On February 26th CONCORD tried to enter Valencia, Spain but high winds and dangerous seas kept us anchored out until we were forced to get underway and back out to safety. We did return there on the 7th and 8th of March to pick up fresh fruits and vegetables, but the visit W .lb tdi too short tu dlluw ail tlie ciew to bee I his unique city. On the 18th thru 20th of February and again on the 12th of April, CONCORD was in Naples, for FFV. However, not much sight-seeing could be squeezed in, which was too bad because to all SIXTH Fleet sailors, this remains our home away from home. Remember the morning of 14 March when we were suddenly awakened and told we were not going to be pulling in to Palermo, Sicily until the money was found? And yet within a matter of hours we did go starboard side to. Many of the crew enjoyed a tour of the city during this short visit. Upon leaving Marseille on 5 April, we steamed directly for Toulon, France and once again picked up cargo and FFV. The next morning CONCORD was underway again to complete her last replenishment cycle. In addition to the liberty ports, CONCORD and crew visited interesting ports for replenishment of units from the SIXTH Fleet: Gaeta, Italy and La Maddalena, Corsica; the Straits of Messina and Bonnofacio were all places not to be forgotten. «:|BP f»k T oAk, ' UA

Just like S-l handles the paper work for the Supply Department, S-2 division actually handles the supplies. This is what CONCORD is all about, the receipt, storage, and is sue of all those 26,000 items, ranging from toothpicks to valves. A propensity towards dodging forktrucks, humping paint cans, eighteen hour days, and frostbite, is all it takes to be a storekeeper on board CONCORD. But if you ' re really serious about being a storekeeper, you must learn to like cleaning under deck grates, working 24-hour days, or supply officers. ..otherwise forget it! Kidding aside, this is a division of hard-working professionals who take pride in their rating; and without them, CONCORD could not fulfill it ' s mission. 11 SKI David SK3 Morclle llJL SK3 Rogers SK2 Santos SK3 .Shafcr SK2 Schultz SK2 Wakefield SKSA Fulls SKSA Lukacs SR OGara SN Wayne SKSA Williams
