MARINE DETACHMENT Since Presley O ' Bannon and the Shores of Tripoli, ' the Mediterranean has often seen U. S. Marines, but we doubt if it has ever seen a better looking, more smartly drilled outfit than the forty men of the BALTIMORE ' S Marine Detach- ment. Hand-picked for sea duty and ham- mered into shape by Capt. Martin, Lt. Herrin, and T Sgt. Ski Rosaschi, the Marines perform duties aboard the BALTIMORE as Captain ' s and Exec ' s or- derlies, and Sergeants and Corporals of the Guard. As the Honor Guard, they are the first unit to be seen by visiting digni- taries and are resplendent in their white- blue-white - provided, of course, that they have had two minutes warning. Acknowledged by all as one of the best gun crews aboard, they claim credit for more drones and sleeves than all other mounts. ' ' That ' s the way to shoot ' is the usual comment after every firing exercise. Though part of their duties includes running the ship ' s brig, oflf-duty hours are usually spent in affairs of a much brighter vein. Brinkley, McGowan, Van Kirk, and Whalebelly Luce can be especially counted upon to liven up the scene with their unusual awhs and tales of woe. Proud of their Marine Detachment, all can truthfully say : Best jarheads in the Med.
