LTJG PATRICK E. MCGINTY Division Officer and Navigator DIVI IO While transiting the Eastern Pacific in June of 1964, doing survey operations off the Western coast of the United States, during the return of MAURY to Pearl Harbor, the various surveys conducted around Hawaii, ' and again, the transit of the Eastern Pacific to San Diego, Californiag Buenaventura Colombia, during the survey, and the return voyage to Hawaii in June of 65, the Navigation Department has been the Captain's back seat driver, advising him which course to take, when to turn, when to speed up, and when to stop. The leader of the back seat drivers is Ltjg McGinty, who is ably assisted by Chief Mullen and Means, QM3, Doneney, QM3, sokoi, SN, Ryan, sN, and Cumby, SN. Rosa, SM3, Atchely, SM3q Langston, SN, and Hutto, SN, are responsible for saying hello to anyone we may encounter along the paths of the seas . Combined, these men comprise a unique arrangement, that of a division and department all rolled into one. In addition to the 200 guide ffhe quartermasters there are approximately, pieces of equipage which and care. Along with devoting time to the items necessary for their work, the quartermasters and signalmen stand watch both inport and underway, and furnish the necessary personnel to maintain visual communications between MAURY and her soundboats. various publications which and signalmen in their work, 500 charts, 100 flags, and 100 require constant maintenance 3 N 1st,row - Langston, Sokol, Cumby 2nd row - Means, Atchely, Mullen, Donahey Not shown: Hutto, Rosa, Ryan Q SEN TRACK CHART uss MAURY CAGS-I6D ASA i964-l965 A 'FRN' bow C7 Q? 56 Q96 HAWAIIAN ISLANDS ,wif 66 If - ,.

In September 1959, MAURY became the first U.S. Navy ship to enter a Russian port since World War II when she paid a good will visit to the Black Sea port of Odessa. In February 1960 the ship's homeport was moved from New York to Pearl Harbor, from which a series of oceanographic survey operations in the South East Asia area were undertaken.

It would be difficult and unfair to attempt to single out any individual or group for isolated praiseg your performance as a team has been so faithful and complete. To each of you who put in the long hours that made up a long day and then stood the long tiresome night watches week after week my sincerest thanks. As a closing thought may our Eternal Father whose strong arm has guarded us against the peril of the sea continue to watch over us and ours in the months and years that lie ahead. Capt. J. L. Neff Commanding Officer EXECUTIVE OFFICER CDR KRETCHMAN came to MAURY from the Fleet Computer Program Center-Pacific where he served as Operational Programer and Systems Analyst for NTDS.

SHAPLEY Division Officer ENS GERALD A. BURNETT Assistant Division Officer FIR T DIVI IO During the 1964-1965 survey season First Division was involved in a variety of jobs of deck seamanship. Along with the day to day jobs of chipping paint and swabbing the deck, some of the major accomplishments were as follows. After taking part in dry docking the ship at Mare Island, preparations were begun for the up coming oper- ational readiness inspection. For ORI the highline rig was set up and transfer of cargo at sea accomplished. Precision anchoring was also worked on and GQ and abandon ship drills became an everyday occurrence. During the South American Survey quite a lot of cargo was handled. Fifteen tons of supplies were taken aboard in San Diego, stored in no. l hold, and off-loaded in Panama. These 77 crates and a Datsun Jeep were then further transported to Lima, Peru. As this survey came to an end, it was the general opinion of those on the fo'c's'le, that it had been a rather rewarding experience. During the survey many had learned new skills, some had learned to be better line handlers, while others had been trained to be sound boat coxswains. All had crossed the line and were now shell- backs. All Mm had seen what South America and its people were like. Thus it was a pretty satisfied crew that headed back to the States, looking forward either to getting out, going on leave, or spending the summer in Hawaii. lst row - Hendersen, La ngstraat.

