,wrt mafw ...Piece De Resistance... Port Mahon was our last, and perhaps favor- ite, Mediterranean liberty port. There is good reason for the esteem in which this port is held. Admiral FARR!-XGUT'sfather was born here, and the common name evokes common ties. The people on this small Balearic Island evidently enjoyed our visit as much as we did, if enjoy- ment can be iudged by the hundreds ot Menorcans who came aboard FARRAGUT during two days of general visiting.

February 20 brought FARRAGUT back to the sheltered Pollensa Bay, Mallorca, where the Sixth Fleet tour at duty had started some six and a half months earlier. Waiting for us were our reliefs, including literally some of the largest and most modern ships in the world. But despite their size and impressive credentials, they all seemed to show a slight trace of green to our already sea- soned eyes. FARRAGUT took part in a fourway, ioint relief along with her sister ship USS Luce CDLG-73 relieving USS Dahlgren CDLG-l2l and USS Bainbridge CDLGN-251. At l645 the word was passed, There will be a ship leaving for Mayport in l5 minutes. At l7OO the ship was underway, and with the sounds of Billy Rose's The Strip- per , blaring from the topside address speakers, we left Pollensa Bay in our wake. r x 'll l USS Luce tries to sneak out of Pollensa Loaded for home The big E reporging for duty Bay under u smoke screen fZlI'l10lf'6'l' only 4,000 miles to go ls, cg , Aly Skeet shooting helps pass the fime homeward on
