To each one of you who participated in the NATO Exercise and the Mediterranean deployment there must come great satisfaction in knowing that your ship with her iet age Air Group came through her strenuous and long test in a manner which has brought credit and honor to her illustrious name, our Navy and country. To our families, sweethearts and friends who will scan the pages of our doings, l am sure there will strongly arise a feeling of pride in your accomplish- ments, and in your dedication to-the preservation of the Christian ideals for which our country forever stands. For all, there stands out in these pages the reassurance of security that our presence in distant seas and shores brings to our foreign friends and allies in the cause of freedom and iustice in a historic period of intense international tension. Having been called upon to demonstrate our instant readiness and full potential in support ot the United States military assistance rendered on request to the troubled country of Lebanon, the Super Sara with her Air Group offered striking and visible proof of her modern effectiveness and purpose. lam sure you will agree with me that it has been a privilege and a stimulating experience, as well as a lot of fun and pleasure, to have been a key element in the famous Second and Sixth Fleet teams of the world's greatest Navy as they perform their mission of assisting in the maintenance of world peace.

Eisenhower, embarked in SARATOGA, witnessed a fleet exercise displaying the might of naval sea and air power. On the evening of 7 June in Washington, he opened a speech with the follow- ing words: Just a few hours ago, l stepped ashore from an American warship-one of the mightiest that this world knows: the aircraft carrier SARATOGA. During my two days aboard that vessel, living with her officers and men, l was impressed over by the skill, patriotism, and selfless devotion of Americans serving in our Armed Forces. Their dedication to duty reminded me again of that wonderful observation by General Robert E. Lee. He said: 'We cannot do more than our duty: we would not wish to do less'. wg - tv Ks 'Ir-T ., lt ,Q c 5 0.

T Fighter Squadron THIRTX-ONE's primary purpose on the SARATOGA is I0 maintain all-weather air superiority when and where desired. To do this her F3H-2N Demon high performance iet fighters operated many times around-the-clock Gnd made over one-third of their cruise landing at night. A CCA approach was the rule rather than the exception. . The Demon's fire control system, used with airborne radar and trained Ptlols' is designed to search out, automatically track, and destroy an enemy aircraft undef low visibility conditions. A varied selection of weapons such as multiple types of bombs an F05 deadly Sidewinder missiles, and four rapid firing 20mm cannon give the Tom- catters the most versatile iet aircraft in the fleet today. This is particularly true for close air support missions. With its long range the F3H's were called upon to e5corI bombers or photo planes and provide fighter protection. Long condition watches, where the VF-3l pilots sat in their aircraft poised for instant catapult launching to seek out bogies assigned by the i'Sar0'S CIC- were another common assignment. All these varied missions and the Demon's complicated avionics, powef Plum' and airframe systems required an expert maintenance crew working as a team I9 PFOCIUCC The feqtllfed performance.

ZIMTBAUM Fighter Squadron THIRTY-TWO's history dates back to World War Il when it was originally formed as VBF-3, a part of Carrier Air Group THREE. The new squadron saw action in operations supportingnlhe reoccupation of the Philippines and the marine landings on Iwo Jima. Officially designated as VF-32 in I9-'17 the squadron again flew combat in Korea where it flew strikes against Wonsan Harbor, PUCIC' chong, Choniin and many other hot spots. After the Korean tour VF-32 was introduced to the iet-age in aviation when it was assigned the F9F-6 Cougar. The squadron was the first fleet swept wing Squad' ron and they made an around the world cruise on the USS TARAWA, demonstrating this new fighter in the far corners of the globe- The iet age created the need for a high performance interCePlP group and, when Chance-Vought developed the new supersonic F8U-I, VF-32 became the first operational squadron to operate thls new iet. I Fulfilling the squadron's mission of day and night interception 'S easy for the pilots of VF-32. The high performance of the FSU mtlkes it possible for a plane to leave the catapult on the SARA'S deck and climb to 40,000 feet in under four minutes, then fly in excess of 1,000 miles per hour to intercept and destroy enemy aircraft with Qunsf. rockets and missiles. Their inflight refueling capability makes it POS' sible for them to prowl far beyond the normal iet range in search of enemy targets. m,,,n-ai-iff mg -If 2.

The primary mission of this group is day andfor night weather attack, in ad- dition tothe all-important mission of path- finding. ln addition, the ADSN flown by this detachment has other capabilities such as special weapons, electronic counter- measures, and radar iamming.

WALTERS As a result of the experience gained during World War ll and the Korean War, it has become apparent that the information collected through aerial recon- naissance is of paramount importance, both tactically and strategically, to every command in any conflict, large or small. ln order to have access to the intelligence information available from aerial photographs, the Navy commissioned squadrons with aircraft specifically equipped and configured for accomplishment of the primary mission of aerial photography. Today every attack carrier found in a Navy striking force carries a small detachment of men and aircraft from one of the two existing fighter-photographic squadrons. A detachment, such as Light Photographic Squadron SIXTY-TWO, Detachment 43 aboard the SARATOGA, is the eyes of the fleet, and its pilots man the aircraft which are armed with cameras rather than guns.

They first came aboard in May and again in July of 1957 for CARQUALS. During the Presidential Cruise in June 1957 two of the squadron Skywarriors crossed the continent from the USS Bonne Homme Richard in the Pacific to land aboard the Super Sara in the Atlantic 4 hours and 1 minute later. This was the first such non-refueled flight in history. In August 1957 VAH-9 embarked once more on the Saratoga for Operation Strikeback. Flying the 35 ton Douglas Skywarrior on the 1958 Mediterranean Cruise the mission of Heavy Attack Squadron Nine was to provide long range, all weather, nuclear strike capabilities for the U. S. Sixth Fleet. The normal flight crew consisted of a second tour aircraft commander, a bombardierfnavigator, and a radar gunner. These crews were backed by an outstanding maintenance and support group. ln March 1958 VAH-9 shattered the existing record of hours flown by a carrier based Heavy Attack Squadron by more than 100 hours, then two months later they broke their own record. Ranging the length and breadth of the Mediterranean during the cruise, the high flying Owls of Nine personified their motto Facta Non Verba, or Deeds Not Words. Q D L, 2 r 3- A VAH n ff 1.
