CAIRNS BOAT HARBOR WHERE THE BARRIER REEF DIVERS DEPART A STRALIA Being named after an Australian Prime Minister proved to be a great asset on the Holt's two port visits at Cairns and Darwin, Australia. Being the ship's first visit down under, this was the first chance that the U.S. had to show the people of Australia the ship named for their distinguished statesman of the mid-sixties. During open house and also out in town Holt crewmembers were greeted in a friendly and open manner, and many were invited into homes of families wishing to meet an American. The cheerful welcome that was extended to the crew of the Holt by the people of Cairns and Darwin will not be forgotten for many years.

S BIO BAY REP BLIO OF THE PHILLIPI E The Holt made two visits to Subic Bay, one of the U.S. Navy's major fleet repair bases overseas, in July and again in November as her final port of call before returning home. Subic Bay is noted for its fine rattan furniture and its wood carvings, which filled the helo hanger to the ceiling on the return trip to Pearl Harbor. The Subic Bay Naval Base offers many recreational activities, includ- ing golf, skeet shooting, archery rangs, go-cart track, swimming, and many excellent clubs. Visits to Manila and Bajiuo City, as well as night life in Olongapo City made Subic a port different than anywhere else in the Orient. 1-----. ?5'f2':'fri' ..-....,........ 4 4' , . 'Ap . H' .4 ,.
