These coun- tries had hoped the use of force could be avoided. Hegrettably, we now believe that only force will make him leave. A Prior to ordering our forces into battle, l instructed our mili- tary commanders to take every necessary step to prevail yyii as quickly as possible and withthe greatest degree-of protection possible for Americans-and allied servicemen and women. l've told the'American people before that this would notbe another Vietnam. And l repeat this here tonight. Ourtroops will have the best possiblesupport in the entire world. And they will not be asked to fight with one hand behind their back. I'm hopeful that this fighting will not go on for long and that casualties will be held to an absolute minimum. This is a his- toric moment. We have, in the past year, made great progress in ending thelong era of conflict and cold war. We have before us the opportunity to forge for ourselves and for future genera- tions a new world of order, a world where the rule of law not the law of the jungle governs the conduct of nations When we are successful and we will be we have a real chance at this new world order an order in which a credible United Nations can use its peacekeeping role to fulfill the promise and vision of the U N s founders We have no argument with the people of lraq indeed for the innocents caught in this con flict l pray for their safety Our lt is the liberation of Kuwait lt is my hope that somehow the iraqi people can even now convince their dictator that he must lay down his arms leave Kuwait and let lraq itself rejoin the fami ly of peace loving nations A - Thogmast .yyi P gaine A wrlotteyjmany ysearswagorz These arlevthe times that t ryfrnenf'sjso.uls.'f Those well-known words are-so very true today.

Tenders are the floating repair and maintenance centers for the fleet. The Puget Sound carriers an inventory of about 50,000 repair parts with a value of about 87.5 million. The crew is trained for every- thing from repair of heavy equipment to the calibra- tion of nuclear reactor instruments. We have divers, haul technicians, every kind of repair specialistf' Maloit said. We can do any repair on a ship that does not require dry docking. Although tension will be heightened for the crew, Maloit does not expect any surpr'ises. I haven't seen any evidence that we will face problems different from those on other deploy- ments, he said. The fact that some of the ships in the war effort have been at sea longer than their normal deploy- ments should change his job little, if any, the cap- tain said. And he does not anticipate any special repair problems caused by the mammoth oil slick on the Persian Gulf Lt. Omdr. Nancy Cole, the ship's supply officer, said extra medical supplies were taken aboard for this cruise. Because Saddam Hussein has threatened to use chemical and biological weapons, special medicines were stocked. The ship has a 32-bed hospital ward and facilities for dental care. ' 'fWe're not expecting anything medically extraor- dinary on this cruise, Maloit said. :Tm not taking a surgeon, for instance. Cole, who is the highest ranking of 400 women aboard Puget Sound, said that, despite the busi- ness-as-usual routine, moving toward a war zone does make things different. There is extra excitement, she said. This is certainly not a normal deployment. 1 4 PREPARI G FOR WAR ,,,,.,..,1 9 N 1. , ,-X X, ,W' 5 5. 2 I ffz. 1 gig? W, , W I M.

After all, CNN provided all the images we needed to assure us it really was a war we were sailing into. The dangers lying ahead were underlined by the unspoken thoughts of the crew, especially when it became mandatory to carry our gas masks. We carried them to chow, to the showers, we slept with them by our sides. At Captain's Call, fwe still had those gas masksj Capt. Maloit explained that we'd be just outside SCUD missile range. That was comfort- ing... The mood aboard ship became noticeably more serious crossing the Atlantic. Training became the number one pri- ority. Times for reaching the required condition of material readiness were reduced during General Quarters. CBR drills didn't seem like mere simulations anymore. Each became a rehearsal for the very real possibility that PUGET SOUND would be subject to a CBR attack. Fire drills were no different. Of course the possibility of a fire on board always exists, but the mood carried over. Response times improved as the crew fine-tuned each drill. PUGET SOUND was preparing for the worst - and hoping for the best. fv- N I TRANSITI G v 3 T s 3 1 1 1 s K 2 514 THE BIG DI TCH ' The Suez Canal is a man-made waterway in Egypt connecting the Mediterranean and Red Seas. The canal extends approximately 105 miles, from Port Said to Port Taufiq, shortening the trip between England and India by 6,000 miles. It is a lockless sea-level canal that allows ships to steam northbound or southbound. Since the canal only allows for one lane of traffic, the convoy of ships anchor in the Great Bitter Lake, located north of Port Taufiq, to allow the other convoy of ships to pass. Beginning the 15-hour journey from the Mediterranean, the canal tapers down to 302 feet wide at the Red Sea. Construction of the canal, built by the French, cost 392,414,000 and took nearly 11 years before its com- pletion on November 17, 1869. The Suez Canal was closed twice due to wars. The first time was in 1956 to 1957 and then again in 1967 to 1975. The canal was nationalized in 1956 by Egypt. PUGET SOUND transited the Suez Canal Feb. 18 and May 3. Dur- ing the Hrst transit, Egyptians man- ning anti-aircraft guns served as quick reminders of our impending and uncertain voyage into Operation Desert Storm.

