel proved that an outstanding group of technicians can make air practically without a plant. If there are any heroes on this cruise they belong to the boiler division. Whenever any time is spent in the South China Sea it is uncomfortable for all hands but particularly so for B Division per- sonnel. They may not particularly like the extreme heat but the way they work and stand watch in the T30 degree plus temp- eratures you would never guess it. Everyone has something electrical which makes a friend in E Di- vision a real asset. Keeping the TMC, telephone switchboard, distribution switchboards, mirror landing system, fans, sound-powered phones, battle lanterns, pitometer log, motor-generator sets oper- ating has kept The electrician mates and interior communications electricians going day and night. salty warrant Mike division personnel kept their engines, generators, pumps, and evaporators operating at peak efficiency throughout the cruise. No matter what speed the Captain called for or how fast the crew used water, and they used an enormous amount, it seem that Main Engines Division personnel could come up with a little extra. The Repair Division found themselves without any Solariums or cages to build for airedales but nevertheless found plenty to do. A ship as old as LEX requires a tremendous amount of repair work but R Division personnel were equal to the task. Both UDT iurinal drain techniciansl men and Damage Controlmen pursued a vigorous program of readying the ship for battle in their separate ways. Between San Diego in early November T96T and San Diego in late May T962 LEXINGTON will have steamed neary 50,000 miles and will have consumed millions of gallons of fuel oil iNSFOl. Propelling 42,000 tons through the water for 65 months without major incident is a large order and is primarily one of never ending routine. When each member ofthe team does his routine iob in an excellent manner a successful cruise is achieved. This has been a successful cruise from an engineering standpoint. osborne sometimes we have fo make our own paris. faleni musf be everywhere. an aviation gasoline pump room. fools and paris are inve nioried daily we have our own lighi' and power company service-excellenf price-free engineering watches are often boring and always hof. fuel-oil purify fest repairing head seis. fwo happy chiefs cmd ci coffee poi Q e9, control ponel in number Four engine room. pressure readings ore logged every hour. frighfj note the complex orroy of elecfricol cabling in the boclcground. the friclc is fo turn the righf knob, valve, and wheel of the right time. 1 1 3 I K arc-welding is one function of repair division. E. fog Foan1 stations. i are manned in several key areas at all Lfimes torn 'A Fast, reliable' fire-fighting. LEXINGTON machine shops are areas of constant activity. LEXlNGTON'S Gun Boss, Commander Arnold, bosses what is in effect two departments plus several splinter groups. Sometimes Gunnery is described as eleven divisions looking for a department. Most divisions belong to one of two main functional areas, deck and ordnance. The deck divisions-first, second, and third-are manned by the last real sailors. These men deal with ropes and knots, block and tackles, old fashioned seamanship. They are the boatswainmates and they take care of equipment from foc's'le to fantail. Six divisions belong to the ordnance group-Gi, G2, GM, Fifth, Fox, and W. If that hobglob of titles does not con- fuse the uninitiated nothing will. The G group moves most of the actual ordnance around-particulary aircraft arma- ments. GM specifically means Guided Missiles. Fifth division mans and maintains most of the ship's gunsf5,l38's, seven of them. Fox is for Fire Control and they worry over the computers that operate the big guns isorry, no firehosesi. W takes care of that ordnance that the other divisions do not. Clear enough? 'f' The other two Gunnery divisions are Minuteman Guard and the Marine Detachment both of which guard certain sensitive areas and maintain necessary physical security. Moving in and out' of port and during unreps the seaman- ship skills of Deck come most into play. They are the men who hoist or lower the 20 ton anchors and handle the lines. They are the men who rig up the receiving stations for the tons of goods Supply has ordered. No matter how modern the Navy gets, it will always need the old-fashioned skills of these true mariners. T The ship can steam for thousands of miles quite com- fortably. We can fly planes by the hundreds. Our purpose in being deployed will not be fulfilled by iust this however. We are basically a man of war in the US Navy and as such a tool of our overall foreign policy. But our utility as a tool can only be realized by our ability to move and deliver armament. That is the primary mission of the Ord- nance Group. Our aircraft carry mis- siles, rockets, and bombs of many sizes and shapes. Q Q Storing them, arming them, moving them around are the duties of the various crews of Gi, G2 and GM divisions. The LEXINGTON has her own defensive capability apart from her Air Group-in her 50, 38 gun mounts. Caring for them are the men of Fifth divisiongthe gunnersmates. The guns have seen a lot of wear and tear. Keeping them in good, working order is a big iob. assembling the missiles, Keeping the guns able to shoot may befFifth's iob but how and where they shoot is Fox Divisions chief worry. These are the Fire Control Technicians. Firing a gun at sea is not like firing one on land. The ship moves and rolls and yaws. Movements are in three dimensions. ln addition, the attacking iet plane moves fast and the problem of where it is going to be at what time is a maior problem in itself. We have computers to solve the problem. But all of man's inventions must be run by menfand fixed by men when they do not work. That's Fox's job. The LEXINGTON Marine Detachment is part of ship's com- pany and listed under the Gunnery Department. However, MARDET is more of a separate command. A carrier's Marines have the basic iob of providing amphibious capability. They train and lead the Landing Party. For Gunnery they man two of the seven gun mounts during all firing exercises and would do so in actual combat. For the ship as a whole they provide most of the basic physical internal security by guarding areas containing highly classified materials and disciplining the occasional malcreant who ends up in the brig. Guarding spaces is a manpower consuming iob however and another Gunnery division augments MARDET in this chore -the Minuteman Guard. Security is a maior consideration in any military area, as it needs to be. The MMGD provides much of LEXlNGTON'S security. That is the Gunnery Department. Organizationally they have a Department Head, and four assistants-Special Weapons Officer, Ordnance Officer, Missiles Officer, and First Lieutenant. Below them are the eleve'n divisions ex- plained above. Job wise they range from the bo's'n mate of the watch blowing taps to the man 'in the incinerator burning classified trash to the men on the gun mounts trying like anything to hit that towed spar.

