GMM 75 KW JAW4!5M W TH E UOSOSC, ROCHESTER 11956 REZRSD NAVY DEPARTMENT LIBRNU WELFARE A D RECREATIO ACTI ITIE 0 BOARD THE .S.S. ROCHE TER Welfare and Recreation means many things to those of us who have service experience either afioat or ashore. First in coming to our attention are things such as movies, sporting events, and so forth, that somebody always seems to sponser. On the Rochester, ithese 'activities are the result of the work and attention 'of many people from the captain on down. Two organized groups of representatives Qf all departments and divisions on thegshipipresent their views arid Each agreement on programs to beffollowed: 'The jdirect representatives of the crew are the Enlisteil Welfare andfiRecreation Corrrinittee, where the desires of the crew are first made known afier discussion. This group prepares 'its recommendations to bQforwarded to the Welfare and Recreation Council by the ships Special Services officer who sits in on Welfareff and Recreation Committee meetings as an ex-officio member. The Welfare and Recreation Council is composed of ship's ofiicers, and here too representation is on a departmental basis and includes the Chaplain. In the Council the suggestions of the enlisted Committee are given careful consideration and comparison is made with the projected plans for the year and the available funds. Funds for Welfare and Recreation activities come from our ship's store and soda fountain and this is the only regular source. The success of our ship's store as a business then determines how much money will be available for crew's recreation expense. The money we expect to earn, based on past experiences, is allocated into general categories such as athletics, movies, magazines, religious expense, and so forth, at the beginning of each year It is within these financial limits that plans are laid for the coming year. On board the Rochester this year there have been more Welfare and Recreation sponsored activities than many realize. A brief resume of some of the things that have been done will help to tell the Welfare and Recreation story. In the Naval Ship- yard at San Francisco the most successful project was a bowling league with as much divisional basketball being played as facilities would allow. Spring sports ran into our Underway Training period and the preparations for the coming cruise. As a result they were pretty much limited to individual sports and a few challenge softball games with the ship's team playing the teams of the other cruisers in the division. Our team played well and came in second in this series of games. During this period our ship's Hobby Shop came into being with the guidance of Mr. Citron, the ship's radio electrician. This activity has proven to be popular on the cruise and has furnished a lot of recreation for members of the crew. The big events immediately prior to our departure were all of the entertainment that the Padre managed to secure for us in the form of fantail shows, a movie premiere, and last but best- our fine ship's party. The ship's party was the first of its kind the Rochester has had in some time and was well received by all hands and all of the effort put into it was appreciated. Photographs of these events will be found in this volume. A full seasonal athletic program has been carried on in the Far East with the usual problems with weather and facilities. The biggest sporting event was two league divisional softball league with Ensign Fitpatrick as manager. Plans are underway to continue this program in the future. This brief account of only a few of the many activities does not present a full picture of Welfare and Recreation but it does point out some of the significant features of our organization and some of the things that have been accomplished by it this past year. Another activity of the Welirre and Recreation council is this cruise book. In publishing this book it is hoped to provide a permenant souvenir of the 1956 Cruise as another XVelEare and Recreation service. fliope that you enjoy it.-Edd use ii ri til I1 dd nr' N' ji ji Qi rf' sv V' QW' M s F' n nf' f' ,Ji F' I' :fp uf' if Table of Contents.. .USS Rochester. . .Western Pacific Cruise 19 6 Command ....

