LA QPEZIA. ITALY Commemorative War Statue in a Local Park The Fishing Wharfs Along the Waterfront La Spezia, Italy, was the location of our second tender period in the Med. La Spezia, is located on the Northwestern side of 'the boot' of Italy. lt was during this ten day tender period, that much needed work on the WALDRON was accomplished. The tender period wasn't all work and no play for the crew however, for there were many excellent beaches near La Spezia. Baia Blu Beach is one of the beaches near La Spezia that will long be in the memories of the WALDRON Crew. Baia Blu Beach, was the beach where practically all the ship's divisions held their di- vision parties. This was our first opportunity to go ashore with all of our fellow division workers and our Division Officer for an afternoon of swimming and sunbathing, topped off with 'Good Old American Beer,' pur- chased from the tender. Aside from the beach parties, several tours were available, in- cluding another three day tour to Rome, offering to those who went, a Papal Audience, and one day tours to Florence, Genoa, Portovenere, and nearby Pisa, where the world famous historical Leaning Tower of Pisa is located. La Spezia, in addition to its fine beaches, also availed to us fine soft- ball diamonds and basketball courts. Teams from the WALDRON partici- pated in these sports, against teams from the other destroyers and a local Italian team. Many of us visited the U.S. Army Base of Camp Darby located near La Spezia. pg? if i iii' i, a JI 'K' T! .