We man and and maintain two 523, 32 ton twin engined sound boats, two LCVP's two LCPL's, one being used as the gig, and four wherries. We have had both sound boats and three wherries deployed continuously on this survey. Uses of the other boats included: LCPL 5 was fittedcniton board as a soundboat and used successfully in Malaga Bay. LCVP 3 made a two day supply run to Iwymst Red and Green stations and repaired Onan generators there, resupplied Lorac Station Center with a wherry shuttling through the 5' surf. LCVP 2 deployed twice to Buenaventura, 5 days to support beach camps and 12 days with fuel for Serrano's sound boat. Our boats have made ship to ship transfers, carried guests and liberty parties, landed jeeps, tents, 500 lb. Onan generators, and tons of supplies under a variety of waves, winds, and weather conditions. In addition to boat work, Third division has maintained the midships section of MAURY, adding much fancy work to the captain's verandah. We have been the award division at captain's inspections. We have been prepared at every flight quarters to lower the crash boat and render aid. Truly, many of MAURY's paths were blazed by the salty and often soaking wet Boatswainmates,Coxswains, and Seamen of Third Division. 1 t rr - ,,WW-wl ..,... ..,.. 22d row Chrlstensen Caponegro, Sorensen, Hoyt, Davis, Prentice, Johnson, Brophy 3rd row gallog Shavers Matsuoka, Shook, Dunaway, Garrett, Sabine, Aguirre ro w auer ier Plooster Ferguson, Baker, Bonham, Storlie, Kinney, Buma, angel ' ., ,F Back down!

TUDOR Division Officer Boilertenders of Maury's B Division have completed a atrouble free season with only fireside cleaning and other routine maintenance challenging their many and varied skills. These range from pump repair to boiler water testing and treatment. This outstanding performance comes from the knowledge and training that a division with SOZ rated men can attain and pass on to new non-rated men. It is to the credit of 23 men with 99 years experience in the opera- tion of marine boilers and their associated equipment that we have had all bells answered . Maury has thus been able to carry out her survey operations in the 1964-65 season smartlyzuuiwithout delay due to B Division's efforts. B In addition to carryingcnitspecific engineering duties, B Division fielded a baseball team that challenged all comers during the four month Colombian Survey, and contributed 1007, to the American Red Cross Drive. The men of B Division are pleased that they have been able to provide the steam which enabled Maury's surveys to be completed in her traditionally well done manner in every corner of the Pacific. i T i . i l 1st row - Hatcher, Brown, Brown, Lanners, White,Culhane, Rhoades, Rutherford 2nd row - Lieber, Becker, johnson, Ayers, Mattson, 3rd row - Racioppi, Jacobs, Hernan, Neely, Swierz.

The Division's area of maintenance ranges from repairs to 12 volts CDC? small boat electrical systems to to 2200 volts CAC? electrical drive propulsion equipment. Divisional training and leadership, the keynote to accomplishment, recently paid off during the complete renewal of Main Propulsion Contacts and rewinding of a 50 HP motor. With this type of divisional training and leadership, the Electrical Division will continue to i inspire excellent performance in aiding the ship to accomplish her assigned tasks.

HORNER Division Officer and Damage Control Assistant R DIVI IO R Division, the division of repair, has managed over the past year to complete over 800 job orders along with its regular maintenance responsibilities. This work has covered Carpentry, Damage Control, Shipfitting, Machine Shop repairs, Diesel Engines, and last but not least, Onans. There has also been the diesel oil and aviation gas fueling responsibilities. These reached their peak when the helicopter had to be refueled with half gallon jars. The Shipfitter's Shop completed many jobs, the largest of which was the removing, cleaning, and replacing of some twenty 6 inch fire main valves. Of course, during this time, other maintenance work had to be accomplished. One of the more important jobs was welding a bicycle to the forward No. 1 hold bulkhead --so it wouldn't be'a missle hazard! The Boat and Machine Shops have also kept themselves very busy preparing the ship's boats and especially, the soundboats for the Colombian Survey. And to round off the years achievements, the Carpentry Shop, along with its wood work, has been armed with a new and more realistic Damage Control device - the Smoke Bomb! In a never ending effort to improve the fire fighting capabilities aboard this ship, they have, without warning, set these bombs off in various compart- ments to test the crew's reactions to fires. The reaction has been excellent. - 1st row - Robertson Bell Vo ' .. ' . ' 9 gt, B 1 T . lM111er, Slmgen, Cummingsai ey, upper, Walker, Reed, Alexander, Schmelzer, Miller, Haberstitch, 2 d .

