A,

Ed Jones, the designated and registered captain of this vessel

and I spent at least two hours discussing his problems with Mr, Otterman,

He

stated he had "never. seen a shipboard operation like this one ,., the crew is
confused about who is running the ship".

He was registered in Honolulu as the

captain and he stated that C.0. did not have master's papers -~ and was using

his (Ed Jones).

The Captain was used as a deck hand - and frequently addressed

in an insulting manner by ©.0, in my presence,

On February 19, 1979, I heard

he was ready to leave the ship and ask for a job with Global,

In addition, I

understand one other crew member is about to leave,
B,

After an altercation between H.B., C.0., and myself - C.0, per-

sonally served breakfast to the medical group - very unctuously,

The cook

apologized to me after breakfast for C.0.'s actions, stating C.O. was acting
“childish” - I agreed,

LV,

un »eoruary Lé, 4979, YJONN and HUN WLCOLOLl told me tne “crew”

was getting “bead vibes" from the people of Utirik regarding their treatment
at sick call,

I investigated further and discovered that it was C.0. who had

passed this information on to the Niccloffs,

He stated the medical team was

getting some “bad public relations” ashore from Bill Grant's acticns at sick
eall,

I then called H.B. and C,0, together and told them that if they hac any

such comments to make regarding the opinions of the people towerd the medical
group ~ that they were to speak to me directly - not to our consultants first,

H.B. stated at this time he could give me a written statement that Grant was
taking gin ashore to sick call,
D,

At Utirik the unloading cf a large quantity of food gifts stored

in nold #2 - the medical berthing area - was hand carried by the medical team

(ineluding most of the doctors) - while the ship’s crew watched,
