My Apologies
To those who have sent
their names and additional
information, that I have
not yet added.

This project has become
very large and though I
work on it almost every
day, it is impossible
for me to keep up.

I will continue to add the
names and information as
quickly as I can.

Thank You All
For Your Support

". . . Chief do we have an unscrambler?
This message is screwed up and it's from us. "

The men of CR Division are responsible for handling
an average of 1200 messages a day, and sometimes
as many as 2000! The are responsible for the
transmission and reception of all electrical
communications. In addition the message
processing center serves as a relay station to
smaller ships in company with INDY. Their
procedures include circuit operation, internal
and external routing of messages, and reproduction
of messages for over the counter delivery.

Charles Swoboda YN3 Apr 1978 - Apr 1980			I had a wonderful time with a great group of guys in my division. Overall, I found the morale to be extremely high which was due to Captain Watson always setting a positive tone for the crew and always letting us know what was going on, and what would be going on in the very near future.
Mike Waddell RM3 Jul 1977 - Sep 1980			*
Keith Waye RM3 Jan 1979 - Jun 1981			While at the time, the cruises were long and felt like they would never end. Being older and wiser I would love to go on one more Med cruise.