The Portuguese built the city Walls early in the 16th century, but it Was the Ottoman Turks Who retained uninterrupted domination until 1916. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia estimates nearly 10 million people, with almost half resident foreigners. Foreigners make up nearly 70 percent of the kingdom's Work force. Until the 1960s, most of the population were nomadic or seminomadic. Since the discovery of oil, about 95 percent have settled. Custodian of the Three Holy Mosques is one of the Kingjs many titles, but is perhaps among his most important in a nation Where Islam is the focus of living. There is no formal constitution. Guidance for both ruler and citizen is based on God's law, the Sharia, drawn from the Koran. M.

King Fahd's Fountain, above, was inspired by a similar fountain in Geneva. Although is was never verified, we were told that the fountain served much like an absentee pennant - when the King was in Jeddah, the fountain was turned on for him to see from his palace. When he's absent, itls not on. Operation Desert Storm events: As the Muslims celebrated Ramadan throughout March, negotia- tions for peace were underway. Sporadic fighting continues, but the exchange for POW's begins. On March 28, USS KENNEDY and SARATOGA Bat- tle Groups arrive at their East Coast homeports. On April ll, the U.N.

The city is sit- uated on steep cliffs overlooking the Gulf of Antalya. Founded by King Attalus II C159 - 138 B.C.J, the city was called Attaleia and was a notorious pirate haven until 79 B.C. when it was taken over by the Romans. The city remained peaceful until 1207 when the Anatolian Seljuks raided and took over. In 1423 Antalya again became unsettled when the Ottomans came in and took over.

At the center of the peninsula is Monte Orlando, a castle, crowned by the tomb of Lucius Munatius Plancus. It has been rebuilt several times by rulers only to be damaged again during World War II. Gaeta Was a favorite resort in Roman times, until it later became a Byzantine dependency. The city became known as 'fthe key to Naples as the Neopolitan monarchs took use of it's defensive position. Today, the city of 22,605 serves as a popular tourist refuge. Gaeta is also home of Commander Sixth Fleet. PUGET SOUND served as Sixth Fleet Flagship from 1980-1985. A HISTURYOF ROME Rome, the capital of Italy, also known as the Eternal City, is situated along the west coast of the peninsula. The city lies astride the Tiber River. Rome's history begins with the story of Aeneas fleeing Troy and bringing his followers to barbaric Italy, where Romulus would later establish Rome. 476 AD. marked the end of the Roman Empire when Odacer set aside the emperor Romulus. In 493 Odacer was overthrown by the Ostrogoths. For many centuries Popes held temporal control over the Papal States. In 962, King Otto I- of Ger- many took the thrown marking the beginning of the Holy Roman Empire. The entry of Pope Martin V in Rome in 1420 marked the beginning of the papacy, s absolute rule. Rome became the capital of Italy in 1871. In this year the Italian parliament enacted the Law of Guarentees which assured the Pope's spiritual freedom for the vatican area. In 1922, the Fascist march to Rome brought Mus- solini intio power. Then in 1929 a treaty was drawn up between the Holy See and the Italian government which accepted the existence of the Vatican City. f f 1-4 TOURING I TALL4 Our port visit in Gaeta, May 18-22, may have been brief, but sailors made the most of the opportunities. A tour to Rome was very popular with the crew. During one group's visit to the Vatican City, the Pope addresssed a crowd of thousands. Pompeii, an ancient city on the Gulf of Naples 15 miles southeast of Naples, was buried in the eruption of Mt. Vesuvious in '79 A.D.

