lishugbu HEADQUARTERS : QAM FIRST NAVAL DISTRICT , E N f . ' I g l NAVY BUILDING m REPLY REFER ro: 9, E Huff j 495 SUMMER STREET. aos'roN 1o. MASS- l l f i! 17 June 1963 Mr. Allan L. Thomas News Editor WHMS Radio l5 Su mer St. New London, Conn. Dear Mr. Thomas: This will confirm our telephone conversation of last week. Some months ago, as a result of a number of requests from media representatives, the Com andant of the First Naval District requested the Commander in Chief, U.S. Atlantic Fleet, and the Chief of Naval Operations to provide a one-day media cruise on board a Polaris sub- marine out of New England. The Commandant was particularly interested' in such a cruise because of the number of Polaris submarines being built in New England CPortsmouth, N.H. and New London, Conn.Q. For this reason, as well as because of the increasingly important role Polaris submarines are playing in our national defense and as the greatest single deterrent force for the free world, it was considered most appro- priate that New England media executives be given an opportunity to be- come better acquainted with Polaris submarines and their operations. As I indicated, we have received tentative approval for this cruise at sea on July l, l963 in the Navy's newest Polaris submarine, the Fleet Ballistic Missile Submarine USS ALEXANDER HAMILTON CSSBCND- 6177. This submarine was built by the Electric Boat Division of General Dynamics Corporation at that company's shipyard in Groton, Conn., and is scheduled to be com issioned on June 27, 1963. In accordance with your desires, I have submitted your name to the Chief of Naval Operations in Washington, D.C., and I hope to hear from that office in the near future.' As soon as I receive Qgrd that the cruise schedule is firm and that all of the necessary clearances have been obtained, I shall notify you by telephone, furnish you with all of the pertinent information on the cruise and forward you author- ization orders. we are very pleased that you plan to join us in the ALEXANDER HAMILTON, and, shall be looking forward to seeing you on board. Sincerely yours, GEORGE M. HALL Com ander, U.S, Navy Public Information Officer
