Seems like we departed the ship from the stern or starboard side. But, tje shadows.
True. We usually used the fantail & the officers used deck house one at the QD. There was one starboard aft also. We had four I think but the port side very seldom used but it was there. We had to use it once maybe in Yugoslavia.

At anchor on the Independece (CV-62) our enlisted departed from the fantail and officers from Sponson 8.
Sponson 8 was also from where we threw the ship's trash into the ocean—which kind of gave we who knew some of the more worthless officers on board a little chuckle.
