X, INGS POINT owes no greater debt than that which it owes to Admiral Henry A. Wiley. As Commissioner in Charge of Training with the Maritime Commission, Admiral Wiley became in 1938 the Father of the United States Merchant Marine Cadet Corps. But the debt of the Cadet Corps is perhaps not so great as that which all the nation owes to Admiral Wiley. His work in 1938 merely culminated a life devoted to the thousand duties that fall to the man who gives himself to the public service. After graduation from the Naval Academy in 1888, Admiral Wiley fought through two wars, being at various times in command of such ships as the U.S.S. SARATOGA, U.S.S. NEW JERSEY,

and the U.S.S. WYOMING. In 1927 Admiral Wiley became the ranking officer in the Navy as Commander-in-Chief of the United States Fleet and held that position until his retirement two years later. Seven years later, however, the Admiral ' s abilities demanded that he return to public life as a member of the Maritime Commission. Here he remained for four years. Then war came and Admiral Wiley returned to the Navy for which he had lived. Until his death in 1943, Admiral Wiley was on active duty in the Office of the Secretary of the Navy, heeding to his last his country ' s need.
