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.

Tuesday 13 Dec. 1977

"We pulled out of Pusan today and went back on shifts. I find it very hard to sleep in the compartment during the day, there's too much noise and everyone keeps turning on the lights.

Everything is just about same-same. No mail, probably won't have a mail call 'til the 18th because they're flying on jet engines and don't have room for incoming mail."
