INTRODUCTORY Places and events of the past tend to lose their outline in time and become enwrapped in a sentimental aura of unreality. In an effort to recapture by the magic of the camera the true form and spirit of the recent operations of the U.S.S. CURRITUCK, we have compiled this pictorial record— CRUISE BOOK, 1951-1953. Since her recommissioning in August 1951, the U.S.S. CURRITUCK has accom- plished a great deal. She carried the stars and stripes and a small cross-section of America across several seas and established in every port she visited a feeling of good will. But her greatest accomplishment, as the only large sea-plane tender in the Atlantic Fleet, has been the successful training of hundreds of Naval personnel in the fine art and science of seaplane tender operations. From her decks have gone to the civilian reserve and to other Naval activities a host of men well equipped to man several tenders of the CURRITUCK class in case of war. During the past two and one-half years we have shared many experiences — we have worked hard, at times we have been discouraged, but more often we have felt pride of accomplishment as we have reached our goals, one by one. In addition, we have seen interesting places and done interesting things which we will never forget. If this book can enable the reader to recall more clearly an experience or a friendship made on the CURRITUCK, it will have justified its existence.
