CONSTANTA, ROMANIA CORONADO visited the Romanian Black Sea port of Con- stanta June 16th to 19th. Ronnania is the only Soviet Bloc nation regularly visited by U.S. Navy ships. Romania is located along the west coast of the Black Sea and borders Bulgaria to the South, Yugoslavia to the Southwest, Hungary to the Northwest and the Soviet Union to the North. The city of Constanta is Romania ' s only port on the open sea and is located 140 miles east of the capital of Bucharest. It is particularly important for the export of oil which is brought in by pipelines from the Ploiesti oil fields north of Bucharest. Constan- ta is the site of the for mer Romanian city of Tomis, which was rebuilt by Constantine the Great in the 4th century and renamed Constantiana. Today, Constanta is the largest and busiest sea- port in the Black Sea. Enroute to and returning from Romania, CORONADO transit- ted the narrow Turkish Straits (Dardanelles and Bosporus) and the Sea of Marmara, passing within 600 yards of the ancient city of Istanbul, Turkey. While in Constanta crew members toured the city and visited many historical sites, including the Romanian Sea Service muse- um, the Romanian National Museum of History and Archeology and participated in bus tours of Romanian ' s Black Sea Coast.
