AUGUSTA, SIEILY Most of our impressions of Augusta are best left unsaid. Members of our crew salvaged something from the visit by taking tours to Syracuse, site of an ancient civilization, and Catania, a city periodically menaced in the past by eruptions of Mt. Aetna. Many consider Catania to be the prettiest city on Sicily. Two of our Boatswains Mates, Varca and Vilardi, were able to visit relatives during our stay here. Memories of our stop here are sure to recall the periodic battles with bumboats and one evening when the UDT boys gave our OOD Lt.fjgJ Bob Fuller quite a thrill by capturing our quarterdeck unopposed. xx X 'N Y X .. xwax N X XXX
