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.

Wednesday 9 Nov. 1977

"I got the word today that I will be transferred to PLAT/LENS sometime next week. I guess that OE will get the first 3 TV techs to come aboard.

We crossed to -11 Lima Time Zone and set the clock back 1 hour at 18:00. We're riding the edge of a typhoon. That's why no mail's gone off and none has come on board. Hope we get mail tomorrow!"