FORCE OPERATIO When operating at sea, a heavy cruiser such as the Rochester, will usually be found in one of two situations, either the ship will be operating independently or as a unit in a large task force consisting of many ships. In the first case, the cruiser will not be expecting any unusual action to endanger the safety of the ship, and is operating alone in order to train its crew, or merely to go from one place to another. In the second case, the task force operation, the cruiser has joined up with the many other ships for the reason that some sort of action may be imminent and to allow for added all around protection. The main job of a task force today is this added protection, and the many ships in the force have varied jobs to attend to that will add to this goal of greater safety from a possible enemy attack. The destroyers in such a force serve as sentries and are posted far out in front of the task force and on each side. Their tasks are of a dual nature, they are on guard against a possible submarine attack with their sonar gear, and they are equally alert for the first possible contact of approaching surface or air targets on their radar scopes. Within this first guard, come the larger ships of the force, of which the carriers today are the most important single element. It is the carrier forces today which can defend the task force against attack by use of its planes, and can also, with equal ease launch the power of the attacking arm of the task force against a country or target many miles over the horizon. To aid the carriers in the defense of the task force, today, are the heavy combatants such as the Rochester, who have two important tasks to perform in defense of the task force. Their prime purpose is the use of their guns as anti-aircraft defense, and their secondary mission is that of radar search and general coordination of the task force defense. Mingled with the carriers and other heavy fighting ships, are the all-important support ships without which no task force could stay at sea for long. The oil tankers, cargo ships, and ammunition ships of todays task groups are fully as necessary to the task force as any of the large fighting ships. So it is, that a task force at sea is truly an amazing sight, streaching often for miles. and made up of many dihietent types of vessels, each there for a speciiic purpose. The ships may be dispersed in a vetiety of formations as the situation warrants. yet despite the size of the force, and the rapid operating speed, over-all tactical control is never lost. To launch their planes, the carriers usually turn into the wind, which ordinarily calls for the whole task force to shift with them. As one mass, the ships in formation wheel to the new desired direction, some going at full speed, others slackening their pace, so that in the overall pattern of the task force, the defense capabilities are not weakened by the new shift. Equally difficult is the handling of the replenishing of the many ships in the task force, for each ship must come up alongside the oil tanker, provision ship, or ammunition ship for a transfer of the supplies from the support ship to the other vessel. One hy one, the ships take their turn coming alongside, each in proper order so the supply ship can have the provisions ready for each ship. In good or had vqeatlier, day or night, these transfers can he carried out. The life of tl,e comhatant ship depends an tlese supplies of ammunition, fuel, and food 'mal rf, the guns. rnen, and engines on hoard. ln every forte. tht- olliter in tactical command tonttols the formation and originates orders to the other ships in the force in the proper sequence to assure that there is no confusion. A ship is designated the guide ship for a reference for all inanuevers that the force may make. By using this guide as a point of reference, manuevers are carried out correctly with each ship keeping its designated spot in the task force. Collisions and the scattering of the ships are avoided in this manner. The task force of today's Navy is a complex thing, which by a system of rules and directions functions as a single huge unit. Nowhere is this more apparent than when the aircraft carriers are launching planes or when the support ships are reprovisioning the force. Using these support operations, a task force can stay at sea from three to six months if necessary, and this ability to remain at sea is an important factor in the control of the seas in wartime. Thus the modern concept of the task force has come to be a standard operating procedure in today's Navy. and the Rochester in this cruise has spent many days at sea in just such operations, perfecting the necessary maneuvers that have made the United States Navy what it is today-the finest in the world. an 6 ,.. , ..- in . are ,xt H , , .