The Deck divisions man the receiving stations and Supply supervises getting the supplies stowed below. T A major UNREP involves hundreds of tons of gear and four replenishment ships - an AE for ammunition, an AO for fuel, an AF for food, and an AKS for general stores. lt is the time for true seamanship and skills of the mariner. lt is several hours of back-breaking labor for over 400 men in the work- ing party. The casual observer might wonder, why not bring stores aboard when in port? Answer: the fast carrier naval striking force must be flexible, mobile, -V 1 and able to stay at sea for protracted periods of mcdonald time. UNREPS make that possible. During the cruise LEXINGTON will receive three fourths of her 5 million pounds of supplies by sea. l 1 l l mcdonald mcdonclld ostroski firing of . . the drone mcdonald flaherty us marines 7962 sfyle I 1 fhe marine defachmeni provides infernal physical securiiy by guarding sensifive areas.

There is no corner grocery-so they feed 3000 men three meals a day. There is no local laundromat - so they launder 20 tons of clothing a week. There is no nearby bar- bershop-so they clip 200 men a day. All free. During Underway Replenishments, supply personnel can be seen on the Hangar Bay moving tons of food, equipment, spare parts. At no other time can you see so many together-their iobs are too widely dispersed. More difficult questions are: Who does the ordering? Where does all the stuff come from? Why did we order what we did when we did? Who pays for it? This is logistics, the crux of Supply's iob. Food is the number one common denominator. On an aver- age day you will have a couple of eggs with toast, butter, fried potatoes, ham and coffee for breakfast. During the day a pound of meat, a quart of milk, and other assorted foodstuffs go down the hatch. Now multiply that by 3000. Ordering the food, storing it, preparing it, cleaning up-all Supply functions. Equipment is another of Supply's problems. Other people run the gear and other people repair the gear-but Supply gets it aboard in the first place. Let's start at the beginning. Armed with a DDll50 lseveral copiesl go down to GSK or Aviation Supply. You want a dozen pencils or a ream of paper or red lead. That's easy and the duty storekeeper will have it in your hands in a iiffy. Perhaps your desires are a bit more exotic - running to turbine assemblies, pump suction valves or a l00 lb. bottle of helium. No problem for Supply. lf they don't have it, they will get it. Chances are though that what you want is in one of the storerooms. This is because the ship stocks as a matter of routine 58,000 separate items, Aviation Supply keeps 22,000 of these iust to keep the air- planes running. But if the storekeeper comes back with empty hands, do not despair. ln Westpac alittle paper work, a quick message, and NSD Yokosuka or Subic will deliver what you want. lf the part is not there, the request will go all the way back to NSC Oakland and, if still necessary, the search will continue through the entire Navy Supply System and even back to the manufacturer in some cases. Yours was not the only request by a long shot. Communi- cations wants a new mimeograph machine, the hobby shop needs more airplane models, Navigation desires wiper blades for the Bridge, and so forth. Handling all requests-and filling them all takes a lot of work and a lot of organization. The third maior function of Supply is Human Services. Last week you sent two sets of dungarees and five pair of socks to the laundry. The rest of the division turned in their dirty clothes. Every division did. Every chief and officer did. Twenty tons of clothing and every bit laundered and returned. Supply people man the gedunk stand, happily dispensing cookies, candies, and soft ice cream to chubby sailors. Moreover, you had a pair of shoes heeled. You got a haircut. At the ship's store you bought soap, a roll of film, and a pack of razor blades. Even more important was the payline you stood in last week. That was the best stop of the week but all were necessary. Stewards maintain the efficiency and comfort of the Wardroom. All are run by Supply. That is how Supply makes life liveable aboard LEXINGTON- iust as they do on every ship in the Fleet.

Aircraft are the center of everyone's attention. We have our own weather station so we know when it is safe to fly. Our speed and direction while operating is determined by aircraft-getting wind across the deck, steering into the wind to launch planes, out of the wind to operate the helos. And everywhere is the noise and heat of iet blast. Our purpose in being and our primary offense and defense is aircraft. Flying the planes and keeping them operationally ready is the iob ofthe Air Group, a separate organization attached to LEXINGTON for the deployment. Direct ship support to the Air Group comes mainly through the ship's Air Department which has cognizance over the hangar deck and flight deck and aircraft s the -it-Q-at Irrit- air cag l4 dets: v-T catapults vf 141 2 arresting gear vmf 323 3 hangar deck va 144 4 fuel va 745 -6 maintenance va T46 vah 4 vfp 63 vaw 71 vaw 73 hui fueling station . Militarily, the Air Group is balanced to carry out a number of roles. Light attack missions are carried out by the FJ and AD. The giant, twin engine A3D is a maior weapons system designed for heavy attack. The all-weather F3H and the supersonic F8U act as fighters. Supporting functions are carried out by F8U photo aerial reconnaisance planes and WF and AD-5Q for airborne early warning. Helicoptors provide plane guard, and search and rescue capability. Each day more than T00 sorties are scheduled. The attack planes simulate strike missions against theoretical targets. Training also often centers on navigation hops or on ordnace delivery techniques. The fighters practice their CAP lCombat Air Patroll mission. CAP is LEXINGTON'S first line of defense as it attempts to intercept in- coming enemy strikes. During his time in the air the fighter pilot practices tactics. Often the two types of aircraft will engage in a friendly war with the returning attack planes acting as the enemy and the CAP running intercepts on them. The Air Department aids in this process by getting the plane in the air, recovering it, fueling it, and getting it back in the air. The department also provides many key maintenance facilities and mechaincs. Flight operations-launch and land, launch and land-is a tremendous drama enacted T4 or more hours a day by carriers at sea. Serving as players are some 200 men on the flight deck and hangar deck, each with a specific role. Forward on the flight deck one group operates and maintains the catapults, aft, another group worries over the equally complex arresting gear system. Blue-shirted plane pushers and phone talkers and yellow-shirted tractor driver muscle the planes around. Fueling is handled by another group in red-shirts. The hangar deck pushing and pulling crews account for 70 more men. The biggest problem for the Air Department is space. The flight deck and hangar deck look huge when empty but the aircraft fill them up in a hurry. Anyone walking across the hangar deck at night has probably tripped on a tie-down or banged his head on a wing. The second biggest problem is fatigue. When we operate aircraft from 0800 to 2200 it means these men go to their stations at 0630 to spot aircraft, light off the cats and get ready for the first launch. With the last plane on deck an additional hour and a half of work is necessary before securing-each plane has to be moved to its designated space and securely tied down. This makes for a long day. .QQ . catching the bridle after a launch is often a dan- gerous, risky, wet proposi- tion. ens laniz crash and salvage officer on the flight cleclc ihe planes are spoifecl for launch by the sweai of men's brows and faithful, powerful diesel fracfors.