Marseille, said to be the oldest city in France, Was colonized in 600 B.C. and known as Massilia. The city grew rich on trade in the Rhone Valley and Mediterranean, linking the city With the rest of Northern Europe. After the fall of the Roman Empire, Marseille exchanged hands repeatedly.

Paris, the capital of France, is located on both sides of the Seine River. It is the second largest metropolitan area in the world with a population of 10 million. Civilization in this area dates back to the third century when the Parisii colo- nized a small settlement. lt was in 987 AD that the city became established as a capitol in the area. Continuing the revolutionary tradition that surfaced in the 14th century Paris participated in the insurrection that led to the overthrow of the French monarchy in 1792. Paris has become the center of fashion, society, the arts and of intellectual interchange of Europe. The French kings further developed the culture and beauty during the Renaissance. With beautiful architecture such as the Louvre, House des Invalides, Notre Dame, Arc de Triomphe de I'Etoile and the Eiffel Tower. For hundreds of years important styles in painting and literature have also been developed in the magnificent city. Paris today is involved in a vast renewal program that was started in 1960 and is to be completed by the year 2000, including an estimated population of 12 million. v li a. IW .

PUGET SOUND sailors joined their French counterparts at the cemetery May 26 for an American Memorial Day Ceremony. Established on Aug. 19, 1944, the cemetery and memorial site was chosen for its historic location along the route of the Seventh Army during World War II. The cemetery is dedicat- ed to the American troops who lost their lives in the cam- paign of Southern France launched Aug. 15, 1944. There are 861 Americans buried here, the remains of 1,200 others origi- nally buried in the region were returned home at the request of their next of kin following the war. Speaking at the ceremony, Capt. Maloit said, I am hon- ored to stand before you on this Memorial Day 1991, as we gather to remember and pay tribute to those who lie in rest, not only here in Draguignan, but in hundreds of places such as this around the world. Their willingness to stand tall in defense of freedom and liberty, and make the ultimate sacri- fice for a cause they dearly believed in is the reason that you and I are here today - not coerced, but of our own free will - living testimony that they did not die in vain. By standing together in solidarity and rolling back the tide of tyranny and terrorism, as we most recently did in Southwest Asia, we honor the courage, loyalty and dedication of our fallen heroesf, ' FRENCH HOSPITALITY A Reafiirmation of the Friendship Pact was signed between the city of Draguignan and the U.S. Navy's Sixth Fleet following the Memorial Day Ceremony.

In 1861 Naples became the last part of the United Kingdom of Italy after the last Bourban King was defeated by Guiseppe Garibaldi in 1860. The city became the site of the Fascist party congress prior to Musso1ini's March to Rome, causing Italy to suffer much damage in World War II, followed by a take-over by allies on October 1, 1943. l 1 1 5 june 13 marked a few milestones for USS PUGET SOUND. Naples was our final resting point before steaming across the Atlantic towards home. USS SHENANDOAH QADf44J arrived to relieve us of tend- ing duties. These events were escalated by a USO Gala celebration on june 14. Navy officials made remarks from the pier to American and Italian guests aboard both ships. Food and wine were later served, followed by danc- ing to the Sixth Fleet Band. 1- , -E. --.,, H-Aa -wht, -1, -X v Ml ' H T' fain- V333 ,, K M K we-m1 V' if r ff Ei?