When Communist North Korea attacked South Korea in ,june 1950, only one carrier and a handful of destroyers were in the Western Pacific, and they were scattered from Japan to the Philippines. These ships were woefully undermanned with peacetime complements of men which were totally inadequate for wartime operations. The Seventh Fleet was organized in the fall of 1949, but was redesignated from Seventh Task Fleet in February the following year. With the outbreak of hostilities in Korea, the Fleet came under the overall unified command of General Douglas MacArthur. It has functioned as a potent element of the UN Command up to the present time. The Formosa Patrol, a function of the Seventh Fleet, was established to implement President Truman's directive of June 28, 1950. Its purpose is to defend Formosa against attack by the Chinese Communists. This is just a small portion of the Fleet's job, as only a small group of destroyers has been required to Patrol Formosa Straits sine the patrol was ordered. During most of the Korean War, the three-star flag of the Seventh Fleet commander had been carried in battleships. Four battlewagons, the Missouri, New Jersey, Iowa and Wisconsin shuttled in and out of the Far East carrying the Navy's top seagoing commander in this area. The aircraft carriers-an offensive weapon that takes the war to the enemy on the seas and inland-formed a vital Part of the Seventh Fleet since its establishment. A total of 15 attack carriers participated in the Korean War as Task Force 77. Most of their action was confined to the east coast of Korea where Naval action was heaviest. Other small carriers, of the escort or light class, operated off Korea's west coast as part of Task Force 95. The Seventh Fleet cruisers contributed a large share to the combating of Communist forces in Korea with an incessant bombardment of five, six and eight-inch shells along both coastlines. The light cruiser USS Juneau was the first Seventh Fleet unit to fire on Korea when she bombarded Samchok on Korea's east coast in june 1950. Combined with these major capital ships were the hundreds of destroyers, minesweepers, amphibious landing ships, and the myriad of auxiliary ships necessary to keep a combatant force in operation throughout the Far East. The Seventh Fleet participated in every major Naval strike and operation during the Korean War. Her operation was then three-fold: flj to maintain control of vital sea areas in the Fat Eastg f2j to support the UN action in Korea by coordinating air effort, gunfire and blockade, and f3j to conduct other operations and provide support to other forces as directed in order to further the policy of the United States in the Far East. Since the Korean War was brought to an end in july 1953, the Seventh Fleet has continued in its mission of controlling vital sea lanes in the Far East. It has also concentrated efforts on one of the heaviest training schedules ever undertaken by any fleet. Many of these exercises feature the combined operation of the several armed forces of the United States. On April 1, 1954, the battleship USS Wisconsin steamed toward the United States and heavy cruisers became flagships of the Seventh Fleet. First cruiser to carry the three-star flags of the fleet command after the departure of the battleships was the USS Rochester, a veteran of two tours of Korean combat duty. After the Rochester served as flagship for approximately two months, she was relieved on May 28, 1954, by the USS Saint Paul. In September of 1954, tension mounted when Chinese Nationalist and Communist artillery began exchanging barages between the island of Amoy and Quemoy off the China mainland. The Saint Paul steamed at full speed from the northern Japanese port of Hakodate to Keelung, Formosa to await developments. Wlien the tension relaxed, the flagship carried out the remainder of her schedule until she was relieved by the USS Helena in Yokosuka on 11 October 1954. In late 1954, Chinese Communist forces began to make concentrated attacks upon the Chinese Nationalist-held Tachen Islands some 200 miles to the north-west of Formosa. From 24 january to 5 February 1955, Seventh Fleet units arrived at the usually quiet harbor of Keelung to await further orders from the Fleet Commander. The Seventh Fleet was ordered to stand by for possible assistance to the Chinese Nationalists in evacuating the Tachens. On the morning of 6 February, 1955, the orders came from President Eisenhower to procede with the operation. During the period 6 to 14 February, 1955, units of the Seventh Fleet and the Chinese Nationalist Navy successfully evacuated more than 18,000 civilians and 20,000 military personnel from the Tachen Islands. Every useable structure and every piece equipment that could not be transported to Formosa were destroyed. No casualties were sustained by U. S. personnel during the evacuation. On 15 February when the operation was secured, the flagship Helena was the last vessel to leave the scene. She returned briefly to Keelung. On 4 March 1955, the USS Rochester relieved the USS Helena as flagship for the Seventh Fleet. On 7 May 1955, Commander Seventh Fleet transferred his flag to the USS Eldorado and on 17 August 1955 to the heavy cruiser USS Saint Paul. In October 1955, the flag was transferred to the USS Bremerton for a brief period returning to the Saint Paul that same month. Vice Admiral Stuart H. Ingersoll, USN, assumed Command of the United States Seventh Fleet on 19 December 1955, relieving Vice Admiral A.M. Pride, USN. Admiral Ingersoll served as Chief of Staff to the Commaneer in Chief, United States Atlantic Fleet prior to reporting to his present duty as Commander Seventh Fleet. The Helena returned to the Far East and relieved the Saint Paul as flagship of Commander Seventh Fleet in Yokosuka, japan on 27 january 1956. On 28 june 1956 the Rochester once again took her place on station as the Flagship for the Seventh Fleet and has served in that capacity for the duration of her 1956 cruise. During this period, the Seventh Fleet engaged in a number of operations and manuvers, prominent among which was the air and sea search for possible survivors of a shot-down P 5 M which crashed off the coast of China.

