Only they know what went through their minds as they watched their loved ones walk up ROANOKE's brow, knowing it would be their last sight of each other for the next six months. f ROANOKE. In the next But there was a trade-off for the men o six months, they were to see some of the most exotic ports in the world. They were to sample the best in oriental cuisine and experience some of the most interesting cultures the world has ever known.

The weather was mild as ROANOKE crossed under the Golden Gate Bridge, but as she hit the open sea, winds gusting up to 50 miles per hour swept the main deck. The wind and the cold were to become the trade-marks of the first two weeks of our deployment as our route took us through the Aleutian Islands, then south along the coast of the Soviet Union. Little did we know that the sometimes trying conditions that began the cruise were nothing when compared to the weather we'd hit during the end of the deployment. -'.f I , , 1 Q., --- V ., M -- ,t - -,,..... m.,.r. - . -- '-Y-- g4.r.,.,3,,,f . gains.. .'-f---,-.'.4ag.A,,..,-M -,,, .. .V A , 'ii I in ...a . 1' few,- ' -94 f ? ,?-M1 v if,--7n'w L f f Q, my 1 r VV-,L ,Y ,Lv A I . 3 Q4 x ,Mal I. - 4 - f sq sl A f' ,Lf Q, lf 4 'WN i xx 'xi f 2 H H 5 N, F ,M 1 'Q Q., 'din Y 1 ' .J ,., ,N A 15 7 li? 1 454241933 f A K. we M ! :Q E I . 4? - -4191 ' qt' if K, K - ff ,gf Y -. 1 J: ,wiv 9 mx Q I' . 5 ff sr ,dm . ff. 541 ,, .1 J, , W4 I k wt K Vi 5 Nw' K Q Q 0 1, 1 -ff' gk Q51 -U' Yr, X sp as 4353?

The port was to be the first on this 1986-87 Westpac, and what a port it was. japan welcomed us with open arms and warm hearts. The polite hospitality of the people of japan was in full swing as the people readied themselves for some two thousand sailors swarming into the small city. And the city was ready for us. The lights of the city lit up the streets around famed Sailor Town , where many night clubs stayed open to serve the sudden surge in the population. Outside the city, the rice fields and handtended gardens provided scenes for outstanding pictures and the crew took full advantage. A camera was a vital part of a sailor's liberty uniform while in Sasebo. The crew left the port with some remorse as we took to the open sea a week later. The islands, like green emeralds spread across the ocean, drifted out of sight as we headed south for the Philippines. is r. QL! I .wg X if 'r Photo by Paul Hildebrandt 7?j,'+- Ll.

A fleet of gaudy, yellow jeepneys waited by the durb while their competitors honked and jostled one another for the few parking spaces left. The bedlam didn't stop after two or three blocks as it does in most sailor towns. Magsaysay Street seemingly stretched on and on, flaunting its best to the sailors of the Pacific Fleet. Those sailors who made it past the myriad of bargains on Magsaysay to the blue jeepneys further down the ' ' ' ' Th t'deOlonaois street, got a chance to see a quieter, more dignified side of the Philippines. e country ou si g p difficult to equal for lush vegetation, cloud-shrouded mountain peaks and breath-taking sunsets.

The place was the 084.40 parallel of the equator in the A , Indian Ocean. The problem? . - Over one-half of the crewmembers onboard the USS ROANOKE were still low-down, good-for-nothing, slimey wogs. There was silence about the ship as ten bells rang the greatest shellback ever aboard - - Davey Jones. The oldest of the old salts spread his words of wisdom throughout the ship and immediately agreed to lead the rest of the shellbacks in the process of cleansing the ship of this wog slime. NS The almighty shellbacks knew what had to be done to cleanse our ship. The purification ritual began with a beauty contest to choose the most voluptuous polywog. After contestants from every division displayed their talents to the mighty Jones, he selected AE3 White to remain at his side and serve him for the evening and the next day's events. Photo by David Andrew At 4:30 the next morning, wog reveille was held and the ever-enthusiastic shellbacks began the initiation process in earnest. Polywogs scampered about the decks as the trusty shellbacks gathered the slimey creatures down on the cargo deck. It was a long and grueling day for the slimey wogs, but slowly and surely, the scum and slime was removed with infinite care from the worn out polywogs. By the end of the morning, the once slimey wogs stood tall and proud for he or she had entered the realm of the trusty sliellback. The rest of the day was spent relaxing at the steel beach picnic on the flight deck. With the ship now cleansed of slime, Davy Jones departed the ship and bid us fair winds and following seas. is Z ta? Eff' fig: d WML- , smog Photo by David Andrews WV 4.