Repair Officer The Repair Department is primarily responsible for performing repairs to hull, mechanical, electrical and electronic systems of surface ships. Included in our organization are 700 men and women who work in eight divisions and more than 50 Workcenters. The range of services offered to customer ships is comparable to a shipyard. - ' During the deployment, Repair Department personnel provided repair services from the Atlantic crossing to the Red Sea and back across again. We flew 72 tiger teams with tools and equipment all over the Mediterranean and Red Seas. In Jeddah, 15 ships were brought alongside for short repair availabilities. We worked on combatants, amphibs, and logistic support ships, some of which were in either the Military Sealift Command or Merchant Marines. In Antalya, Turkey, our focus was on the amphibs. The trip to Gaeta enabled us to salvage the Sixth Fleet Admiral's Barge which had sank at the pier. Working on two combatants between French food and liberty was accomplished in Mar- seille. The trip to Naples provided the opportunity to test the salvaged and overhauled Admiral's Barge with a quick side-trip back to Gaeta. Additionally, we worked with Deck Department and the Damage Control organization to off-load over 100 pallets of ammunition by helicopter, working from sunset to sun up - it was a long night. But the sandwiches and snacks provided by the Supply Department helped us refuel. The arrival in Naples was the start of a quick turnover with our sister ship and the rapid construction of a dance floor and stage, along with a rapid tear-down! While returning across the Atlantic we were able to clean, preserve and paint many of our spaces. We also had one last shot at sending a small tiger team by helo to another ship in the Task Force for repairs. We topped off' the trip with a very successful Radiological Controls Proficiency Examination CRCPED before saying hello to family and friends awaiting our arrival at Pier 24.

Jenkins Supply Oflicer Supply Department is primarily responsible for providing logistics and supply support to all departments on board USS PUGET SOUNG, supporting the intermediate main- tenance capability and providing a myriad of services to the crew impacting on morale and well-being. Included among the services in Supply Department's char- ter are: feeding the crew, paying the crew, providing laundry, dry cleaning, a barber, ship store, and ADP services, as well as housing approznmately 45 oiiicers and maintaining a num- ber of staff flag spaces. During the deployment, Supply Department acted as the principal liaison with host nations in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, arranging host nation support, coordinating passenger and cargo transportation and serving as a mini-Naval Supply Cen- ter for tended ships alongside in conjunction with the 'cDet ROMEO Jeddah Warehousei' operation. The Supply Depart- ment also opened its other services to tended Lmits and the Jeddah shore establishment, providing ship store items, ADP services and assistance, as well as access to our Enlisted Din- ing Facility. The department also coordinated a Super pic- nic for several ships in company. During the course of the deployment, Supply conducted several replenishment evolutions, receiving stores and provi- sions from the helos of USS SANTABARBARA and USS SATURN and across the wire for USS JOHN LENTHALL. Q .. LCDR N.S. Cole Asst.. Supply Officer In both Antalya, Turkey, and Gaeta, Italy, Supply coordi- nated with Deck Department for receiving stores and provi- sions by barge and again coordinated transportation and port services arrangements. Serving as the principal liaison with husbanding agents in all foreign ports, Supply was able to expedite critical repair parts, replenish industrial material and even procure social supplies in support of the highly successful USO 50th Anniversary Gala in Naples, Italy. Along with Admin Department, Supply also served as the Passenger Mail and Cargo Coordinator in Antalya and Mar- seille, France, authoring the Integrated Logistics Plans for all ships in the area and coordinating mail, passenger and mate- rial movement. Acting as the financial managers for the ship, Supply personnel worked with the type commanders to obtain both advances and increases to the ship's budget. This allowed the ship to cover extraordinary expenses incurred as a result of Operation Desert Storm. Supply Department played host to a number of special events including several receptions in honor of foreign digni- taries, special meal nights and several ship's picnics. The department was an integral part of most major shipboard evolutions and inspections. If the parts were there when needed, transportation available as required, the crew well fed and with money to spend in the ship's store, it was Supply personnel's hard work and dedication that made it possible.

Hazzard S-2 DI VISI O S-2, the Food Service Division, is responsible for 65 spaces, including the Enlisted Dining Facility, Chief Petty Officers' MessfBerthing areas and six storerooms hold- ing an average deployed inventory of 3S800,000 or approximately 180 days of provi- sions at sea. Operated by 40 mess management specialists and 64 Food Service attendants tem- porarily assigned from other divisions, the Food Service Division's primary mission is to provide meals four times a day Cbreakfast, lunch, dinner, and mid-ratsj to a crew slightly over l,300. Despite short notice, S-2's diligent pre-deployment preps allowed them to subsist the crew of three other ships while in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. In addition, the division regularly hosted picnics in this remote port and provided subsistence items to the small boys alongside. Underway, the Food Service professionals hosted well-received specialty nights, including McDonalds, Long john Silver's and Domino's theme nights to enhance the morale of the crew. S-2 Division was instrumental in the huge success of the USO,s 50th Anniversary Gala in Naples, Italy, hosting more than 500 local dignitaries and guests, as well as several other international receptions hosted to enhance diplomatic relations. During the course of the deployment, the division added several enhancements to their repertoire, including a soft ice cream conefsundae bar, soup! salad! sandwich bar and a potato and taco bar. Several material improvements were made to the spaces, including the additional seating capacity during the deployment and re-tiling of spaces just prior to deployment. To celebrate the deployment's conclusion, S-2 Division served a superlative all-night lobster and seafood dinner on Channel Fever Night. LTJG E.V. Pagal Division Officer MSSC V.E.