With precise courses mandatory due to operational commitments, the necessity to be at a certain point on the vast Pacific at a specific time, proper navigation spells success or failure for us as a fighting team. Navigation's iob is this: point a handful of hardware at the heavens and record some numbers. Proceed to the chart house and gather about you astronomical tables, dividers, parallel rules, sharp pencils. Thus is the ship's position plotted again. In days of yore, quartermasters provided quarters and rations for the troops. Today their chief duties are navigating and keeping the official ship's log. Operation of the auxiliary emergency steering stations and steering of the ship during general drills, com- ing alongside an UNREP ship, or coming in or going out of port are other duties of N Division. exact bearing to a landfall is talcen through an alidade. degaussing-LEXINGTON becomes magnetized passing through the earths' field, and this effect must be neutralized. cleaning powder and swab is every sailors' occasional companion. the bridge area is a proud showcase of a proud ship. proper rendering of honors in an important collateral duty of LEXlNGTON'S navigator. forms The Executive Officer heads LEXINGTON Administration. He is the man who places into effect policies of the Com- manding Officer. ADMIN has under its aegis the library, legal office, personnel office, education and training, hobby shop, athletic gear locker, public information office, public relations olfice, the MAA force, Chaplain's office, print shop, and post office. The LEXINGTON library is a well-rounded power plant of knowledge, containing everything from historical fiction to college texts. The library provides many valuable hours of cost-free entertainment and instruction to the crew. Calling Perry Mason. That is our Legal Officer. He and his staff process disciplinary cases and assist personnel who become involved in civil offenses. Are you going up for rate? Want to learn more about Japan? The E and T Office provides books, pamphlets, and films and administers advancement-in-rating examinations. They also provide high school or college credits through USAFI courses to all Minutemen. The Hobby Shop provides materials, lockers, and working space to model builders, leathercraft experts, and handi- craft doodlers. The Athletic Gear Locker furnishes baseballs, footballs, golf clubs, tennis rackets and other materials to sport enthusiasts. . The jingle of typewriters mingles with the music of the Limelighters and the Kingston Trio as the PIO staff pieces together the daily Minuteman. PIO assists Public Relations in conducting on-board tours and handles the Fleet Home Town News program. They also assemble the mater- ial for the at-sea Voice of the Lexington news broadcasts. Public Relations arranges on-board tours for civilian groups and administers the Handclasp program. PR conducts SCORE program interviews and handles various functions of leadership training. The Chaplain's Office consists of a Protestant and a Catholic Chaplain and their assistants. They conduct Divine Services and provide spiritual counsel. They also arrange excellent guided tours of the various ports of call. The Master-at-Arms Force efficiently polices the ship, keeping a sharp eye on the military conduct and appear- ance of all hands. The MAA Staff helps to conduct orderly pay lines. Print Shop manufactures the daily Minuteman and keeps the presses hot rolling out various forms, signs, pamphlets, and instructions needed. Mail Call -the most welcome sound aboard is the signal that the Post Office crew has been hard at work sorting out the days' mail. The Post Office also sells stamps, postcards, and postal money orders. For quantity of paperwork, Personnel is the place to go. Any change in the status of a crewmember involves this office: checking aboard, leaving the ship, emergency or regular leave, muster reports, change in rate, disciplinary action. If it affects the man, it affects Personnel. The Admin Office itself, together with the Captain's Office, provides the official lines of communication between LEXINGTON and other commands, maintains officer personnel records, and promulgates to the ship as a whole the various instructions and directives received. mr. administration reviews a few of the thousands of directives which affect LEXINGTON. as executive officer, cdr. moore puts into egect the commanding officer's policies. fulfilling the spiritual needs of men at sea is the always rewarding duty of the Navy's Chaplain Corps. fleet home fown news radio rapes are ralcen by rhe public information office. spray painting the personnel office. sorfing chrisfmas mail fitness The Navy takes care of its own is a proud phrase and aptly describes the aim and function of LEXlNGTON'S Medical and Dental Departments. Complete medical facilities are available to every man. A man cannot work efficiently when ill, and if too many men are ill or disabled the iob of this carrier could not be properly carried out. The greatest single project for the medics started at the begin- ning of the cruise and aFfected every man aboard. Overseas shots-seven innoculations against common communicable diseases more prevalent in the East. Coming at the same time as President Kennedy's Physical Fitness Program proved to be poor planning. Remember struggling through push-ups with sore arms? Dangers to men working on a ship, operating around aircraft, and flying aircraft are legion. Everything from cut fingers from slicing potatoes to smashed toes from dropping a bomb shape to serious injury to a ditched pilot. Emergency medical treatment is thorough, fast, round-the-clock. Between the extremes of innoculations and emergency treatments come the bulk of day-to-day operations for our corpsmen. These range from routine physical examination to more spectacular general surgery. Appendectomies, hernias, cyst removal and the like are easily handled. First aid training and sanitation round out Medicals' iobs. The basics of how to react in an emergency and what to do Hrst must be taught to every man. Accidents have a way of happening at the least opportune times and a mans' life can be lost if all the spectators do is wait for the doc. Complete facilities for insuring dental health is the complementary half that rounds out the medical services available to each Min- uteman. Three dentists working full time in three modern chairs backed up by a fine staff of technicians is provided to insure the oral health of Lex's crew. ln addition, the Dental Department maintains an X-ray diagnosis room and a prosthetics laboratory for fabricating dentures. lenberg after seven overseas shots some feel better than others. visiting hours in sick bay. minor surgery is often a daily routine. here a cyst is being removed. x-rays for diagnosis and trained technicians in prosthetics back up our statt of Four dental officers. tooth extraction keeps dentists entertained and busy. a cake was not cut on number i,OOO. a modern, well-stocked pharmacy is an indespensible part of proper medicallztreatment. KLEX KLEX is staffed by the crew and broadcasts over channel five of the RRB system eight hours a day at sea. During the cruise KLEX kept up-to-date on the latest hits by having the newest records air mailed along with a weekly publication listing the reviews which rank each song according to its popularity back home. Music presented ranged from classical to popular, iazz, rock'n roll, western, big band and The Twist. KLEX, the hard work of the volunteer disk-iockeys, and the E division personnel who kept the station in opera- tion electrically, provided the crew with many hours of needed relaxation. To each person who contributed to KLEX operation-thanks for making it so successful. . IAND The LEXINGTON BAND was formed from l3 volunteers from the crew upon departure from CONUS in November, l96l. Affef only a month of rehearsal the band- dubbed Secondmen -provided music for the on board Christmas Show in Hanger Bay One. The Secondmen have since performed for a captain's inspection, a smoker, several unreps, the CAG-l4 chan9e of command ceremony, the Fly-Off Show, and other functions as needed. Their hard work and time spent have contributed to the high moral of LEXING- TON. Thanks to each member-well done.