By Mark Sabus and james Carpenter. If you blink as you go by, you'll miss it. Because of it's size Diego Garcia could not begin to handle a whole battle group of sailors on liberty. The ROANOKE could only allow one-third of its crew ashore at one time, so we tried to make the best use of our limited liberty by taking full advantage of all the island had to offer. Diego Garcia is called Fantasy Island by the small force stationed there. It has a bit of everything, if you take the time to look. Those who wanted to relax and have a cold drink packed into either the Seaman's Club at the beach, or the 41 or Acey Deucey clubs in downtown Diego. Others would find a well-stocked assortment of recreational equipment available for use, courtesy of the naval base. Some went swimming, snorkeling and sailing at the beautiful beaches within the island's lagoon. Others went to the tennis courts, gym, softball fields or swimming pool during their spare time. The ROANOKE reserved it's own picnic sight and sponsored the highlight of the week, the ship's picnic. Good attendance was encouraged by free soda, hot dogs, burgers and chips and guaranteed by free beer. New challengers shuffled on and off the volleyball courts all day long while the Captain and Executive Officer had their 4 hands full defending their title as champs at the horeshoe pits. Football, frisbee, hackey-sack and swimming kept just about everybody busy with the exception of those who didn't want to be busy at all but preferred to laze about in the Sl.1l'1. Diego Garcia is no faptasy island, but it provides a nice break when you've been out at sea for a long period of time. Many called home, since we were nearing the mid-point of the cruise and the longest part still to come. The next stop would be the coast of Africa and the calm still waters of the Indian Ocean. is X! ij Photo by Pete Drexler C9 Photo by Paul Hildebrandt If -xx .

There were some tense moments, but the crew of ROANOKE came through with flying colors and possibly cleared the way for the first aircraft carrier anchorage ever in Kilindi Harbor. Before liberty call, however, we were all sure to take another little pink pill which we had been taking since Singapore to guard against Malaria. It wasn't long before we were stepping aboard a water taxi and embarking on a five- minute ride to one of the most exotic ports we were to visit in the course of our deployment. Only moments after departing the liberty boat we found ourselves surrounded by determined vendors anxious to sell thousands of wood carvings of every size, color and description. Kenya provided many types or recreation and entertainment to fill our 6 days of liberty. One and two-day safaris provided an excellent chance to view the panoramic scenery and wildlife ranging from gangly giraffes to majestic lions. An excellent way to pass a hot, steamy African afternoon was to sit on the veranda of one of Mombasa's many hotels, sipping a cool drink qnd mingling with tourists from around the globe. Our last trip down Moi Avenue took us through the arches of ivory tusks and back to the fleet landing There the shilling-hungry salesmen offered rock bottom prices as they tried to unload their wares It was an excellent chance to buy gifts for the upcoming holidays and many ROANOKE sailors took full advantage of the opportunity aS the ship's brow became a virtual stampede of gaudy wooden gazelles elephants and Masai warriors ,Q x A rc---M 9'I '. -'im-.fs j -1 'go xi Q3- ,.I..., M , 0 -4- .-l 56? Perth, Western Australia ,algvf ' Photo by lNilliam Randolph Photo by William Randolph Early in the morning of December 19th, ROANOKE and her crew made her next port of call as she eased into her anchorage outside the small Western Australian city of Rockingham. While Rockingham was quite some distance from the more popular Australian cities of Freemantle and Perth, four busses hired for ROANOKE and USS FLINT, left hourly on the 45-minute ride to both cities. After having been away from the western world for almost half a year, it was refreshing to walk down streets with signs written in English. The sentence that went through many sailors' minds was It's almost like California. Most of us got the chance to catch up on some of the movies that we'd missed since getting underway. Our arrival in Australia couldn't have been timed better, as the America's Cup sailing tournament was approaching its conclusion. The Australian people, recognized the world over as some of the friendliest in the world, lived up to their reputation by taking many of ROANOKE's sailors home with them to share in their own families' holiday celebrations. As we left Australia, it was clear that if Christmas can't be spent at home with families and loved ones, Australia's an excellent second-best. 1 2 Xxx Photo by William Randolph - , 1 ,fi ' v ' x 1-1 ii M' 3 .Xia-W Y Photo by William Randolph ' s TJ -Y T ' .

