In admiration for the American people, Francis C. Hamilton of Southampton, England, presented to the USS AMPHION AR-I3 one of his most prized possessions -- a silver cigarette case. While serving with the Scotish 52nd Regiment during World War ll, Dr. Francis C. Hamilton Re- ceived this cigarette case from the men for humanitarian deeds. During the war Dr. Hamilton and his wife received comforting aid from the American servicemen. In graditude for these services rendered to him he presented the silver cigarette case to the Amphion on October I968. The in- scription reads as follows: DEAR SIRS, WITH THE PERMISSION OF YOUR CAPTAIN PLEASE EXCEPT THIS TOKEN FOR YOUR WARDROOM.

FN MISSION and HISTORY Of the AMPHION .fx L.f The AMPHION' is a repair ship of 14,000 tons, whose primary mission is to render repair and logistic services to ships of the fleet. Nearly eight hunderd officers and men, possessing a Wide variety of skills, are assigned to fulfill this mission. The AMPHION has specially designed and equipped shops to render all types of repairs to ships ex- cept those requiring drydocking. Our National Security requires a strong sea power that can be deployed anywhere at any time and remain on station for extended periods. Our "customers" are often located far removed from shipyards and where repairs can only be accomplished by repair ships. Because AMPHION is such a ship, she can accompany our fleet and maintain our ships in readiness on all frontiers. The AMPHION is dedicated to this most vital SERVICE TO THE FLEET. The AMPHION was constructed by Tampa Ship- building Company at Tampa, Florida and placed in com- mission on 30 January 1946. Since commissioning, AMPHION has provided repair, and logistic service to the Atlantic and Mediterranean Fleets. A ffl fC? fx I .P ' 123 fi .f ,- f... kr" ,-I -"wx .g.fz1i:fQ34 . kv.

Aside from taking asprins and drinking a lot of coffee it de- pends on the imagination and determination of the one's selected. When word leaked out the Amphion was leaving her lair in Norfolk for the first time in any old salts memory something had to be done to el b t th was decided. c e ra e e memorable occasion. A cruise and year book The two ship's photographers started things moving. Besides taking pictures, the complete or- ganization of the book was their responsibility. The ship's lithographers were called in to do the printing. To help the printers, the drafting office was asked to do the headings, etc. A corpman rounded up names and did some typing. The result is what you have just seen. lt's far from spectacular but it's a book WE did a- bout OUR ship. We're proud of it and sincerely hope you share our enthusiasism.