The Japanese soak them up-even the latest craze, the twist- suku-suku, had Caught on. But the old festivals mark their year -dedicated to historical events or the passing seasons. The ferment which this dual process is causing is summed up by the Japan Times in an article about the theatre: Kabuki is a tradition and the tradition is richly and faithfully preserved, but. it is no longer a part of living except as a social center with a bit of snob appeal. . . Old Japan is not dead, but urbanization has pushed It into corners. r What more tired cliche exists than the one about old and new in Japan? Yet it is true. Western dress is the prevailing style, particularly for daytime and business wear-but the kimono is still worn and at many places of business, shoes are traded for slippers for the working day. Surrounded by the sea, dominated by mountains, the Japanese archipelago is comprised of four main islands- Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu, Hokkaido -home for 95 million people. This is equivalent to half the United States living in California. The four seasons are distinct in Japan, and the change of weather influences living habits and industry. Dominated by the God of Earth Fuji-yama, Japan's rugged mountain ranges run the length of the archipelago, leaving only HW arable land. The densely-forested mountains and pla- teaus give Japan one of the most com- plex terrains in the world. The ocean represents the lifeblood of Japan for the islands are not self- reliant Without trade the economy would collapse Without fish the peo ple would starve mitchell Democracy and its hand- maiden, women's suffrage, is struggling to grow on Nip- pon's soil. By law, everyone over 20 has the right to vote and the Japanese Go- vernment consists of the three standard independent branches: legislative, ad- ministrative and judical. Yet the code of ethics for the Japanese Woman can still be expressed by the Three Obediencesf' single, she is obedient to her father, mar- ried, to her husband and Widowed, to her son. And the National Diet has at times conducted its business in a violent manner. mitchell mitchell Aligned with the West, Japan is entering a new era in her history. Her economy is booming-the system of capitalism and the individual entrepeneur has taken Iirm root. Though average per capita annual income is only S250 the Japanese people as a whole are enjoying a standard of living better than any they ever experienced before. This dynamic insular land will continue to play an important role World affairs. mitchell 89 A half-hour by train from Yokoska lies famed KAMAKURA home , o Great Buddha. Only one of many points of cultural interest, the great statue is a must on most tourists' lists. The image was cast in 1252 by Ono Goroemon, one of the leading sculptors of the time.

Half the fun was haggling over price-and even though no one got conned unless they wanted to, most of us did. Situated in the central part of Miura Peninsula, Yoko- suka has a population of 300,000. The city, which Hourished as the naval base of eastern Japan until 1945, is an important trade and fishing center boasting two line harbors-Yokosuka and Nagura. these pictures represent two of Y0k0SUkO'S main industries: watches and crystal glassware. YOKOSUKA exists not for the Japanese or the tourist- but for the US Navy. It is a vain imitation of the West- ern world offering entertain- ment and relief from the monotony of the Pacific. Thieves Alley sits right out- side the Base, getting there is simplicity itself: down the torii of adventure fthe browj, a two minute trip in a kamikaze cab, and a stop at the yen exchange and you are all set. l never mind why granny cioesn't want you to walk clown that street just keep going - ,,,..,.4.,,-, l 1 P ' .-ln. ice-slcofing of luke hcxkone. nichols chrans mcdoncdd mcdonclld mcdonald 1 The only fair conclusion about Japan and the japan- ese is that they are just as complex as America and the Americans. Opened by Perry, developed by the Meiji Restoration, a World War One ally, crushed 17 years ago, democracy imposed by MacArthur, the population explosion, the Asian plum in the East-West struggle-such is the amazing island chain oil the China mainland, Japan. Always in our thoughts is this nagging question: What do they think of us? To the children we are a novelty -talking a strange language and taller than papa-san. To those of our own generation We are the example of the American way of life, a pro- duct of a different environ- ment-to be watched and studied. To the middle-aged group, the businessmen, the counterparts of our parents we are the children of the land that defeated the Im- perial Army and Navy- perhaps they themselves wore arms against us. ,W f X Qlybwmm zz- 1, A If na' 1 i I tw I v F! 2? 1 K. ..

The Peak is the highest point in the Colony and is reached by a breath-taking trolley ride 5 Tiger Balm Gardens is the Asian answer to Disney- land.

I w hmalfeld hmalfeld IGGHI Across the Bay lies Kowloon, city of Nine Dragons, which is a wealthier area containing more elegant shops, the airport, and the last vis- tage of British Empire. The town of Kowloon contains the Colony's main industrial area, one of the two principal commercial dockyard wharves, and a large resi- dential suburb. Behind the rugged range of mountains lies the New Territories containing flat land for truck farm- ing, walled cities of ar- cheological interest, and the border with Commu- nist China. qngell ABERDEEN FISHING VILLAGE It is difficult to tell whether Hong Kong has more tailors or more restaurants. But of its restaurants none are better than the floating eateries of Aberdeen. Sea food is their specialty and the fish are picked by the hungry customer, live from tanks. Aberdeen lies to the south of Hong Kong Island, facing and shouldered against ex- clusive Repulse Bay-playground of the Colony's elite, particularly the British resi- dents. Aberdeen, apart from its restaurants, IS an area of abject poverty-scene of thou- sands of floating homes for a lost population that exists in spite of conditions that are only believed bv seeing. An estimated 100,000 persons live out their lives on small sampans in Aberdeen. 4 EVERYBODY WORKS IN HONGKONG 5 1 1 no ...AT EVERY AGE...