Workin arties on ROANOKE had worked well into the night, constructing a stage from palettes of soft drinks 8 P on her flight deck and rigging the wiring to handle the electrical demands of a rock concert. Unfortunately, when dawn broke and the band Kansas , with performers from The Doobie Brotherii,dZ1Pablo Cruise , Leroux and San Francisco-based Red 7 , was to arrive from the Carl Vinson, the sun was 1 en behind rain. As show-time neared, the rain continued to fall. Rather than give up the show, the stage on the flight deck was abandoned and the equipment was moved tod ' ' ' d l . ROANOKE's cargo deck. Despite the change in plans, the music started only 45 minutes later than sche u e The crew cheered and sang along to the Doobie Brothers' China Grove and Slow Train Comin ' and classics like Dust in the Wind , Carry on my Wayward Son and Point of Know Return by Kansas. Steve Walsh, keyboardist and vocalist from Kansas , said, You guys are the smallest crown we've had yet, but you're definitely the loudest. The musicians played for one hour and fifteen minutes before closing with a cover of Bruce Springsteen's Born in the U.S.A. . The band had a steak lunch in ROANOKE's enlisted dining facility, followed by an autograph session. Meanwhile their road crew, assisted by a ROANOKE working party, loaded the crew's three thousand pounds of equipment ,back into one of our helos and headed for their next stop, the USS SAN JOSE. The group was on a 30-day global tour of military installations. David Jenkins, lead singer from Pablo Cruise said, The guys over on the carrier keep thanking us for coming here. But, we're here to thank you for being here. out 6 Z l Photo by Randy Malin Photo hy VVilliam Randolph QACH Photo by William Randolph all -v 'fm w-an T 1. unqq- lv-.A ., K urnnvarndl- I 9 - '-f?'f'f'l'L55 f1'i?

A talent show and auction started on ROANOKE's flight deck at 1 p.m. The prizes of 100, 50 and 25 dollars attracted 8 bands. The winners were selected by a panel of judges chosen from among the crew. The first and second prizes were split between vocalistfguitarist Chief Boiler Technician Kenneth McKaughan and Engineman James Weatherford. Third place went to the rap group of Third Class Machinist Mate Mark Coles and Seaman Craig Ward. While the acts were setting up, auctioneer Fireman Mark Obyrne of Rochester, Minn. took the stage. Unclaimed articles from the ship's lost and found and personal items from the crew made up most of the ' - l'b k' ked in b the auction. All personal items were sold on a 107, commission. Pour 72 and one 96- hour 1 erties ic y command, however, turned out to be the big fund-raiser, bringing in more than 5700. The 53000 raised by the day's events has been donated to the ship's Combined Federal Campaign Fund. . x -4 Rig? x N Qx S Y N Q X X .

The Air Det, while taking part in all of the other evolutions on board, like field days and zone inspections, had the additional responsibility of keeping their two H-46 helos in perfect working condition. Maintaining such fragile crafts is no job for the slip-shod. A single mistake could cost lives in the middle of the Pacific or Indian Oceans. Their care and attention to detail has enabled the pilots of the Air Det to make literally hundreds of successful Vertical Replenishments, which is one of ROANOKE's methods in transferring cargo to the other ships in Battle Group Charlie.

And most of us has read a book or heard a lusty tale About men who sail these ships through lightning, wind and hail. But there's a place within each ship that legend fails to teach. lt's down below the water line it takes a living toll A hot metal living hell that sailors call The Hole . It houses engines run by steam that makes the shaft go round A place of fire and noise and heat, that beats your spirits downb. Where boilers like a hellish heart, with blood of angry steam, Are of moulded gods without remorse, are nightmares in a dream. When ships converge to have a war, upon an angry sea The men below just grimly smile at what their fate might be. They're locked in below like men fore doomed, who hear no battle cry. lt's well assumed that if they're hit, the men below will die. For every day is a war down there, when gauges all read red, Twelve hundred pounds of heated steam can kill you mighty dead. l've seen the sweat soaked heros fight, in super-heated air To keep their ship alive and right, though no one knows they're there. And thus they'll fight For ages on till warships sail no more, Amid the boilers' mighty heat and the turbines hellish roar. So when you see a ship pull out, to meet a warlike foe, Remember faintly, if you can, the sailors down below.
