Enewetak is a very small island, barely 2 miles long, located deep in the Pacific. Although small the island now holds a lot of big mem- ories for the crew ar, being our first quote: liberty port: unquote . 1 - f ■ .;- ' mm I v W ' My .:r P i Since space is limited the Denver crew was given an area a little larger than a ball diamond to hold their follies, a bar-b-que, some refreshments and a chance to get away from it all-way away from it all. Once at the picnic area a vast array of ' things to do ' was offered. One could eat, drink, play ball, walk along the beach, col- lect sea shells, get a sand crab drunk, count grains of sand, converse under a tree or walk around in circles. 18

L i y 1 Jt -y In all honesty, most of the crew enjoyed their stay on Enewetak, with its ' tro- pical blue waters, clear skies and snowy white beaches. After all, it was a break from the hum of everyday life on the ship. At days ' end the crew of merry liberty makers packed up their day ' s catch of sea-shells, hopped on the bus and made their way back to the liberty launch. After the necessary repairs to the island ' s craft were completed, the USS Denver ventured onward. All was not fun and ex- citement for the Denver crew however, while some played the others worked around the clock repairing local vessels in the area. For their contribution the Denver was awarded the HUMANITARIAN AWARDS MEDAL. -■: 19
