K I NAL VIGILANCE N Nlncident closedw The forces of Task Group ALFA return to their ships, to their well- earned rests, and to the routine surveillance of the ocean. One incident, one day, recorded in the logs of our various units, and we wait for the next, never knowing when it will come. One incident of many, this intruder in the ocean. Une incident among thousands, closed, by the alert and knowing actions of the Alfa Team which located, investigated and classified one small noise, a minute contribution to the strange sea of sounds and shadows that is the Atlantic. For even with all the scientific aids provided by the trained minds of men, even with the personal dedication and sacrijice of each individual, the cooperation of each unit, we are still faced with the problems presented by the ocean itself. Our machines, our men, are capable and well-trained. .. yet all of us together are only as capable as our understanding ofthe endless miles of ocean which we must guard. To thts understanding, and to a greater capability to protect our country, we pledge ourselves... the ALFA Team. I s 1 95
