STG3 YODER, Charles D. RM2 POSTSCRIPT Finished! Its well after midnight, this night in June, but I am finally through. I am surrounded by papers, pens, Ph0l0graphs, and a general disarray, but I must add a few more sentences to all the copy I have written. Pardon me if I ramble. The Med and all that happened is very vivid in my mind, caught up in the memories as I am. BCBllnc.l started out as fourteen individuals, including those that helped raise money. Now it is only one. The publication ofthe cruise book is late, having encountered delays in the printing of the photographs and various other areas of publication, such as layouts, cropping pictures, and writing copy. You only get what your willing to work for, and I at least, wanted a good book, no matter how long it took. My apologies to the Airdales, especially Lt Buzzell. They were not here to help, so the delay is most unfair to them. Brian was an effective prod in the Mid, misunderstood at times, but one who got the ball rolling. My sincere apologies to BRW, who patiently waited with much more serious matters while the cruise book filled every spare moment. My thanks to Greg Nygard who is a most helpful pubIisher's rep. I If But, here it is, the deployment BLAKELY made to the Mediterranean. This book is not intended to g on y, b t to serve as a history, a remembrance. I hope this book brings back those memories, the good and the bad, th! way it was. To all who read it, I hope you understand, and enjoy lt. If BLAKELY CRUISE BOOK, Incorporated