The Philippines are the southern anchor of SEATO and the United States' Hrmest ally in Asia. Subic Bay is one of the largest US Navy bases in the world, center of our operations in the South Pacific area. Hitting the beach in Subic, however, is far from the excitement of Hong Kong or Tokyo. Manila, the only true metropolitan area, is inaccessable from Subic Bay un- less one has overnight liberty-and even then it is a job getting there. Everyoneis enemy in the PI is the year-round heat: sometimes uncom- fortable, sometimes impossible. Most recreation was found right on the Subic Bay Base itself-movies, clubs, beaches, bowling, tennis courts. The civilian center outside the gates-Olongapo- has no major night clubs, good enter- tainment or properly paved roads. The generally shared opinion is that the only place worse than Olongapo is Cavite.

The firST smoker, held November 30, 1961 presented 10 boxing events with two KO's, one TKO, and seven decisions. The December 17 Smoker sported seven boxing events and a special halftime pugil-stick contest. Tag-team wrestling successfully made it's Smoker debute on Christmas Day, December 25, 1961. The Smoker featured one man-to-man event and one tag-team tussle. The boxers eked out six decisions, without any KO's or TKO's. Five hundred men witnessed a January 21, 1962 Smoker which resulted in two TKO's, three draws, and two decisions. On the same program, a Sumo wrestling event took place, the first of the cruise, in which Bernard Wainscott won two of three falls from Bill Simon. Lexington boxer Dave Widelski won the Best Boxer Award at the February 1st Fifth Inter-Service Invitational Boxing Smoker at Fleet Activities, Yokosuka. In the March 8, 1962 Smoker, fight fans saw one man-to-man wrestling event, one tag-team match, and among the boxers, two TKO's a decision, and a draw. Among the regular ring officials were referees Capt. Armstrong, MarDet, Red Oerline, and LTJG Carr, Ship's Gunner. J. B. Clonts, SN, refereed the wrestling events, and Lt. John P.

Aerographer mates' school, it is rumored, also includes a course in How to Get Along With People Who Do Not Like the Weather. This game is based on science, intuition, and luck. Flying is the purpose of our Air Group-but to fly, and fly safely the pilot must know the weather-at the ship, at his destination. No one factor determines air operations as much as the weather does. High points for OA Division during the l96l-2 cruise were Willie shipping for the cruise and loving every minute of it, Duff finding his coFfee cup after a five day search, midnight cemetary visits, and Yant falling in love lbut that is a separate storyl. Low points were generally reached the day after the night before, duty days, and the day before payday.

Red-lined status boards and announcements break the darkness and silence of the room, announcing the closing position of an enemy aircraft or bogey. This is the ship's Combat lnformation Centar. CIC collects tactical information from radio nets, intelligence and visual reports, and radar. The staff then displays the information on status boards and makes vertical plots which are evalutated by the Operations Officer and the CIC Officer. The evaluated information is then disseminated to the bridge, flag bridge, and ships in company via radio nets and flashing light. If the final evaluation warrants combat retaliation, the Combat Air Patrol launches interceptor fighters, General Quarters is sounded, and the destroyers and support ships are positioned into anti-submarine ancl anti-air screens and formations.

Early rising, seldom sleeping, First performs many and varied tasks during mooring and anchoring, and during underway replenishments, and less glamorous routine daily labors concerned with the cleanliness and maintenance of Officer's Country, forecastle, starboard wind tunnel, port and starboard sponsons and gear lockers. Our motto is: No clean spaces, no liberty card. First Division amply combines old-fashioned seaman- ship and muscle with an occasional assist from modern machinery. The first thing to impress the newcomer upon arrival in First is the uniformly high spirits and unity-one which no unhappy phenomenon can dam- pen, not even constant early reveille. f deck back row fl.

Y .-MW fi Eff. ae H ' Lay?-54:3 ens lackey second division officer O 0 O ' secciumdl cfllwlismrnt The importance of professional seamanship on ships of the T962 Navy is as significant as it was on the sailing vessels of our coutry's first fieet. Second divi- sion provides professional seamanship services to the LEXINGTON. We are proud of our abilities, the many crucial tasks assigned to our division indicate the confidence our superiors have in us. The scores of flawless under- way replenishments and refuelings which have earned us a well done is only in keeping with the out- standing record we have earned over the years. Seamanship is not our only endeavor. Nearly every man is enrolled in a course for advancement, in a USAFI group study course, or both. These courses pre- pare us for advancement in rating exams, for comple- tion of high school requirements and, in several cases, review of important subiects prior to taking college entrance examinations. The port wind tunnel has been the site of many and and varied lectures, from small boat handling and marlinspike seamanship to the responsibilities of man- hood and the comparison of Democracy and Com- munism. These informal discussions have paved the way to a better understanding of our duties and world events. We are proud division in a famous ship, we feel that our efforts to make Lady Lex an even finer ship have met with very satisfying results. de-clit l Z . , , r'gl1f,f,i-1'-1,41 -qsyf :JN 1,1-,iq - WW 'rs ri A rigging lhe quarlercleck l firsi' row kneeling U. to r.J: lucas joseph c. sn, smilh dewey lnl bm3, iensen donald r. sn, mccarlhy walter f. sn, second row: greer willard r. sn, schwarlz robert p. sa, eberly william d. sn, nichols charles e. sn, mcmichclel richard l. bm3, anders william p. bml, Zermeno manuel f. bm2, cooper cecil l. bm3, Shanks donald w. sn, gregory roberl h. sn, siackiel. sn, bailey allen r. sa.

Should the Chaplain decide to visit the accompany- ing escorts, the Lady Lex need fuel, armament, or chow , our small boys need a drink, Third Divi- sion, in coniunction with the two other deck divisions, is always Johnny-on-the-spot, ready to perform any time of the day or night. Whether it be chipping paint, rigging the High Line for Chaplain Carr, letting out the towing spar for aircraft target practice, or getting the ship's boats ready for operation and liberty call, the forty-five man complement of Third Division is always on the move. Third Division has charge of the Lady's back porch, ens braden two aft catwalks, Station Nine lThird's second homel, division officer and various spaces in Officer's Country. Along with these various duties, whenever G.Q. goes, Third mans Mt. 56, a few repair parties, and the starboard lifeboat for those who wish to fall over-board.

