Christmas at sea was highlighted Q by movies of the dependents' San Diego, a delicious ,dinner followed by a talent show, 'and a special Christmas mail delivery by helicopter. The sun was rarely seen the whole time on SAR station. After being relieved of our Search and Rescue duties by USS CRIDLEY QDLG- ,K 211, we anxiously made our way around Hainan Island and northward for five day's in Hong I atches, J Kong which was, for most of us, the recreational high point of the cruise.

On 2 February we were on our way for the second time to the Q . Gulf of Tonkin to assume duties as a Search and Rescue Unit, this time with USS BRINKLEY J BASS QDD-8875 as our running mate.

You ask, What did First Division do during the cruise? Well let's see. The men of First Division rigged and unrigged stations for thirty-one underway refuelings, and nine underway replenishments. This is arduous work, and quite hazardous. Yet First Division had no mishaps even while conducting the great percentage of these evolutions at night Qduring normal sleeping hoursj. The painting and general maintenance to the topside area performed by lst Division made it possible for all R. K. TURNER sailors to be proud of the appearance of their ship. This, of course, is to be expected, but with the months of damp, cold, and rough weather, topside maintenance became a battle of will power with First Division pitted against Mother Nature. First Division won the battle, and TURNER looked great in every port. There are many other noteworthy facts. Each man spent hundreds of hours by the life boats as back up to the helicopter during SAR Alerts and Flight Quarters . Many men ad- vanced in rating. The Division maintained an outstanding record of conduct while ashore. But, the most important thing lst Division did was GROW. We grew, to the last man, in knowledge of our job, in confidence in ourselves and our ship, in pride in our ship, our Navy and the job we are doing for our country, and for peace.

Cn through the night the watch is held and, although the gun's metal has never been tested, these guns are a constant reminder to all that this ship is a man-of-war. After a long stay on the line, the gunners have a long standing reputation as a fun loving division while on the beach. Second division set an outstanding standard of conduct while ashore. Qlt is easy when 4052, are restrictedl. There have been many parties on the beach and there have been many parties at sea, but the one obstacle found most unrelenting by a couple of gunners was a certain bridge at pier ll, Yolcosuka. These nameless gm1ner's mates have blazed a new trail for those who think that crossing over a bridge is the only way to get on the other side. fy. rf W' Sf fl ,MN-J- W1 A K, Nui But sir, I'd rather do it myself! for aa 5 J THE RED BA RON fzlx 'I' s x as 1 .

As these sounds echo along the passageways of Richmond K. Turner, men of the AS division hasten to man their positions as part of the anti- submarine warfare team. Tasked with the detection, classification and eventual destruction of enemy submarines, the division plays an important part in one of the many roles of the ship. Many long hours of maintenance and training proved invaluable in developing the utmost in individual and team effort. Of course the cruise provided all division members with the opportunity to greet old friends 1 and meet new ones in all ports of call. Perhaps one of the most important phases of our P WESTPAC tour was the people to people contact with those in the Far East. The good will and E mutual understanding fostered by our good will ambassadors will be long remembered. i INS, P. RICHARD, N. YOUNG, T. RANKLN, c. FLYNN, c. BROWN, Front Row QL-RQD.

There were many long hours at condition three, and plenty of hard work keeping the gear at peak operating condition, which all hands did well as noted by the up time of the Fire Control System. The most memorable part of the cruise will be the liberty hours! Though always trying to put our best foot forward we sometimes tripped over it and the ensuing antics undoubtedly brought Fox division the dubious honor as the leaders of liberty call. f 4 1 5 R I.

TURNER's terrier missile systems at peak readiness for firing. To accomplish their job successfully, they had to be proficient in a number of fields. Knowledge of mechanics was necessary for adjusting and repairing the heavy machinery used in the launching systems . They are familiar with electronics, for they work with motors and generators and test and repair vacuum tube, transistor and magnetic amplifiers. Extensive use of hydraulic and pneumatic devices made W Division sailors specialists in this field also. Many of W Division participated in the tours to Tokyo and Hakone. In Hong Kong, Thompson infuriated the whole ship by winning the Hong Kong raffle --five days leave and tW0 hundred dollars. The steak dinner and party at the Crazy Horse Saloon in Hong Kong Will also be remembered as a highlight of the cruise. 20 V , I - in up N Ki to 5 W R S e f tj Nm 'Ever'body got to do it sometime.

LEONARD This cruise has been one of accomplishment and progress for the Radarmen. At the start of our deployment there were a great number of new faces on board - many were seamen or seamen apprentices with little, if any, shipboard experience. During the past six months they have grown into an effective CIC Team and take pride in their proven ability and skills . The hard work, long hours, and port and starboard watch standing will be remembered for a long time, but there were fun and laughter to be shared also.

TURNER's 1966-67 deployment proved to be a busy and, and many times, hectic period for OC Division, both for the radio gang and for the flag bag boys. Even during our all too infrequent periods inport, there were always a never ending stream of messages to be processed, visual watches to be stood, cleaning and painting to be done, and modifica- tions to equipment and spaces to be made. Under the guidance of Chiefs Bryant and Cates, the communications team provided the ship with prompt service, ensuring that accurate information was processed and delivered promptly, no matter what hour of the day or night. The men in Radio Central will not soon forget the several calls to SAR Alert nor will the Signalmen fail to recall the underway refueling and replenishments made during our time on Yankee Station. There were, however, compensations for the long hours at sea in the form of six days in Hong Kong where OC Division nearly bought out the whole city, and also many good times in japan. When an OC liberty party hit the beach in Olongapo, you could be sure there would be a hot time in the old town that night. The Men of OC Division worked hard and played hard this cruise . Their efforts have been rewarded by a job well done. 28 5 A5 gi f f I w ?1g ,vr. ,vrfwmnmm F tif' f Zinn-, ,a,F.?i-. - A , M- ,pf-.,-I Take a left at the fantail and go dow n- . , u N 41 ,,n- K , we L XY I.et's see O- R- I- G- - - X1 0 0600 DQ O U 0 CO' oo 0 0 OOO Q0 O ,D 0 0 ,M Q fC 00059 99900 I ,. lb.

During this cruise the division celebrated with parties in Yokosuka, japan, at the Kanko Hotel, and on the beach at Grande Island, Republic of the Philippines. In spite of sunburn, sharp - shelled sand, and salty Yokosuka taxi drivers, a fine time was enjoyed by all. Along with the fine times, all members profited professionally as one by one the rigorous demands made on each of us Yankee Team crewmembers were welcomed, accepted and ful- filled.

Farewell salute The last gangplnlc Sailors come and go many times in the life-span of a shi ' new f l d d p, aces are earne an departed ones forgotten. However, there must be exceptions to every rule, and such an GX- ception was noted with the departure of Senior Chief Petty Officer Boyd. RICHMOND K. TURNER owes a debt of sincere gratitude to Chief Boyd. His seemingly inexhaustible store of knowledge and his untiring efforts in Camden, New jersey back in the days of the ship's infancy did much to help ensure that everything was shipshape and Bristol fashion. From that time to the day he departed, homeward bound for a well deserved re- tirement, Chief Boyd continually demonstrated all those f' ' ine qualities that set him apart as a highly respected and admired leader f ' o men and as an unequalled expert in his field of guided missile fire control. His philosophy of Work hard when th ' b d d ' ere s work to e one an play hard when work is through was a source of inspiration and guidance for all who worked for him. No, though sailors may come, and sailors may go, ALL are not forgotten. . . 52 I -lf Hx -1 W OTHERS 0 ' , Q!