M ,gg y it A V nw - . N TYPHCOONS A typhoon is born somewhere out in the middle of the Pacific between the latitudes of 10 and 20 degrees. The conditions have to be just right-the water temperature around 800 for one of these storms to be born and grow up. At irst there is nothing to seperate a typhoon from an ordinary thunder storm-a section of air has become heated and has risen up into the upper atmosphere thus creating a low pressure area which makes the barometer fall. The warm moist air becomes cooler as it rises and condenses out its moisture into rain, and as the air grows still colder it becomes more dense to the point that it returns to its original low level of altitude, forming the doughnut circulation of a normal storm. Somewhere about this stage of the storms development something happens to it that changes our thunderstorm into a small but reconizable typhoon. The storm has formed around an axis and is revolving slowly with its winds spiraling into the center. The winds are revolving counterclockwise and have formed a definite circular eye at the center of the storm. The whole storm now begins to move slowly westward, and a new typhoon is on its wild way towards Asia. It may grow from a small typhoon of some hundred miles in diameter to a 600 mile monster with winds up to 200 miles an hour at its center. It may move along slowly or speed up to a 25 knot clip, and worst of all-it may go North, South, East, or West, or any combination of these directions posing a very real threat to any ship or island so unlucky as to be in its path. Were we to be on such a ship that found itself in the path of our new typhoon, we would find ourselves in a situation similar to this-we would have probably just passed a quiet day at sea-quite calm, a bit hot, but except for some wisps of cirrus clouds trailing over our heads, a clear day. By the end of the day the clouds would be larger, thicker and would all seem to be coming from one spot in the sky over the horizon. At the same time and from the same direction a noticeable swell of waves would start. As the sun sets, the wind will begin to increase in strength, a steady downpour of rain would start, and the waves would continue to get larger. Our now quiet day at sea has become a thing of the past. During the early hours of the night, the wind would shift some ninety degrees from the direction of the waves and reach gale force of 35 to 40 knots. By midnight the barometer would have fallen several inches and our ship would be in the teeth of the typhoon. Huge waves will come smashing out of the darkness, their tops sheared off by the force of the winds, and dash over our struggling ship. The wind, now approaching 60 or 70 knots, will be blowing some forty-five degrees off the waves direction and adding its strength to that of the waves. On thru the early hours of the morning the storm will increase in fury until at last, when morning should be here, the storm's darkness prevents any light from finding us-Athe wind and waves reach their peak of violence and it might well be that we find ourselves, and our ship, added to the list of ships that have never been seen again. Providing we survive this climax of the storms elements, a sudden calm should fall on ff., and we Ho f l lind ourselves in that strange wonders the typhoon's eye. Wliere before the winds were a ahrielfing Tlfifi rriiiez an lmul-7 fhcy are now gentle gusts, ofa confused nature that seems to come from this way and now from that, The seas will be confused too, mountainous now, with no wind to flatten their crests. Our barorneter will be reading a minus 2 or 5 inches, and around us, towering up to forty thousand feet, and visible, now, in the early morning light, would be a wall of clouds completely enclosing the eye , and looking like a giant bowl that held a few square miles of uneasy sea and our ship in its bottom. lfor and hour or so, we might be becalmed in this amazing L'eye and have a short rest from the terrible poundings of wind and rain, but sooner or later it would pass over us and we would enter the other side of the storm. Once again the light would dim and the waves would whip themselves to a frenzy, as the wind would commence to howl around us, but this time from the exact opposite directions-where before the winds were from our port hand, they are now from our starboard side, and the waves are coming from behind us rather than from dead ahead as before. XWe have passed the worst of the storm and the and waves are not as strong as before. Still, the hours must pass before we can relax, and when evening comes of this wild day, we will be still concerned with some wild rain squalls and rough and dangerous seas. The typhoon has passed us by. If this storm had been the typhoon of September 1944 and our ship the heavy cruiser Pittsburg, we would have lost one hundred and forty feet of our boww-if this storm had been the typhoon of .Tune 1945 and our ship a destroyer, all hands would have been lost. A Pacific typhoon is no joke. Its not just a L' big wind although that is what the word means in Formosan. lt is a power that nothing in the world can match. lt makes an Q-H bomb seem puny in comparison. The amounts of energy produced in one hour in such a storm is equal to the annual output of all the electric-power stations in the United States. lt is a force wliith is capable of sinking a large righting ship. Of nt' destroying whole cities and towns, and can ltill thousands of people. Typhoons are as dangerous as any enemy that a ship might ever face, and as such a threat, are carefully studied and xxatrlied so that their danger Inav lac' avoided in the future. By ttkmg 1 diigram or 1 typhoon, and cutting it into four parts, we can find that there are certain facts to be learned about these different P1lftSH of the storm. For one thing, if we face along the path of a typhoon, xve can say that die rndit snle of the typhtxnn is niore dangerous than the left because the dnecthdn of the vdnd has a tendence to carry a ship along in the path of the SIOIID, and capture 'I it, so to speak, and hold if in us padm Tlus B espedahy Uue ofthe top nght quaner ofthe sunny u B henethatthe vdndsand saw conunne to form the most violent portion of the typhoon. This section is called by sailors the dangerous semi-circle and us avokhnce B the hmt nue of dodgnngtyphoons In order to be able to use this rule, it is necessary that an established track of the typhoons future direction be determined so that the ship may take action to avoid it. Reports by radio from ships, weather stations, and reconnaisance aircraft can, in this modern age, quickly give the storms positions, and with this knowledge we can begin to tell something about the typhoonis future progress. By using the past records of old typhoons, we have established the idea of a ff normal 4 path of a typhoon for certain positions. That is, ifa typhoon is heard of in a certain latitude and longitude, it will probably follow a specific path, due to prevailing winds at high altitude which blow constantly regardless of the typhoon, and which will steer the typhoon on a regular course. Unfortunatly, there are always typhoons that don't follow the predicted path, and consequently this normal track can only be used as an aid, and not as an infallable rule in predicting which way the storm vvnl travel In order to take in account all the erratic twists and curvings that a typhoon is capable of, sailors have a method for defining the area to stay away from when a typhoon is approachingg and it works something like this: Suppose a typhoon is reported at point A moving westward at ten knots. By drawing lines 40 degrees on either side of the typhoon track and taking the reported speed of the storm Q10 knotsj, multiplying this ten knots by twenty-four hours of the next day, you arrive at the area where the storm will be in the next twenty- four hours. To be doubly safe, the navigator will double the distance along the track Q24 X 10-240, 240 X 2-480D and extend the area to a distance of four hundred and eighty miles away from the typhoons reported position. This is called the Danger Area, and the ship should always avoid getting into it. In this manner, a ship will nearly always be sure of avoiding an approaching typhoon. Of course many things can happen that can make avoiding this danger area impossible, and sometimes a ship with all the knowledge and science in the world cannot hehp but be caughtin the vkience of a typhoon. 4 'W DANGER fffwllimls -0.41 ' N Q N , , -I1 , I, I 1 I,.

