Mc- Guire, and Ripley and you'll undoubtedly come out a poor second. A boxing brigade was formed under coach Jim McGee. Strict rules are kept: plenty of sleep, eating and exercise, and Jim has plenty of volunteers. ln a more serious vein the Fourth Division patrols the port side from main deck to the 02 level and bristles with 5 twin 5 f38 mounts, whose primary job is anti-aircraft defense and secondary job shore bombardment. The deck force has had many sleep- less nights dreaming about the port accommodation ladder, the motor whaleboat and the port waist boom but most of all Drake, Smith, Jula, Ripley and Grimes will remember rigging sea painters. One thing always stands out in the Fourth Division deck hand's mind, their quarterdeck has Ping An Low, Hai. Lee and anything else you desire which canit be said by too many divisions rlhe Fourth Division lays lndisputable claims to the highest morale on the ship with its slogan of More liberty more leave, more parties and more work ringing out loud and true A Wil., SL -'s W R IDS4 oo 00 'I X QW L No. i I i 4. ,7 f U Sense me slr' .1 47 'ml -.,

Dear folks, Well, we're near the end of the cruise now, and since I havenit written in a few weeks, I might as well review the past couple of months. We were all in the gear locker last night, talking about the trip, and itls been long, but a good one, we decided. Like the night down in Norfolk, when the first person I met after I joined the Fighting Fifth was Tobin, our BIVI3. Right away he tried to get me squared away and warned me about stepping out of line, but at the same time he made me feel right at home with my new bunk and locker and buddies. The next day we met Ensign King, our division of- ficer, and HSnuffyw Smith, our leading Bosin Mate, and we were ready to roll. Until our day of depart- ure we were kept busy, shining brightwork, holyston- ing, and loading stores for the trip. Vve were already old salts when Ensign Clipper, Ensign Healy four two junior division officersj and Chief Adams, our LTJC- C. H. KING, JR. ENS L. .I. CLIPPER ENS T. HEALY Dztision Ofcer fr.