CUNNINGHAMy Division Officer and Communications Officer OC DIVISIO The maintenance of reliable, secure and rapid external communications is never an easy task, but it may be said that during this cruise it has been no less than hectic. All ran smoothly until we reached our remote survey area and discovered that normal channels of Fleet Communi- cations were beyond our reception. As a result, we have employed means which have been out of general use for over five years.'With a reversion to the old CW system, MAURY Radiomen were given a good workout in methods only lightly covered in their schooling. It is commendable that this challenge was met with fine performances and we have maintained our link with the Fleet and with those Commands interested in MAURY's survey mission. Conditions have been frustrating, but similar conditions are becoming standard operating procedure for MAURY communications personnel because of the remote areas into which our surveys often take us. The duties of our Aerographic Unit have been extremely productive this cruise. There is little or no data issued for the South American area to aid in the daily fore- casting of local weather conditions. So it has been that the nickname weather guessers has been their watchword However, the data collected and relayed to our Fleet Weather Facilities as a result of the many sounding balloon launches will become a basis for very valuable climatological atlases. Our data output here will probably double the amount of similar information collected for this area in the past. serif , Q , ssnmsqi sl lst row ' Binns, Henderson 2nd row - Sokol, Schmidt, Quesnel Not shown: Sullivan, Roberts, Ryan, Morton OaDe11 Laure ,,fel,Wi ,,.c. li iii Willis, . ,mm-51 mmm?

The entire Green RAYDIST Station was completely moved to a new location in only 25 hours. p During the time MAURY was in Colombia, the weather provided many days of minimal flying I conditions. The ceiling often lowered to 500 feet, the lowest allowable for visual flight II according to OPNAV Instructions. During these days the pilots had to rely on radar and radio I I I2 III navigation to relocate the ship after a flight to the beach.

FLEMING Assistant Oceanographic Officer LTJG GEORGE R. DOWNS JR. Photo-Litho Officer V DIVISIO V Division is the division most directly involved in carrying out MAURY's mission. The obtaining of ocean, track, Bathythermograph drops, survey planning and data analysis, printing, photography, and assistance in geodetic work are all part of the everyday work of V Division personnel. During the Buenaventura area survey, V Division assisted in locating and positioning sites for RAYDIST and LORAC electronic positioning equipment. Clearing jungle areas so positioning of one of the beach camps could be accomplished was a time consuming job. Photography and printing required during the survey were handled in the photo-print shop.

F. D. Smith, with Ens. T. G. McHaffie as Division Officer, Disbursing Officer and Assistant Stores Officer. The Stores group under the supervision of the leading storekeeper, Carter, SKl, is responsible for the pro- curement stowage and expenditure of all items of general stores material, repair parts and equipage needed on board MAURY. In addition they maintain all the required records and submit all reports and correspondence related to this material. Getting ready for the Colombian cruise started right after returning from the West Coast. By the time January 65 rolled around this group was hard pressed as material poured in and last minute requests for material flooded the office. The paper work and getting the stores stowed for sea, had the men giving up many liberty hours. The next group in the division is the smallest, but the best liked on the ship. This is the Disbursing group composed of Santiago, DK2, and Young, DK2. These men maintain all the pay records and assist in the disbursement of funds when paying the crews of MAURY and SERRANO. These two gave the Stores group a hand when a crash supply project from CNO, called DIAL, fell on us on our first stop in Rodman. Last but not least is the Steward group. This group of the division is responsible for the preparation and serving of meals for the wardroom and the upkeep of officers' country. The fine work of this group has helped make functions held by the Wardroom big successes. 1st row - Abidog, Aboyme, Young, Vandervies, Molen, Betts, Martin 2nd row - Halliday, Hester, Dumaop, Blanco, Carter, Santiago, Magana, Castillan 3rd row ' Cayco, Gabriel, Aglibot, Tomas, Buensalido, Hornick, Ovid V ' F 1 . - Li ,A 51- .54-4. - L' 4 .