It is re-assuring, because man, as a dependent creature, gives evidence, in the symbol of the church steeple, of his need for Divine Guidance in all he undertakes for the welhtre of his fellowman. What the church-steeple proclaims of a town, the church-pennant proclaims on a ship. The privileged place it holds and the distinctive honor it enjoys, proclaims the fact that the Navy man gives first allegiance to his God in order that he may give stronger loyalty to his country. The church pennant is the only flag which is ever hoisted above the American Stars and Stripes. Every Sunday throughout the Navy on land and at sea, church-call is sounded: Church-call-church-call! Divine Services will be held in live minutes. Knock off all games and unnecessary work. The smoking lamp is out. Keep silence about the decks Every Sunday throughout the Navy on land at sea, in stately and beautifully appointed Navy Chapels or the main decks or lower decks of ships cruising at sea or lying at anchor, you will find the bowed heads of Navy men attending Divine Services. You will hear their voices raised in hymn and prayer. Protestant men, of the Hebrew faith, carrying on their own religious traditionsg Catholic men following the perpetual Sacrifice of the Mass. All proclaiming their need of Divine Guidance and Divine Strength in the ever-constant battle of manys inner struggle for betterment of self It is little wonder, then, that Navy men at prayer are among the most inspirational spectacles seen anywhere. The virilliry of their sincerity and the brutal honesty of their humility, reveal their deep conviction that without loyalty to the Creator there can be no true loyalty to any creature, man or country. The Chaplain, then, as a minister of religion occupies an important position in the Navy man's life. However, his work is not limited strictly to the religious field. He is friend and counselor, buddy and advisor. He is the white-hat's champion and the officer's associate. He holds the rank of a Naval officer but it is not the rank which gives him easy access to his officers and crew, but the little religious emblem which designates him as ffPadre ! So close is the chaplain to the men of his floating parish, so warmly reassuring his association with them, that well may his confers in the civilian ministry envy him. Is it any wonder, then, that he grows to love his men deeply? Is it any wonder, then, that, in spite of whatever faults and imperfections of men break out on the face of their humanness from time to time, he can grow stronger in the conviction that there is no such thing as a really bad boy ? An inability to understand this seemingly extravagant statement is the inability to understand Navy men as well as the Navy Chaplain. r 1 X xi Above-The Padre says Mass on the fantail. Below-Highline transfers enable the small ships to have the services of the chaplain.

Within two days of the crash, ships searching the area had recovered the body of one of the plane's crew and also bits of wreckage of the plane itself. The condition of the wreckage indicated that the plane had been on fire at the moment of the crash, and hopes grew dim for the discovery of any survivors. In a communique from the Rochester, Vice Admiral Ingersoll told the world that although at this time there appears to be little remaining hope that survivors will be found, there is a possibility that other bodies may be recovered, and the search will be continued until all possibilities have ben exhaustedf, A search for bodies and wreckage on the open seas is an extremely difiicult task, and the problems became even more difficult and numerous when Typhoon Emma swept through the area disrupting the operations for several days. At last, on 13 September, Vice Admiral Ingersoll, by order of the Chief of Naval Operations, discontinued the search and sent the ships back to their normal operations. , x I? gf if rf Crewmembers of the USS DENNIS BUCKLEY lend a hand in swinging aboard one of the gas tanks recovered in the wreckage of the U. S. Navy PSM Mercator which was shot down in the East China Sea. The DENNIS BUCKLEY is a unit of the Seventh Fleer which was engaged in an intensive sea and air rescue search for the missing aircraft. An unidentified oflicer from the USS DENNIS J. BUCKLEY inspects a wheel from the U.S. Navy PSM Mercator which was shot down last week while on a routine patrol mission in the East China Sea. The BUCKLEY is a unit of the Seventh Fleet which took part in last week's concentrated sea and air search for the missing aircraft. ff? E During these trying days, the Rochester had been operating in the area of the search, serving as the over-all command ship for the operation and playing a vital role as the link between the searching ships and the tactical com- manders of the Pacihc Theater. While the attack carriers, cruisers, destroyers, submarines, transports, repair ships, minesweepers, tankers, and supply ships in the task force lowered their flags to halfmast, memorial services were held the afternoon of 13 September 1956 on the fantail of the Rochester to honor the brave men who were lost in the ill-fated plane. The muted notes of a bugle playing the sad notes of taps mingled with the sharp crack of rifles hred by the Honor Guard of Marines, and as Father Follard, the Rochester and Seventh Fleet Chaplain led the assembled crew in as prayer, the last hnal tribute was paid to our dead comrades-in-arms. The officers and men of the Rochester played an important part in this operation, and can share with the other officers and men of the Seventh Fleet the following commendation from the Commander in Chief of the Pacific Fleet: IT IS NOTED WITH PLEASURE, THAT THE SEVENTH FLEET WAS READY TO CARRY OUT THIS MISSION AND DID SO UNTIL PROHIBITIVE WEATHER PREVAILED X PROVING ONCE AGAIN THAT THE SEVENTH FLEET CAN ACCEPT ANY TYPE OF OPERATION AT ANYTIME ,Yb, if ' In 1 fa-I..-5 -Q. f.-'I Ili 'Qt-ef H' at I r ti if , i .i 1 237 U-'W 'lf' ll - it '9 pm' '., ,,gw 'f-1 -' Y?

