In the Fall of 1977 the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk left San Diego for the Western Pacific.
I was a 21 year old Second Class Petty Officer going on my first overseas cruise.

Friday 11 Nov. 1977

"Another mail call tonight, no mail. Well, another crummy day. We had GQ this morning after the UNREP with the Sacramento.

The whole routine in this shop is a bunch of BULLSHIT. I don't know why I gotta stick around here til Tuesday.

Crossed another time zone at 18:00, we set our clocks back an hour to conform to Time Zone K(-10)."
