Jorge Juan after arrival at ( artagena, Spain. Cpibf tie A falling glass and a drizzling rain marked the arrival of Jorge Juan at Cartagena. Only the Captain and seventeen of the Tigers remained on board as members of the Mobile Training Team. The passage from Barcelona to Cartagena was a strange one as passengers in our former ship. It was an odd excursion into a foreign world. It had its points, however, what with Carlos Primera brandy in the wardroom after dinner and wine by the bottle on sale to the crew in the ships store. Nevertheless, we moved oil the ship and into our hotel as soon as we tied up. The final conclave of the ex Tigers was held at the bar on the second deck of the Residencio Mediterraneo where most of us were staying. We had stuck together until the end and this was just about it. I remember Libby grinning in the corner while Guns rubbed his chin in quiet meditation. Pierce and Crowley were try- ing to converse against the blaring background of Flamenco music and the hiss of the Expresso Machine. Just before sinning oil for Madrid the Cap- tain dropped by wrestling with 2 valpacks, a bulging briefcase and his sword. Chairs scraped against the alien tile as he shook hands again with us all and said good-bye. We knew this was the last muster — somebod) (Orth, 1 believe ) ordered another round. There was nothing much else to say. 64