These men, from all walks of professional and business life, were invited on this trip to better acquaint them, as leaders in their own com- munities, with the way the Navy does the job assigned it. Their range of personal interests ran the gamut from farm editor to lawyer but in common they had one f I salient factor, they were alert to the problems facing all of us and were taking this opportunity to learn more about how the Navy fits into the modern military structure. As a group and to a man these gentlemen made a genuine impression upon us during their brief stay aboard- We can only hope that they enjoyed the trip as much as we enjoyed having them aboard. 1,- 5 K .

The goal of all gunnery operations is greatest accuracy at the longest range. combined with a high rate of fire. Wl1etl1er the target is a fast enemy jet or a gun emplacement slowing down an amphibious landing. greater range and speed of firing of the Rochesters guns will enable it to stay out of range of the enemy's own guns. Range and rate of hte are the responsibility of the gunners-mates. loaders, and handlers. Accuracy, as well as the range at which accuracy is aquired, are dependent upon fire control technicians and the intricate gear which they maintain, repair and operate. This sounds like a task for many men and indeed it is. More than half of the ship's complement is attached to the gunnety department. The work is divided up among nine divisions, each of which has a specific sphere of responsibility. The first three divisions take care of the 8 inch rifles, which are the ship's power against surface targets. Almost 7000 pounds of steel can rain down on a target about fifteen miles away when the ship lets go with a nine gun salvo. Blowing up a bridge or sinking an enemy ship with the main battery demands the knowledge and skills of many men. The moving of shells and powder from magazines in the bowels of the ship to the guns requires both brain and brawn. This coupled with the loading speed of the crew determines the rate of fire. A proficient and trained crew means rapid destruction of the target. path 1 ,,.- ' .U , . 'N Z- -1 i 7, . fx . 'N M L XX x, .,,kkV jgifc 1 .

' NX Y l V Y 'xt .D XY. - 'N - xx L X X X situation changes drastically when anti-aircraft is the mission. Rate- of-fire becomes a matter of life-and-death for both ship and crew, and each mount becomes a scene of furious activity. Correctly placing the guns on an air target is exceedingly complex. A plane traveling at 500 knots is coming at you with a speed of nearly nine miles a minute. CIC and hte control radar must acquire such targets before they come into optical range. Extreme altitudes and violent maneuvers on the part of the air targets make the problem that much more difficult. The three-inch guns are the babies of the Rochester gun family. They have the highest rate of fire and are used almost entirely against air targets. These are the open mounts on the ship and are located in tubs along the sides of the ship. Rapid loading is again a factor in keeping the target under constant fire and reducing his chances to damage the ship. Many hours are spent by all AA gun crews in loading drill to gain just this speed. The three-inchers are manned and maintained by the sixth and seventh divisions, with the Marines manning two of the mounts during General Quarters or 1 AA. 'lihe guns are normally aimed hy personnel entirely different frc ' ' ' Y ' 1 V nn the turret crews, most of whom have no idea of the tarffet or O even which way the turret is trained. The guns are laid by fire control personnel who are spread throughout the ship, often many feet and several decks away from the turret. Sometimes it is done by optics and sonmetimes by radar. Nevertheless there are always many Qictors which determine the precise aiming of the barrel. Wiricl, shipls course and speed, the targetis course and speed, the age of the barrel, the temperature of the powder, the tendancy of the bullet to curve and many other factors enter into the proper solution in laying the gun. These problems are much simpler in the case of surface targets and shore bombardment areas than they are in the case of fast moving jet aircraft. The hve-inch mounts are the dual-purpose weapons of the ship and are used aginst both surface and air targets. The mounts are cared for and manned by the men of the fourth and fifth divisions. The activity goes on at much the same pace as in the turrets when surface targets are being engaged by the five inch battery but the The actual firing of the guns is only a small part of the job of the gunnery department. A mass of records must be maintained of parts, records, exercises and a myriad of other matters related to the upkeep, operation, and performance of the ship. XVhen not occupied with actual work on the guns, it is these same personnel who are responsible for most of the top-side painting and preservation so important in a man of war. Rigging of gear for refueling. provisioning. rearming, entering port, or any of the many other evolurions the ship may go through, involves gunnery department othcers and men. Training must be continuous to maintain each man and division as an ellicient lighting unit. No department must be so diversified in in fulfilling its missions as Gunnery whose realm ranges from the 30 caliber bullet of a landing force M-1 to the eight-inch shellg and also from the crane to anchor and all points in between. .-.--u.fm.-...a..v,,1- fr... vig 'I I' K ,aw LCDR.