Hayes Leading Chief is S S-3 DIVISIO Sales Division CS-35 is comprised of 27 personnel of the ship's servicemen rating who work and coordinate as a team to provide a multitude of valuable crew services. Included in their charter is the operation of the ship's laundry, two barbershops, two vendomats, the Video Arcade, and the Ship's Store. Despite the short notice, the professionals of Sales Division endurance-loaded enough candy, dungarees, cigarettes, sodas, watches, cameras, stereos, soap, detergent and other items for PUGET SOUND crewmembers while deployed, but also enough for those crewmembers of ships alongside in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Having just completed a series of rigorous inspections for the Best Shipis Store com- petition just prior to deployment, S-3 personnel continued to excel throughout the deployment. Providing sales and services in the Ship's Store, vendomats, and Video Arcade resulted in combined sales of over S700,000 and a contribution to the ship's Welfare and Recreation Fund of Sl15,000. Additionally, the division washed over 200,000 pounds of laundry and provided over 2,000 haircuts during this same timeframe. Customer service oriented, consistently well stocked and willing to work long hours to ensure the well-being of their ship- mates, the division's personnel deservedly earned runner-up in the Atlantic Fleet Best Ship's Store competition.

Dimalanta Division Officer Leading Chief .4 s I Disbursing clerks in S-4 Division worked long hours during the deploy- ment to straighten out pay records complicated by special entitlements that accompanied the onset of Operation Desert Storm. During the deployment, sailors aboard USS PUGET SOUND became eligible for Imminent Danger Pay and Tax Exclusion privileges as well as normal deployment entitlements to Family Separation Allowance CFSAD and Sea Pay. To add fiirther complexity to crew pay computations, FSA increased to S75 a month and Imminent Danger Pay increased to S150 a month, retroactive to J anuary. The disbursing clerks worked hard to overcome the obstacle of limited communications dur- ing Desert Storm, often spending late hours at the Jeddah Warehouse' trying to contact DFAS in Cleveland to correct pay discrepancies and fax- ing information to start allotments and DDS for crewmembers. The Travel Section of Disbursing handled a significantly increased workload associated with sending numerous Fly Away Teams to conduct repairs on various ships. Disbursing rose to the challenge of substantially more travel advances and travel claim processing, showing vast improve- ment in this area as noted in a SMI Assist Visit. S4 Division also provided foreign currency exchange services in several ports, a well-received ser- vice te the crew. H-M-KM DK1 K Zuhn DK2 M. B. Six DK2 N. Wolfington N.. N--Q, DKSN E. L.

S-5 DIVI I 0 S-5 Division is comprised of 140 spaces which includes the Ward- room Mess, officer staterooms, the Captain's Mess and Cabin, the Flag Mess and associated staff flag spaces. These areas are operated by six mess management specialists and 16 Food Service attendants on temporary additional duty from other departments. Their prima- ry mission is to provide approximately 48 officers with four meals a day Cbreakfast, lunch, dinner, mid-ratsj and to maintain the materi- al condition and sanitation of all Wardroom and stateroom spaces. Like S-2, Wardroom personnel endurance-loaded provisions for the officers mess, including several specialty items. The Wardroom had ice cream up to the last three days of deployment and the tal- ented mess management specialists of S-5 made their own salad dressings when supplies of ready-made dressing ran out. The Wardrom played host to several official receptions and lun- cheons, as Well as assisting S-2 in organizing and catering the USO 50th Anniversary Gala. They also made major material improve- ments to several spaces and procured a number of items that will enhance Wardroom operation in the future. To finish the deploy- ment in style, the Wardroom crew put on a fantastic lobster dinner at a formal sitting on Channel Fever Night. LTJ G D.R. Crosby Division Officer my 1, MSCSCSWD B.B.

