Well, on this page can be seen those magnificent men who shoot them down. And behind them is their agent of destruction. . .the Tartar missile. These men, coupled with that awe inspiring Tartar, contribute gallantly to the defense and freedom of the seas. A more effective fighting force could not be found. Can you not see the snarls on their faces, the tight lipped, grim determination of their stance? They simply strike terror into the hearts of men. Would you like to get to know a few? Look carefully and you will find Push-Broom Cox fsome people say that his moustache is tied in the back by a yellow ribbonj. There is Sleepy Hollow Davis fyawn for us Sleepyj, Turtle Dove the claims to be a beer drinkerj, Stump Szzttjjetter fnever could spell his namej, Magoo McGhee, and Casualty Causey, to name a few that make up the gang. Varying personalities, characters all, but a fine group to work with. LTJG R. Berg