The scorpion, an appropriate mascot for the ship's arsenal, boarded the ship during a rearming in Pearl Harbor. The Medical Department attempted to route the dangerous pet with several varieties of chemical spray, but he still may be at large in the ship's magazine? G-2 Division paints and maintains the ship's maga- zines. lts men are responsible forthe ship's array of bombs and rockets, and they maintain the small arms arsenal. The men of G-2 Division store the personal weapons of the crewmen, issue Shore Patrol gear, and maintain the ship's recreational weapons.

All the Gunner's Mates of the division have received intensive technical training to fit them for the weapon work they are assigned. The daily routine of these men is filled with the performance of extremely intricate and precise proce- dures involved in test and assembly of their weapons. Proficiency of each man is constantly being improved by training in required procedures using weapons designed for such training use. Because of the classified nature of the weapons for which these men are re- sponsible, very few of the officers and men assigned to LEXINGTON who are not in the W Division have significant knowledge of the work that they do. This group of men, the W Division, are an im- portant part of the strike capability of LEXINGTON. When LEXINGTON is deployed in the WestPac area in support of the aims of the Free World, the W Division constantly maintains their weapons in a high state of readiness and reliability for use whenever strike operations may be required of LEXINGTON. These men, and their weapons, are dependable and ready. weapons Itig gerber tech monitor ltig wernes nuclear officer front row QI.

They carry on the mission of Marines aboard naval vessels that have always been a part of America's history. MARDET plays a large part in the ship's defense- manning two of the gun mounts and providing basic internal physical security by guarding sensitive areas. They are the backbone, the nucleus, of the Landing Party. Culpepper's Raiders have one mission: to kill the enemy-and one thing to say: show us the enemy. As all true Marines everywhere they are spit and polish-as the saying goes: if it does not move, paint it, if it does move, polish it. eleleellirruleiml 2nd lt ilaherty usmc executive officer firsf row CI. fo r.D: sullivan I. r.

The Division Officer is LTJG Ted Pope and his cohorts are ENS Bill Harvey and WO-I Archie Ventresca. Alfa Division is divided in seven gangs and is re- sponsible for most of the engineering equipment not directly involved with propulsion. The HYDRAULICS GANG is involved with the machinery that operates our large aircraft elevators, winches, anchor windlasses, and A-B crane. The STEAM HEAT GANG looks after the steam catapult system. Also the the scullery, laundry, and hot water equipment are theirs for the continuous repairs involved. The AIR CONDlTlONlNGfREFRlGERATlON GANG is responsible for all equipment that keeps our food stores at the proper temperature and the air conditioning in such important spaces as CIC, Ready Rooms, PriFly, and the Bridge. The AUXILIARIES GANG is primarily con- cerned with the high, medium, and low pressure air compressors and associated systems. The DIESEL GANG has responsibility for the opera- tion and maintenance of our two large emergency electrical generator diesel engines and the engines in all ship's boats. The MACHINE SHOP is often called on to fabricate various metal parts and fittings- everything from pump shafts to small brass gears. The O2N2 GANG operates and maintains the specialized equipment used in the production and storage of oxygen and nitrogen. Oxygen is used by pilots and the nitrogen to form an inert gas blanketing over highly combustable fuels carried aboard. ltig pope division officer Xilliairies dll! fffilulx 4 t . -. . ,, ,.

The LIGHTING SHOP is responsible for fluorescent and incandescent lighting, fiight deck lighting, running lights, searchlights, fans, II7 volt outlets, dress ship lights and batteries for aircraft and boats. Concerned primarily with equipment powered by 440 volts is the POWER SHOP. Equipment they main- tain includes electric fire pumps, deck winches and hoists, anchor windlasses, and vent sets. In addition, they rewind motors of all sizes for LEXINGTON and other ships. Generation and distribution of the ship's electrical power is the job of the DISTRIBUTION GANG. They have responsibility for the electrical components of the ship's turbogenerators and diesel generators, the switchboards, and all electrical equipment contained in engineering spaces. The AVIATION-ORDNANCE SHOP is responsible for the jet-starting motor-generator sets, and electrical components concerned with the sprinkling systems, elevators, catapults, arresting gear, and fueling stations. The Ship's gyro compasses and repeaters are one of the major responsibilities of the IC GANG.

Each of these engines consists primarily of a high pressure and low pressure turbine coupled to a reduct- ion gear. This gear, similar to an automobile trans- mission, reduces the high speed of the turbine to the lower speed of the propeller. Associated with each engine are many pumps of various types and capacities as well as hundreds of feet of piping. The responsibility for operation and upkeep of the prime mover of the ships four turbo-generators are also part of our task. Each of these consists of a turbine and reduction gear to drive the generator plus several pumps and associated valves and piping. These units produce the electrical power needed for the various equipment used in modern Naval warfare and personal convenience. Another contribution to this city afloat by M Division is fresh water. The ships four evaporators distill all the fresh water used by the crew, the boilers and other devices unable to utilize salt water. machinery Xfwgwa ., X ff A 3 YV 4 X 0 '42 ' I' ltig ottino division officer fi-if f Q 1- o KI fo rJ I w walker c w radick f c smith ir., b.l. dupuy, a. r. chaffin, t.d. workman, k.r. rowland, j. f. huffman, c.i I' n f W: v ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' . 1 b k ow r I shook r w wilson w c fricke, i. f. dunegan, w. e. berry, p. t. hooper, c.d. buttruff, i. l. hancock, v.