Organized into three sections, this division consists of the Honeywell ANIUYK-65 CVD SNAP I Computer Operations Section, the Maintenance Section and the Information Systems Resources Section. The Operations Section, composed of 15 data processors, is respon- sible for providing all departments real time access to data from the following major software systems: Intermediate Maintenance Manage- ment Systems CIMMS-RTJ which is used for planning, tracking, and up- line reporting of all maintenance actions performed by the IMA, Ship- board Uniform Automated Data Processing Systems CSUADPS-RTD used for tracking and ordering supplies and repair parts for all ship- board requirements as well as financial accounting, Administrative Management Systems CADM-RTD used for persormel and administra- tive management. The Maintenance Section of the division performs all corrective and preventive maintenance for the Honeywell ANYUKY-65 CVD SNAP I Computer System using the talents of PUGET SOUND's data systems technicians. These experts have strong background in mainframe com- puter electronics and were instrumental in maintaining the system with only negligible downtime for the duration of the deployment. The Information Systems Resources Section, composed of three data processors, provide training, problem-solving and hardwarefsoft- ware support to all micro-computer users aboard PUGET SOUND. ADP Division, like their other departmental counterparts, endurance-loaded spare parts and consumables to support ADP opera- tions, including the procurement of 11 UNISYS micro-computer sys- tems prior to deployment. Additionally, these professionals arranged a system groom to prepare the operation for adverse environmental conditions and the absence of technical representative support while deployed. i l Left: DS2 Hawes ensures that data is processed correctly DPl J.

Grady ENS M.C. Hastings Operations Officer CIC Officer The Operations Department is the nerve-center on board PUGET SOUND. Throughout Operation Desert Storm, the department's personnel kept a constant vigil on the ship's surrounding environment. While the quartermasters charted our course for safe navigation, the operations specialists monitored and tracked all radar contacts, including foreign warships, merchant ships, and pleasure crafts. The signalmen were kept busy hoisting flags and sending semaphore and search light messages to all ships within visual contact. Meanwhile, in Radio Central, the radiomen processed and diseminated thousands of messages throughout the ship, as well as communicated electronically with hundreds of ships and shore commands. If the weather forecast or sea conditions were in question, the aerographer's mates had the answers. To ensure all of these evolutions were able to take place, the electronic technicians maintained the ship's electronic equipment. PUGET SOUND,s successful mission during Desert Storm can be greatly attributed to the expertise and professionalism found in the Operations Department. ENS M.D. Oliveira Comm.

The division is comprised of six personnel whose primary underway watch station is Quarter Master of the Watch. The QMOW is responsible for keeping an accurate record of the ship's charted progress toward its next destination or port, and docu- menting all important events and evolutions taking place on the Bridge. Extensive voyage planning, such as preparing charts, publications, navigational briefs and related messages - to advise the fleet of the ship's intended plan of movement and logistic requirements upon arrival - are just a few of the jobs accomplished on a routine basis underway. Working as a team is important for the QMS, especially when at Sea Detail enter- ing or departing a port of call. During Operation Desert Storm, the quartermasters logged more than 20,000 safely naxigated miles, bringing the ship to four ports of callg two transits of the Suez Canal, a passage of the Straits of Messina, and, of course, back across The Big Pond to homeport in Norfolk. The Mobile Environmental Team CMETD, home based in jacksonville, Fla., joined ON Division for the deployment. Consisting of three aerographer's mates serving as a forecaster and two meteorological technicians, the MET provided atmospheric and sea condition reports, as well as assisting aviators during flight quartersfVIRTREP evolutions. They also launched weather balloons for training and performed data input assistance for the newly installedjOTS computer system in Combat Information Center. The electronic wizards of OE Division perform their magic on all of PUGET SOUND's equipment. Responsible for the maintenance and repair of the ship's radar, communication and navigation equipment, the everything techs were in constant demand throughout Operation Desert Storm.

