SCPO Morris Ramsey - Everything I could see on the Pier and in Olongapo was Flat. The Crane couldn't move to Remove the Gangway to the Quarterdeck. We Tied it to the Pier and Pulled Out from Under it to Take Out the First Set of Dependents from Clark AFB. When we Returned for the 2nd Group of Dependents to Transport to Cebu the Crane was able to Bring a Gangway to Us and Remove It. It was Truly Something Out of a Disaster Movie. I do Love Documentaries about Volcanoes but I Never Again want to be within 16 Miles of Something Like That! Nightmare Material that I'm sure is Still Burned into the Back of My Brain.
