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.

Saturday 10 Dec. 1977

"I took Bob Daniels' duty in OE Div. today. He stood mine in Hawaii, so I was obligated. I guess it's just as well. He didn't have any watches, so I stayed in the shop all day. HS-8 is flying helo's back and forth between the Army compound and the ship all weekend, so we have to cover it on PLAT. They stop around 17:00."
