1st. Division 1974 - 1975 U.S.S. INDEPENDENCE
"Let go the Port Anchor. . . . ." ". . . . Say What?"
"I said let go the Port Anchor. . . ." ". . . . Oh, let go the Port Anchor."
. . . a second passes and then the sound of
the "C" Note is heard over the 1 MC. . .
That's the conversation you would hear
between the Bridge and Foc'sle if you were
plugged into the JA sound powered phone
circuit during Sea and Anchor Detail. The
man on the Bridge passing the word to the
men of First Division to drop one of the
two 30 ton anchors as we pull into port.
Letting go and weighing anchor are main
tasks of First Division but they have other
responsibilities. Manning stations I and
IA for replenishment and refueling, and
handling the the equipment maintenance
and general upkeep of dozens of spaces
around the ship are just part of their overall
job. At sea and in port there are four hour
Bridge Watches with a Boatswain's Mate
of the Watch, Helmsman, Lee Helmsman,
Messenger and I JV phone talker on
duty from the Deck Department.
