REARMING LYNDE MCCQRMICK Carrying bullets with tender loving . Care. One for IVQU, One f01' your , , AHOUIGI' pallet IS lOW6l'6d tothe deck. Naval Gunfire Support was our main objective in Vietnamese waters. Stories about NGFS are wide spread, but mention' is seldom given to the means by which the ammunition is received and struck below to the magazines. All the projectiles and powders are brought aboard by strong-backed sailors! ' Underway replenishment was our only means of receiving ammo. The procedure is both dangerous and time consumingg but without this method we would have to enter port every two or three days. The ammunition is passed from the AE to us along a wire as the ships steam about 80-1,20 feet apart at 12-15 knots. Once the ammo is on board, each bullet and powder is hand carried to the magazine. Carrying projectiles which weigh more than 70 pounds each can be tiring, but McCormick men know that speed is essential for an efficient evolution. Powder cans are a little lighter,.but not easy.
