Shift Colors! This Cruisebook is the combined effort of many individual members of the crew of USS TRUETT both during and after the Mediterranean-Middle East Deployment of 1977-78. When the deployment first began, even as the ship sailed east past Cheasapeake Light, plans were being formed by some 17 volunteers as to how best record the sights and events of the ship's first operational experience with the United States Sixth Fleet. As the deployment progressed it became obvious that the rapidly changing pace and schedule of ship operations would require many changes in the book's format before it would be printed. During portions of the special operations the ship was assigned, mail delivery and off load was severely delayed, essentially cutting the staff's only means of getting pictures developed and printed. When film ran out while in the Red Sea, special arrangements had to be made with the American Embassy in Djibouti to get additional rolls. The price of 35mm black and white film in Djibouti was 32.00 a roll The crew in general supported the book without ever seeing it by buying almost 200 copies even while giving money to such other worthy causes as Navy Relief. The final and greatest support given was in waiting a few more months than expected before receiving the book due to a staff essentially dissolved by transfers, leave, work loads and preps for COMPUTEX, INSUFIV, and overhaul. In advertising for sales of the Cruisebook, the pun was made that without help it would not be a Crew's Book. Well, this is a crew's book. And it is dedicated, not to one man, but to every crew member that helped TRUETT bring home a reputation that other ship's can only hope to match.
