OUTClflOPl That magical word was finally being realized as we pulled into GIBRALTAR on November 23, 1974. Not even the overcase day dampened our spirits. That Rock was our last port, the last chance to shop for that certain something that would represent six months, long watches, hard workg the Med. Some spent the days engaged In the traditional Anglo-American sporting contests: sailing, basketball, target pistol, and drinking. The Rock was explored, inside and out, by the majority of the crew.
