Underway again on New Year ' s Eve, GEORGETOWN headed through the Straits of Messina once more. Our technical research operations in progress, we were visited on occasion by several ships of the USSR. One visitor, a Russian destroyer, stayed with us from early one afternoon to noon the next day. We were given an opportunity to exercise our GTMO Refresher Training during this period. With her escort, the USS LAWRENCE, GEORGETOWN successfully hi-llned lube oil, parts and movies. Carrying out our routine daily duties, we remained in our operating area until mid-February when we headed for our last Sixth Fleet liberty port - Augusta, Sicily. Arriving in Augusta on February 26, we were just in time for the local Mardi Gras festivities. A small town of 40,000 people, Augusta houses an Italian Amphibious Base. While at Augusta, GEORGETOWN was visited by Captain CONSOLO of the Italian Navy who made a brief tour of the ship and was presented with a ship ' s plaque. The hospitality of the Italian Navy and the facilities provided GEORGETOWN by them were outstanding. An Italian warrant officer and an Italian military bus were available to GEORGETOWN while in Augusta. A tour was arranged to the ruins of nearby Syracuse, an early Greek colony. Departing Augusta on March 2, GEORGE- TOWN cleared the Straits of Gibraltar on March 9 and off-loaded Sixth Fleet publications and dispatched mail in another helicopter detail on March 10. mease DM Hi-liners man their stations.