The Marine guard is a colorful unit that plays an important part in all honors and ceremonies rendered to visiting Hag officers and other dignitaries on the quarterdeck of the Rochester. One of the distinctive units of the ship, the Marines have many functions to perform on board. As a result of the basic infantry specialty, which all sea-going Marines carry, they furnish a large Part of the ship's landing party as well as smaller armed groups for special purposes. The Marines also provide internal security for the ship with duties as sentries, corporals and sergeants-of-the-guard and orderlies for the Captain and Executive ollicer. Members of the detatchment also provide crews for two of the three inch mounts-31 and 30-10. Marine training is continued at all times to keep the men of the detachment proficient in infantry matters and also to enable them to compete with the rest of the Marine Units on promotion tests. Annually the Marines must requalify with their personal weapons. The normal individual weapons of a rifle company plus machine guns, mortars and rocket launchers are carried on board. All sailors, who must be armed as a sentry or messenger, are given instruction by the Marines in how to handle their weapons safely and lite them, if the need arises. S l I .

Administratively and logistically the Marines have their own little empire. Detachrnents are then independent of the ship in these matters and could easily be detatched from the ship for shore- hased operations-should should this be necessary. This supplies a neucleus for the administrative organization of the landing force also when it is deployed. Enlisted Marines are sent to a live-week course at a sea school located at one of the recruit depots. At these sea schools instruction is given in subjects such as naval customs and traditions, gunnery, honors and ceremonies, ship nomenclature and others. Men selected for sea-school have and excellent perasonal appearnce and a clear conduct record. The Commanding officer of Marine detachments has the prerogative of sending ashore any man who does not meet the required standards and to requisition a replacement from the nearest Marine activity anywhere in the world the ship happens to he. The two ofiicers assigned to the detachment are a captain and a first lieutenant. The administrative end of the detach- ment is in the hands of a HIHSECY-SCFQCHDK who also is the senior enlisted man ofthe detachment and the vital link in in the chain of command hetween ofiicers and enlisted men. Inspections keep the Marines always ready for their function as Honor Guards for distinguished guests.

OPIEIRAT ONS DEPARTMENT The Operations Department has many diverse responsibilities on board the Rochester. CIC, radio and visual communications, and electronics maintenance on all radar and radio, except for gunnery's fire control radar, are briefly the responsibilities of the men of the department. The Operations Officer is the assistant to the Commanding Ofhcer charged with the preparation of the schedule the ship will follow in carrying out orders from higher authority. All department heads cooperate in this matter but it is within the realm of operations that coordination of all desires with available services and facilities is carried out. Four divisions comprise the department and these are the OE, OI, OS, and OR divisions. Their general areas of responsibility within the department are broken down as follows: repair of radio and radar equipment, operation of the Combat Information Centerg the signal bridge, and the radio and teletype traffic handled by the communicators which is the Rochesteris only means of contact with the rest of the world while she is at sea. The Combat Information Center is the nerve center of the ship while in an exercise or actual combat situation. 74 i 5 3 ., Z , X Z 45' XX, 1 3 lnliormation is collected here from the various s0L11'CC5 availalwle and made availalile to the hritlge for command tleeisions and operational guidance and to other depart- ments of the ship as needed to assist in their portion of the team operation that is essential to a fighting ship of the line. During General Quarters this compartment in the heart of the ship fairly hursts with the Operations Officer and his assistants, gunnery liaison personnel, radar operators, plotters, and phone talkers. These are the members of the Hteaml' in action and the quality of their product-operations intelligence has much to do with the eventual outcome of the battle. .Ne- s. l'lDR. lil lfllili, lfll.

