The word that the ship was to receive a new skipper came while BLAIR lay alongside the pier at U.S. Naval Shipyard, Philadelphia. This was looked forward to with mixed emotions by Captain Charles L. Nagle, BLAIR's Commanding Officer. He was glad to be relieved after a command tour of more than two years, for the grasp of command responsibility is relentless, but at the same time he deeply regretted leaving the ship and her crew. The crew regretted losing Captain Nagle and Qas crews generally arej were somewhat skeptical of the new Captain. A farewell party was held for Cap-tain Nagle just before the prospective new Commanding Officer ar- rived onboard at which time the tedious and pr0- tracted details of relief would begin. Most un- fortunately after all the details were completed on the evening before the date scheduled for the relief ceremony Captain Nagle received serious juries in an auto accident requiring indefllilfe hospitalization and the Executive Officer was T6- quired to temporarily assume command.
