SUPERINTENDENT’S MESSAGE TO TIIE GRADUATING CLASS An Historic Class, graduated under the pressure of a war 8,000 sea miles away and needed so desperately to officer the ships carrying oil, ammunition, gasoline, napalm, tanks, helicopters, “guns and butter”, that its graduation date was advanced a full six months. My congratulations to every graduate who gave up his liberty periods and leaves in order to complete his required courses in this compressed time. Our four year, fully accredited, university course is hard and to cover it and pass his examinations for his degree and license in a shortened senior year is not easy. Faculty Staff and Students responded to my request which came to me from the Maritime Adminis- trator in Washington who in his turn had been requested to supply more ships and hence more officers for the war effort in Vietnam. This Federal Academy proudly achieved the honor of being the first to be ready, and on February 10th, this Class was graduated. No other academy was able to come near this date. So waiting ships were on their way and as I write this letter every man in this Class is an officer at sea in our American Merchant Marine. Thus once again we fulfill our pledge “Give us the goods, and we’ll deliver!” God keep you on your long haul, and bring you safely home. You have my fullest confidence in your ability, leadership and patriotism. Well Done! Class of ’67. Sincerely, Gordon McLintock Rear Admiral, USMS Superintendent 23