The jobs performed by R Division personnel are many cmd varied. To help accomplish this task are three shops: Shipfitters shop, Damage Control shop and Carpenter shop. The SHIPFITTER SHOP maintains constant repair on the ships fire-main, plumbing, hull and ventilation systems. In addition to their routine work they handle all types of metal work from book-cases to welding on catapults and arresting gear. The CARPENTER SHOP maintains all of the ships boats, and handles many iobs such as building crates to ship damaged equipment and making plaques. When shipyard facilities are not available, they make repairs to the flight deck. The DAMAGE CONTROL SHOP maintains the ships watertight integrity and fire fighting equipment. To perform this task effectively they must spend a great deal of time inspecting, making tests, inventorying equip- ment and training. Besides accomplishing their regular work, the men of R Division stand many watches. The most important of these being on the high capacity fog foam stations. repair front row: fl. to r.J bourgo t. a. sfm3, fouch r.s. sfm3, rhodes c. e. sfm3, oneal c.c. sfp2 del-rosario a sfp2 boardingham a sfl 'feCkleY l- l- SH' bledsoe f- W- SfP2, Padgett Q.

V-l Division personnel handle the iobs of elevator operators and phone talkers, maintain the LSO platform, clean and maintain the escalator, all preservation and painting of the entire flight deck and provide equip- ment and phone talkers for Flight Deck Control. For better efficiency and control the crew is divided into four groups. Fly One spots aircraft on the cats and all movements on the flight deck forward of the island. Fly Two handles all aircraft on the angle area and abreast the island and number two elevator. Fly Three moves all aircraft aft of the island and on and off number three elevator. The fourth group is Repair Eight which handles all aircraft emergencies, crash, salvage and iettison operations.

More planes in less space moved safely, efficiently, and quickly is our motto. Flight operations cannot continue without being able to get the right plane to the catapult at the right time. LEXlNGTON'S three hangar bays are the main stag- ing areas for such shuffles and, since the bays are enclosed, are the primary storage areas during incle- ment weather. The bays are also handy for maintenance. The quarterdeck, showplace of the ship, is painted and cleaned by V-3. This, plus the entire hangar deck is maintained in a condition of cleanlines that reflects the pride that V-3 men have in their work. fron? row LI. to r.J: clarke i. g. an, toler g. d. aa, hammond c. g. an, vanderford n r an b ' iu O- Cm' Gndruss C. bi Cm, ioseph dit. dn' homer LW.

All fuel tanks must be stripped and samples analyzed prior to delivery- which is done through a series of filters. The division consists of 65 men who man two AVGAS pump rooms, two AVGAS filter rooms, two iet fuel pump rooms, two jet fuel filter rooms, a lubricating pump room, fiight deck fueling stations, hangar deck fueling stations and various control talker stations. lIt's a long way around this divisions' spacesi.

Aircraft maintenance and Air Group support being its assigned mission, V-6 sets out to accomplish it in many different ways. The mechanics in the AD Shop maintain all the ship's rolling stock, such as the tractors, forklifts, aircraft starting units, the flight deck crash crane, and the ship's vehicles. The AE 'Shop electricians work on the flight deck as the aircraft starting crew, and maintain test benches where all aircraft electrical equipment is calibrated and repaired. The Metalsmith Shop maintains the air compressor, hydraulic iacks and jennies, perform welding iobs, supply squadrons with a wide variety of tools for general use, and perform all types of jobs requiring machine work in the shop itself. ln the AT Shop the elecronics technicians maintain test benches and perform calibration and repair on all types of aircraft electronics equipment. The division also maintains and services the liquid oxygen carts, which supply the oxygen pilots need in high altitude flight.

Contained in 32 storerooms are more than 36,000 dilterent type items, from nuts and bolts to electron tubes to 800 pound bearings. OtTice supplies requested by offices throughout the ship are also stocked by S-l. The storerooms are open for normal issues from 0800 to l600 daily except Sundays and Holidays. Should emergencies arise after normal issue hours, a duty Storekeeper is standing by to meet the requirement. Stock record cards are maintained by OFFice Store- keepers on each item of stock. Daily, when the store- rooms have closed, issue stubs are brought to the Supply Office and posted from the stock records, thereby maintaining an accurate record of each item on hand. When stocks are depleted to a reorder point, requisi- tions are submitted to the nearest supply activity, and stocks are soon replenished. The S-l division is also responsible for loading and stowing these materials, and assuring the money granted the ship is properly administered. silccires , I 1, - N., W., ,.,., , f , A- Ven- :ss ,:'y:s5:,gg:g'ggszgrf,gg uf vh,,,,.,4,,.M.n ,wif -,F ,,I:.3,: ,,-,hm E , NL.,-,,,..-A,-s,.,r,,,,.., ,T ., . 4...- si- , rr.. ...-.... 47... .... , .. ...f , 1 . 4 MW, f- W: t fi M i I W ,I J! r 1 R N 11 ,, L x r W r 1 N ,qu 'sf 'e au swsmawesef kneeling fl. to nb: sc1FFrc1n d. i. sksn, soFfrcm p. d. sa, hykel e. o. sksn, lindsey d. w. sksn. sitting: Iowe I. h. sk3, d. h. sk3, tucker r. g. sk3, kosch t. m. sk2, pontcxnores I.s. skt, henry i.m. cxkc, harris I.s. skc, dela cruz p. skt, iomes I. sk2, myers i. e. sk3, vosquez d. sk3. standing: mcgcxugh c. e. sn, webb I. c. sk3, cocrtes p. c. sksn, smith I. sn, dixon h. cm. sn, brown 1. m. sksn, ortzer p. i. sksn, grcwcztt i. v. sksn, Iuttrell I. d. sn, courtney m. v. sksn, Iehto s.

SQZ ivisicm Next to liberty, a ship's general mess is the most discussed subject in the sea going Ncsvy. Every man on board spends at least two hours of each day on the mess decks. The mess decks are a dining room and a meeting place where a sailor can sit down and shoot the breeze over a cup of coffee. The general mess is the only restaurant in town. lt has to please every man on board three times a day every day. lt has to feed around the clock. S-2 Division, the largest division on board LEXING- TON has the iob of running the general mess. Talent and hard work have produced the results which have earned LEX the reputation of being a good feeder. All the men in the division work for this reputation: bakers who turn out five hundred loaves of bread a day, commissary men who grill thousands of steaks to order in a matter of hours, or prepare salads that have earned the praise of COMSEVENTHFLEET. The commissary men, the strikers, the messcooks and the masters at arms all realize how important a part they play in their ships operation.

