When the story is told, it is always the story of the ship. The men seem to get lost in the overall picture. For this reason, this book is dedicated to the men who sailed with us. This is our story . . .

Ile was one ofthe founders of the Xmerieaa lfederation of labor and served nearly half a century .is the official head ofthe Xmerican labor movement llis life was keyed to a fervent belief in trade union ideals emphasizing individualisni, freedom, and democracy. Samuel L. Clompers was born in london in 1511. was early apprenticed to a ciear maker. and then immigrated to Slew York in 11463. One year later at the age of 1-1. he became associated with the labor movement. lle helped organize and become President ot the CiQarntaker's International 1 nion which became a model for others to follow. In 1881. came the next step. the Federation ot Organiyed Trades and Labor L nions of Limited States and Canada. As chairman of the committee. he worked out the final plan for that organization which later was reorganized as the American Federation of Labor in 1886. Gompers was elected president and served in that capacity for more than four decades as the official head of the American labor movement. Before the American Federation of Labor was founded in lvl. the labor movement was in the hands of coinparativcljt small individual tinions throughout the various states. all working without much cooperation. 1 pon formation of the lederation, tiompers took the helm .is its president and welded the labor movement into a compact unit which has grown to be a power in the political. commercial. and industrial life of the country, tiompers believed in America and taught patriotism to all his followers, llc kept labor on a conservative field and free from radicalism by his leadership. A fearless exponent of right and a great humanitarian. he was also a great fighter. llc fought for peace in industry and blazed a trail for others to follow. llis work for nearly' half a century was dedicated to advanced the lot of men and women of labor. lt was his firm conviction that labor could never displace management of industry' that made it possible for him to enter into successful negotiations with industry. These were the noble principles which typified the aim of the life of Samuel Gompers. His life was a tribute to the contribution ofthe foreignborn of this country. He never forgot the American Flag and the ideals and traditions for which it stands. throughout his busy life. .y '. . fi 4 ii' Y The huge destroyer tender slipped sideways from the pier, so slowly iv-was had look twice to be sure she was moving. She iiieiftgii ew slowly, yet she was gone so quickly. at-flamed, the men of SAMUEL ooMPERs and the 'mit-:iz the-. were leaving behind. They had talked of t..err.'tliarsefand of nothing, of all the silly little things that .fragile talk about at times like this. Still, so much was left tmsgiitl. The women and children waved, and the men, lined along the rail on the port side of the tender, waved back. Long after the men were only a blur, the people on the shore kept waving, just in case. From fifty states the men had come.. .young men leaving home for perhaps the first time and veterans, all trained to do their jobsg from cooking meals to operating the most complex electronic equipment, from repairing a leaky faucet to performing major surgery. Amid weeping and waving arms, smiles and faces down with the anticipation of the long months of separation ahead, this community of 12-hundred men has separated from the mainland, moving out upon the oceans that make islands of all our continents. lt's the seventh time she has pulled away in this manner. For some, it is the first cruise aboard her, for others the fourth, but it doesn't get easier with practice, and six months is a long time. lt's hard, they say, But we can hack it.

He is the Commanding Ofliccr llc is the ship! This is the most diflicult and demanding assignment in the Navy. There is not an instant during his tour as Commanding Oflicer that he can escape the grasp of command responsibility.

After two thousand miles of ttery solitude the vision was a welcome one. As we proached, the imposing promonotory of Diamond cad rose up out of the ocean. its rugged front softened the hazy distance, and presently the details of the td began to make themselves manifest: first the line of .tchl then the plumed coconut trees of the tropics .. . ,gn the white town 0 Honolulu ... ,wo wrote Mark Twain, arriving at the Islands in l866. x as most visitors do, fell in love at first sight. The inds, tips of mighty volcanos rising nearly three miles In the ocean floor, lie like so many emeralds on blue vet, Overall, they resemble nothing so much as a travel brochure come to life: palms swaying in the evening breezes. miles of white sand, burning blue skies, Hawaii is in the tropical latitudes. but trade winds keep the Islands cool most ofthe year. Only high on the tops of the mountains does the temperature ever drop below the comfort 7one. One of the chief attractions. after the Islands themselves, is the variety of interesting foods produced by a comparable mixing of cultures. Mahimahi, laulaus, and poi are some ofthe specifically Hawaiian foods, but Cantonese, Mandarin, Japanese, and Filipino cuisine accompany the more familiar Mexican, European, and American fare. Ethnic festivals and cultural centers provide the visitor with intriguing glimpses of far-off times and customs. '52 2. J, firm 1,2 - ,pw-xv 1, v- G x., loha I Q.. A-JI ,X I ' VJ I , 6 4- fi' 4 if 3?

These were just a few of the enthusiastic comments by some of the Tigers who had the opportunity to sail with Samuel Gompers from Pearl Harbor to San Diego.

As the crew mustered along the rails the Coronado Bridge took on a familar sight. While Fat Sam steamed under the bridge, caps could be seen soaring from around the ship. For many this would be their last time crossing under the Coronado Bridge. On the pier, relatives, friends, wives, parents, and children waved and cheered as the lines went over and the gangplanks were set. Loved ones swarmed the gangway to the welcoming embraces of kith and kin. For a while, the ship was a happy, chaotic party. It was very, very good to be home at last. , V' wyf i..E K V j x'-L Li F A ..,.. 1, . ? , y, i i .,,. y , ,g I V, . N M J ,,5,,,,, ,,,,.,,,, Q r 5 .Q ,, I V I ip.- -ir I P-ug -5--a.A..,L li 1 59 .