Operation Intelligence Division COIJ consists of a group of highly trained operation specialists working in the Combat Information Center. During the deployment, the division was responsible for the contribution of various reports to the task group commander, including maritime reports CMARREPSJ of shipping and operational reports COPREPSJ of the status of PUGET SOUND. MARREPS assisted the task group commander in the location of all ships in the area of the Red Sea. The division also provided the intelli- gence reports used for the boarding of a merchant vessel known to be a carrier of illegal contraband. A normal day at sea in CIC means 24-hour watches to provide a safe passage for PUGET SOUND. CIC provides the Bridge with information on ships that are in the area but may not be visible. CIC also provides backup navigation. The division helps coordinate special evolutions as well, such as refueling and flight quarters. Whether the. ship was underway or pierside, CIC provides a tacti- cal picture of the area around PUGET SOUND. The radiomen and signalmen of OC and OS Divisions worked their magic with radio waves and visual communications during the demanding, yet highly successful multi-task force operations and numerous major communication in- cho s. Rgdio Central served as the ship's primary source for voice, teletype, record traffic and helo coordination. SMS assist, and sometimes replace, electronic communications through the use of semaphore, flag-hoist and search-light procedures. The professionalism and skill in performing their vital role in support of Operation Desert Storm earned them the title of Communication Experts.

K Y Now each of us from time to time has gazed upon the sea N and watched the warshlps pulling out, to keep the country free. And most ot us have read a book, or heard a lusty tale, about the men who sail these ships, through lightning, wind and hail. lt's down below the waterling that it takes a living toll. A hot-metal living hell that sailors call the hole, where boilers like a helllsh heart, with blood of angry steam and molded gods without remorse, nightmares in a dream. The men who keep the fires lit and make the engines run are strangers to the world of nIght,'and rarely see the sun. They have not time for man or God, no tolerance for fear, their aspect pays no living thing the tribute of a tear. D For there's not much that men can do that these men haven't done, beneath the decks deep in the holes, to make the engines run. And every hour of every day, they keep the watch in hell. For lf the fires ever fail, their shlp's a useless shell. When ships converge to have a war, upon an angry sea, the men below just grlmly smile, at what their fate might be. They're locked below like men loredoomed who hear no battle cry. lt's well assumed that if they're hit, the men below will die. I'v seen these sweat-soaked heroes fight, ln superheated air, tcficeep their ship allve and right, though no one knows they're the So when you see a ship 'pull out, to meet a warlike foe, remember faintly, if you can, the men who sail below. fe EN GINEERI G D PARTME T Engineering Department is responsible for operating and maintaining the ship's propulsion machinery, power, lighting, damage and casualty control equipment, and hotel services, such as hot Water, drinking Water, electricity, heating, and air condition- ing. Prior to and during the deployment, engineers Worked hard to ensure the plant was ready to support an extensive operating schedule, which did not include shut down time for maintenance. It had to be perfect. During the Battle Group's return to Nor- folk, Commander Carrier Group Eight came aboard and was impressed with the ship's ability to sustain an 18-knot-plus transit following five months of non-stop steaming. The sailors of Engineering Department corrected more than 1,200 trouble calls, took on more than one million gallons of fuel, issued 10,000 gallons of lube oil and boosted morale by maintaining hotel services despite manning shortages and extreme temperature conditions during the deployment. The average temperature of the Fire- LT LJ. Vvhite room and Engineroom consistently exceeded 100 degrees. The department also provided Water, steam, and oil to all customer ships alongside PUGET SOUND. Engineers maintained close liaison with their customer ship counterparts to ensure high quality ser- vice in a timely manner. PUGET SOUND engineers, consisting of hard-Working men and- Women of iron, not only met the challenge of their extremely demanding jobs - they also excelled. Chief Engineer P 035 OO l If you're not steaming, you're just along for the ride is the motto of B Division's boiler tech- nicians. Standing port and starboard duty the duration of the five-month deployment in tem- peratures exceeding 100 degrees, the men and Women of the Boiler Division accomplished an impressive amount of work. They steamed five months Without losing fires, enabling PUGET SOUND to superbly provide services necessary to support customer ships alongside. The Fireroom's two 650 PSI boilers supply steam used for propulsion, generation of electric- ity, making fresh Water out of salt water and hotel services used for cooking and dry cleaning. The Oil Lab technicians manage more than one million gallons of fuel and 45,000 gallons of lube oil. They also ensure that each fuel loading and unloading evolution is completed safely.

