clNEMo TEQTBO PINT P. J ' 7U At 0900 the morning of 23 July we anchored in Naples Harbor for the lost port of call in our Med deployment. This, the third largest city in Italy, occupies one of the most magnificent sites in all of the Mediterranean, and the area offers much of histor- icol interest. Nearby are Pompeii, Mount Vesuvius, Salerno and the storied Isle of Capri . Rome is easily accessible by train. The city itself is large and offers much in the way of entertainment and elegant goods; in particular, cameos and gloves. Also the location of the Head- quarters for the Allied Forces in Southern Europe, an excellent exchange was available where many attractive purchases could be m ade. On 27 July we were underway once more, this time outchop and the commencement of our much heralded Operation Sea Orbit. STREET VENDOR IN NAPLES