Swab as Division Officer is composed of two groups. The Commissarymen, with Buchmann, CSC, in charge, are responsible for the planning of well balanced meals as well as maintaining an adequate quantity of food on board. Nottestad, CS2, and Clem, CS3 insure the proper preparation of meals as Galley Watch Captains, while Hanson, CS2, keeps an ever watchful eye on his storerooms and cold storage spaces. The combined efforts of these MAURY Mates are rewarded with requests for seconds and the well fed look of the crew. The Shipservicemen with Morton, SHl, as leading and Divisional Petty Officer is the second group of this division. Taitague, SH3, leading Laundry P.0., and his crew are responsible for the clean, neat appearance of MAURY's officers and crew. To these men, everyday is blue Monday. The Barber Shop and Tailor Shop under Weathers insure the crew of being well clipped and in good repair. Jackson, SHSN, in the Ship's Store, sells the varied items necessary to maintain a happy crew and generate enough profits for the Recreation Fund. The other source of profits for the Fund is the Soda Fountain under Mendiola, SK3, who dispenses gedunks and maintains the vending machines. This is a service division, dedicated to building morale. Ltjg Swab, with the assistance of Morton, SHl, who maintains records of transactions in all these areas are usually found in the Supply Office seeking guidance for their special accounting duty to enable them to increase S-2 Division's service to the sailors of MAURY. 1st row - Cox, Hughes, Carter, Zanders, Giordano, Hayes, Hanie, Warner, Orth, Jackson 2nd o - W - . r W eathers' Murray, Butler, MeUd1012, Taltague, Morton, Buchmann, Nottestad, Hanson, Clem, Corber, 3 d - ' - . r row Little, Eller, Clawer, Pixler, Morton, Doenges, Daly, Kocjancich, Stewart, Waggoner . - ...W ............,.....,.-.-...-- - , , WM U V A A --fA--- '- A-.,,.,,.. .... .. -.,--, ,.

I X DIVISIO The technical skills of our modern Navy have not as yet eliminated the necessity of personnel. As long as there are personnel in the Navy, someone will have to handle their records, deliver their mail, process their special requests and keep order on the messdecks. Thus, the Executive Department is established consisting of: the Ship's Office, Post Office, Chaplain's Office, Legal Office and the MAA force. The Executive Officer is head of the Department and is assisted in his manifold tasks by the Administrative Assistant, Ltjg L-D. Sneegas, who also heads the Ship's Office. Gibbs, YNCL keeps the yeomen personnelmen and strikers on their toes checking in- structions and notices and keeping them all up to date. The Ship's Office maintains the service jacket of every man on MAURY. They distribute and log the paperwork that comes aboard as well as manufacture much of the paperwork that leaves. The I 8 E Office handles training and correspondence courses which include USAFI courses and GED tests for furthering ones education. The Chaplain supervises much of this as well as the ship's library in the crew's lounge and ship's radio station AGS. lst POW ' ROC, Murray, Benavides, Doncourt, Dearing 2nd row - Peterson, Anderson, Gibbs, Odell, Rhoades 3rd row - Vanderbeke, Blappert, Diamond, Shoemaker as re theret DQe pellial 9 the ll risks in lite' x PEIIOIK f0I . i J ' gl...

It is staffed by Lieutenant Commander Doil E. Barlow, the Dental Officerg Garthwaite, J. T., DT3, and Kapper, K.K., DTSN. ' The treatment available consists mainly of periodic dental examinations, placement of fillings, treatment of gum disease, removal of teeth and decay prevention treatment. There are no facilities for prosthetic work, which is the construction of false teeth. However, the required preliminary work can be completed while deployed and upon return to our home port the prosthetic work is provided by the shipyard Dental Clinic. The Dental Office is equipped with the latest high speed equipment for the preparation of teeth for fillings. Along with this there is also music provided by a tape recorder. Appointments are available within 7 to 10 days. Although a large number of those newly reporting have numerous cavities, those who are interested in their dental health and many who do not care, depart MAURY with all their dental work completed. MEDICAL DEPARTMENT The Medical Department of MAURY is a small, complex unit providing the ship with preventative and therapeutic medical support. The seven enlisted men and one Medical Officer in the department strive to serve MAURY with 24 hour medical care. The unit is capable of doing diagnostic studies, including limited X-Ray, bacteriological and chemical determina- tions, in addition to minor surgery and treatment of a wide spectrum of infectious diseases. Most efforts of this department are oriented toward education and the pre- ventive medicine aspects of disease and accident control. Some of the ports visited by MAURY in recent years have had nearly all of the diseases known to man in endemic proportions. Only careful Surveillance and active preventive measures have kept the men of MAURY healthy and the ship capable of performing her mission for the Navy. Now, as in the past, the Medical Department is ever vigilant in maintaining this watch.