The primary function of S-6 is to keep the Air Group supplied with aircraft parts and accessories. Aviation Supply could be compared with any large auto parts store. We stock supplies not only for the air group but for ship's divisions as well. A few of the items carried are spares for catapults and arresting gear, liquid oxygen accessories, photo- graphic equipment, launching units and parts for guided missiles, tow targets, aircraft engines, paints, aviator's clothing and shoes. ln fact, all parts pertaining to aviation are procured andfor stocked by S-6 Division. Carried are more than 22,000 items with a value in excess of five million dollars. The mottor of S-6 Division is Kill Them With Service and the men of Aviation Supply are proud to say that they have lived up to their motto. I-DJ it s 6.4 fron'I' row Cl.

At this time she was. designated Carrier Air Group lOl. In March l95l this became the first all Reserve Air Group to deploy to- Korea, and thus earned the title of Minutemen in memory of our earlier historical reserves who came to the rescue in time of crisis at Lexington and Concord. ln l958 the air group was chosen to ioin the uss' RANGER ICVA-6ll at Norfolk, Va. They departed Norfolk on 26 April i958 and proceeded around Cape Horn to the ship's new home port at Alameda, Cali- fornia. Enroute they visited Port au Spain, Trinidad, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Valpariso, Chile, Lima, Peru, and Acapulco, Mexico. Air Group FOURTEEN made additional cruises to the Orient aboard the USS BOXER QCVA-2ll, in l955, aboard the USS HORNET CCVA-l2l, in T957, aboard the USS RANGER ICVA-oll, in T959, and aboard the USS ORISKANY KCVA-34l, in l96O. In December, l96O, preparations began for the present cruise. Marine Fighter Squadron 323 lVMF-323l replaced VF-l42. The deployment officially began on 9 November 1961. Stops were made at Pearl Harbor, Yokosuka, Subic Bay, Hong Kong, Sasebo and Kobe. front row U. fo r.J: ens s. levenson, ltig c. l. haker, ltig d. e. bakko, lcdr d. c. parkhurst, cdr t.t. scambos, cdr r.f. hunt lcdr w l redmon, lt w. i. price Ill, ltig h. c. striedel, ltig p. b. reed. back row: robinson i.w. atcm, smyth t. e. atnan, spreen d. f. dk2 whitley t.c. sn, labbe l. n. sn, tolbert r. l. sn, sexton r. m. hmcm, dickens s. i. yn3, trueman r. k. atn3, bookout i.o. yn3, hailey p. k. sn st art I C dk2, beccarelli d. j. amsc. cdr robert f. hunt CDR R.

In his command are 20 of- ficers, three of which are ground pounders and about 150 men. The squadron holds the AirPac Battle EHiiciency E award in the light iet attack bracket for fiscal year 1961. Working closely, the men and officers perform highly complex tasks and training maneuvers, keeping our squadron on the nation's number one line of defense and READY. Readiness is the key word to our mission, for we must be ready at all times to defend the libery of the United States. Whether it be in conventional battle or nuclear war, our pilots have had the experience and training to deliver the ordnance and our maintenance crew keeps our aircraft in A-1 shape. This is the Roadrunner squadron's last cruise with the reliable FJ-4B Fury. Upon our arrival at NAS Lemoore we will sell the Furies for A4D Skyhawks and again begin a training period in preparation to our next WestPac cruise. x . 1. rfL':w':, f . ieyn - Qu?

To accomplish this mission, each F8U-lP has six aerial cameras. Each aircraft is configured so that forward fire, oblique, and vertical photography can be ob- tained simultaneously. Upon the completion of the mission, the film is processed by the ship's photo lab and then turned over to the Detach- ment's photo interpretation personnel for first phase interpretation. The intelligence obtained from the photography is then utilized in tactical or strategic planning. r N N w L N 4 ,7,,7 V 1 Hrs? row: sfreefmcm, endresen, benoif, monuel, schnell, Iovxson, shearer. second row: Worley, sykorcx, coddeo, wiswell, nonlux, hoggord, Fleming, bogorf, henderson, corona, iohnson, koonfz, carey, persons, runberg, woolley, pinson, I A w 1 W s l I boron, Iockeff, Torney, schleininger, wilson, rogozinski, king. fpqdgiff, lipsfein, pedroso camera shyj 283 N . . .f , . , ., -- -f - 4. -. v- L. :'::Ltt h 'ff ru? ffm'-: ri42'fw1'rifr'-' 4'i1f'igi-f f -fffmrrf1-:U LA?inn-Q--ifd1:9:11:9LA'1n:?!cm,e-'w K 2 ,,..,,,.,,,,1.,, ,v , , ,.,,,,.., iw... 4.

HU-l supplies all CVA's, and some CVS's with helicopters for plane-guard, personnel and mail transfers, and Chaplain Holycopter runs. There are also helos aboard some cruisers mainly for personnel transfers. Those stationed aboard AGS's, LST's, and LSD's are used for the most part to carry cargo. The only other type ship having a helo is the icebreaker where it is used for ice reconnaisance. HU-l's main efforts are toward making faster, safer, and more effective rescues at sea. To date, HU-l has made 873 such rescues. Through con- stant work on new equipment, the rescue at sea is becoming a very precise operation. In the future, with the coming of a new and better utility helicopter for night plane guard and with qualified skin-divers for crewmen, the downed pilot or the man overboard will have a still greater chance of rescue, night or day. lf donald h. austin orqicer-in-charge , ens robert a. short lfig john k. riess - . , V , L ..-.,-.-.-.f- .. -- nv: :-44 :fi-.f+.114.f'fe1'-1.1 . ff'-1: W - , - - -'---.gf gv.11'1, '41- Q, 1-,sv f,:f,,X I QI3f1iI jl L ' sv-111 aw,-f5p1 :rf.'g 11::'?:ge-,prggs '14-,ff -W ff-f,2Qq2.2,:f,v7,g'.:- -1,-'1 1 ..c2rf::1.:e:,,:',-' '- -' - Zvz.-.Ffa .af : ,- .. ,.., . ,.., Q.

The four crews smashed every compex re cord by winning 9 E's and piling up 3914 points This type of can do spirit remained throughout the cruise, but was accomplished only by the hard work necessary in keeping the aircraft in ready status. The Skywarrior is the Sunday Punch of the attack carrier, being able to extend its powerful striking arm many hundreds of miles at speeds in excess of 600 mph.