Matthews LCDR R.M. Hale Admin Officer Chaplain A diverse group of paper-pushers and customer service personnel combine their talents in the Administration Department The department consists of the Admin Office, Personnel, ESO, Command Career Counselor, DAPA, Post Office, Special Services, Public AffairsfSITE TV, 3M, Legal, Master at Arms Force and the Chaplain's Office. Mail Call was anything but routine during Operation Desert Storm. Thousands of letters and packages to Any Sailor from well-wishers across the nation, along with care packages from family and friends, provided the majority of incoming work for the postal clerks. The Material Maintenance Management C3MJ Office supervises the 3M program of the command. Training all personnel for 3M qualifications is just a tiny niche of the 3M Office. Fly-away teams kept Personnel busy during the deployment with TAD orders. Maintaining the entire crew's individual personnel records, along with those of more than 40 additional TAD sailors aboard, was also the responsibility of the personnelmen. ESO offered the crew a variety of college courses to further their educa- tion, as well as providing correspondence courses and ensuring that all eligible sailors took the March advancement exam. Reenlist- ments, separation briefings, Selective Reenlistment Bonus paper- LTJ G S.A McClellan TMC P.C. Vella Safety Officer Leading Chief work and related career enhancement programs were top priorities of the Command Career Counselor, who also spent many hours in the phone warehouse in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, assisting with the negotiation of orders for shipmates scheduled to transfer during the deployment. Serving as Paperwork Central for the entire ship, Admin Office yeomen prepared, routed and mailed every type of official corre- spondence required ofthe command. The responsibility for ensuring discipline and order lies with the Master of Arms Force, which also works closely with the Legal Office. Entertainment and special programs for the crew are the main- stay of three of the department's offices. Special Services provided a variety of tours, including trips to Rome and Paris, as well as various morale-boosting events sponsored by the Welfare and Recreation Committee. Keeping the faith and providing spiritual guidance were just a couple services provided by the Chaplain and his reli- gious program specialists. Ensuring that the crew and families at home stayed abreast of the news was accomplished with a monthly familygram and daily newspaper by Public Affairs!SITE TV. As paperwork continued to flow through In!Out boxes, the department also provided its many services to customer ships. the Chapel. Chaplain Hale gives Mass in 165 N X , E LNC C. A. Butler YNC S. F.

Hayhurst Ship's Bos'n ECK D PARTIWE From the moment of departure on January 30, 1991, Deck Depar'tment was constantly involved in the daily operations and evolutions that made the PUGET SOUND's participation in Operation Desert Storm successful. From complex mooring evolutions to refueling at sea, Deck Department met all chal- lenges that a ship at sea encounters and effectively trained to become a team. Numerous flight operations were proliciently completed While still maintaining around the clockl' bridge Watchstanders. When inport the ship's general appearance dramatically improved due to aggressive maindeck preservation and steady hull maintenance. Crane operations ensured timely repairs and resupply were available to customer ships. Our return trip to Norfolk was marked by pride in what We had accomplished as a department and as a ship. FIRST DIVISIO During PUGET SOUND,s deployment. First Division more than lived up to its motto, Deck's First 8a Finest. Divi- sional sailors accomplished a complete face lift of the port and starboard maindeck, total overhaul of five of the 10 mooring stations and a complete paint out of the ship's port and starboard sides and stern. The division also provided qualified small boat coxswains to drive liberty boats While the ship was anchored in Antalya, Turkey. During the shipis turnover in Naples, the boatswainls mates of First Division prepared the Flight Deck and Third Deck Fantail for the USO 50th Anniversary Gala celebration. First Division's hard work during the deployment reflected the pride and professionalism of its sailors.

It was the com- mand's belief that a publishing contract should not be signed prior to the deployment, as is the policy for most cruise- books, due to the UNCERTAINTY of our short-notice departure. With the expertise of the ship 's photographers in the Photo Lab, production ofthe black and white pages began without the assistance of a publisher. A con tract was signed in june while in Marseille. Special thanks to all of our shipmates who captured the moment and con tributed their color pho- fOS.
