But to local businesses it means money. According to Bunbury Tourism Board general manager Robin Fcncch. the average person visiting Bunbury on business spent S80 a day. Multiply that by five days, the average stay of a Navy ship, and 80(), the number of men aboard The USS Cleveland which docked this Tuesday and that equals more than S320.()OO spent in Bunbury this week. If this year is similar to last year and four navy ships of similar size dock in Bunbur) ' . it could mean more than SI .2 million dollars for the local economy. Ms Fcncch said these were conservative tigurcs because taking into account the nature of the sailor ' s visit, they would probably spend much more than the average business person. Ms Fencch said businesses should extend opening hours and plan special meals to better prepare for the sailors. Wombat Lodge manageress Lisa Lamonaca said thev stocked up on T-shirts, sweat shirts, stuffed toys, boomerangs and postcards in preparation for the sailors. Lighthouse Beach Resort worker Lee Baldwin said they booked out totally when the last ship came in and this time a big block was reserved for the sailors before their arrival Tuesday. Pizza Hut manager Maria Ranicri said pizza deliveries significantly increased while the sailors were in town. Americans sure love their pcppcroni pizza, she said Also among the mo.st frequently visited establishments the Golden Earring Tattoo Studio and The Reef Hotel reported a significant jncrcasc in trading. 176 177 BUNBURY ij THK US Navy is in town this week. The American ship ISS Cleveland with m  re than 400 sailors on board has docked in Hunbury for five days. J THE Bunbury Mail took to the streets to Tind out what local thoughts are on this and whether it was };(M)d for the City of Bunbury. ' Every time ihey come to Icnvn Ihcy attract ihe girls. They know (he women like guys in uni- form. ' They don ' t cause us any trouble apart from attract- ing the Bunbury chicks. I don ' t mind them com- ing here as long as they keep opening up the Reef and offer free drinks. The sailors bring in the money just because there are so many of them and they are lookmc for some night- life. It is good for Ihe town and good for hiisinn s 178 I suppose i( brings more people and more money into the community. It de- pends on how long they have been at sea and cooped up. I ' ve been to the hotels and some of those sailors let loose for a while which is a bit of a worry. They seem happy to spend their money though so I guess fs added income for businesses. It puis money into Ihc town One of ihe last sail- ors here lold us he spent S5l)0 a day in Bunbury and they stayed three days. I suppose it builds good relationships between Australians and Ameri- cans. It ' s good public rc- ations. You meet them in the street, ihcy are nice and polite and say hello, and ask about the girls. 179 SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA The citizens of Sydney, Australia welcome the USS CLEVELAND and USS ESSEX with banners and Old Glon- flying Mgh on vanous street signs. Sydney most prize and possession- The World Famous Opera House- highlighted by the last glow of the setting sun. 180 View from Sheraton hotel. Set on a senes of low hills and sandstone headlands, Sydney is surrounded by its spectacularly beautiful harbor, with its downtown towers soanng above the neat bungalows clustered along the water ' s edge. S dney is undoubtedly one of the world ' s most attracti ' e cities.

I know the wait has been difficuh for many, but it is my supreme hope that the quality of this book will be worth the extra months it took to produce it. The work and sacrifice that have gone into this book will never be known. I appreciate all the support I received fi ' om the Cruise book advisor Ltjg. Aspenson. Also I am grateful to Ltjg Henderson for allowing me time away fi ' om my normal work to concentrate my efforts on the book. The Commanding Officer, for giving me a lot of freedom to be creative. SN Sabo helped me immensely by taking over the Print Office in my absence Special Thanks goes to Ltjg Bourque and CW03 Allen for all the money received from MWR department. I Suppose I could go on forever naming all those who helped, but no one could match the help, support, or understandinj of my wife, because of her patienc ' in dealing with not receiving too many letters from me, she truly is a gift from God. 188
