Vw , ROBISON's first port visit on her South 4 Q Pacific adventure was Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. It was .5 a short stay, only two days, but an important one. Pearl offered a last chance to take on supplies and equipment that might not be available over the next three months. Much of the crews time was spent with working details and final systems checks. However, there was time for most to glimpse some of the spectacular sights of our 50th state. ROBISON left Pearl Harbor on july 22 and headed south. Ahead lie seven days at sea, the traditional initiation of shellbacks and the island of Tahiti. Q Y,ov4,,d ,f!.,,5x,4' ,, uf 'f4,:1'f -ff, J., fi. - -.fi iff- 7' ay, ,- iff 1,1 ff ayfjifj if ' I .

USS HOR E CG 30 The USS HORNE accompanied ROBISON on her South Pacific Cruise. The two ships logged a combined total of almost 40,000 miles and visited 18 different ports between them. Although Tahiti and Fiji were the only ports both ships visited together, there was ample opportunity for at sea training and evolutions between them throughout the cruise. With the support of the HORNE, ROBISON crewmen were able to sharpen their skills in areas such as underway replenishments, maneuvering and gunfire exercises and other essential at sea operations.