This division is one of the largest aboard the ship and is also responsible for the handling and stowage of all fuel oil fresh water. and MBV' division is charged with the maintenance of the main propulsion machinery and related machinery. T cc he E division provides the electrical power for ship since it has in its charge the generating and transmission facilities of the ship. E division men also maintain the ship's interior communications system and the ship,s gyros. In performing their duties personnel of this division are scar- tered all over the ship maintaining items such as the batteries in the ship's boats, the sound-powered phones of CIC, the projectors, and the gyro repeater on the bridge. A division provides the operators of the ship's steam heating systems, hydraulic machinery, refrigeration equipment, air conditioning systems, diesel engines, and many other types the movie of auxiliary machinery The fifth engineering division of the ship is the NR division. This division is responsible for another important mission of the department-damage control Dama e control - 8 amounts to doing everything possible to keep the ship afloat and to preserve watertight integrity before battle and during y varied skills battle. The R division has men with tnan among its members. Meralsmiths, pipefitters, carpenters, and damage controllmen are included an mainly as general builders and on those skills which P time of emergency. d in peacetime function repairmen keeping in practice can mean life or death to a shi in The engineers-dubbed snipes traditionally-in their myriad tasks provide the motive power to move the ship and the tremendous amount of electrical enrgy that is essential to keep all of the complex electronic devices operating.

The department is made up of four divisionsg S-I, S-2, S-3, and S-4. ln today's service, the emphasis on a detailed fiscal accounting system requires close control over all of the many items that are required in the normal operation of a large ship with a population about the size of a small village. In the realm of S-1 are the G. S. K. storerooms, electronics, and ordanance storerooms which are spread throughout the ship. Personnel from the supply and disbursing oHice are also found in this division. The S-2 division has the job of making the Rochester one of the best fed ship's in the fleet. The cooks, reefer men, bakers, and store-keepers of the division are among the hardest workers on the ship keeping long and unusual hours from early morning until late night to prepare the large quantity of food that it takes to feed the crew. This year has seen a lot of new improvements in our mess halls with four man tables, new tile decks, and an attractive color scheme to make meals as atttractive as possible. The Ship's Servicemen of the S-3 division are among the biggest morale builders aboard. An imposing list of the services furnished by this division includes: the barber shop, press shop, cobbler shop, tailor shop, ship's store, soda fountain, laundry, and small stores. The shipls store not only provides a place to purchase the small necessities of life but also, with the soda fountain and coke machines, the income that makes the ship's welfare and recreation program possible.

The department is headed by the Navigator, who is charged with guiding the ship safely from port to port and away from the dangers of the seas. Assisting him in these duties are an officer and the ship's quartermasters. The quater- masters keep all navigational ma- terials up to date and act as the right hand of OOD's on the bridge. The deck logs, winding of the ship's clocks, and supplying the buglers are all part of tasks of the depart- ment. Proper rendering of all required honors is yet another responsibility assigned to the Navi- gator. tfy y.... fu .if I Ist ROW 'L Yo RI' Pilcher JE Rimmer F D SuIIiv DEPARTMENT 'W 1 LCDR.

Beer, ER., Conover, H I., Hayes, Hl, g MEDHCAL AND ENTAIL, DEPARTMENTS A special feature is present in our sickbay and that is MYTR, the ship's radio station which is located in an old office space there. Staulfer, HN 2 shown at the turnable, is one of the mainstays of the radio station in addition to his duties as a corpsman. The Medical and Dental Departments are closely tied both professionally and in their physical location on board ship. The Rochester is fortunate in having highly skilled officers at the head of both departments. Assisting the doctors is a highly capable crew of trained men and strikers. The medical facilities on board the Rochester provide for almost every even- tualiry and have served us all well this cruise in safeguarding the health of the crew. I II LCDR.

All administrative matters pertaining to the ship's com- pany, officers and men, in general are handled by the Captain's oflice. All incoming and outgoing official mail passes through this office. The Personnel Office handles all of the administrative matters of the ship's enlisted men and also originates the plan of the day. a riff--ac' -1-n 1-i. li 2 f- 1 l A -r 4. 1: ' 5 ff Q 3 ig 6. E. .V K Tk. Divin eservices and moral guidance for the crew are the chief concerns of the Chaplain. The crew's lounge, library and a myriad of other projects fall at the Chaplain's door and few are turned aside. The Training Office does exactly what its name implies. Virtually all aspects of training and off-duty education conie within the realm of this office. The M. A. A. force acts as the ship's posse and also adiministers the lucky bag where reside all items of gear found adrift. The legal office handles a multitude of matters for the Rochester sailors. The Public Information Oflicer sees that news items concerning the ship and the members of her crew are made available to rll who might be interested. The doings of CA-124 reach the outside world largely through the efforts of this and like P.l.O. offices. 89 ...L , .-,. . f,,f. , W . .. Q 'B V SWF' Q.: I g , .
