HERE WE ARE AGAIN Naples, Italy, the most visited port during the DAHLGREN ' s voyage to the Mediterranean provided many visual delights. There were cu- rio shops, restaurants, parks, museums, opera houses and colorful street vendors with every conceivable object for sale. The most fre- quently visited spots in Naples were the Naval Support Activity and the NATO Base ex- changes where stereo and camera equipment was purchased in tremendous quantities. Na- ples served as a base of operations for many who traveled to Rome, Pompeii, Mt. Vesuvius, Capri and the Italian Alps. Tours to these places provided stimulating and enlightening changes in scenery from long days at sea. The Rome tour was unanimously acclaimed as the best one available. A two day trip, it left all who went with a lasting impression of the beauty and spectacle that is Rome. Naples will remain in the minds of DAHLGREN sailors be- cause of the three trips made there, but mostly because of those crazy, zany street vendors who lined the walk back to Fleet Landing ev- ery night.

CREW SEES POMPEII The ruins of the ancient city of Pompeii at the base of Mt. Vesuvius were visited by many a DAHLGREN sailor as Naples became a famil- iar name on the port visit schedule. A chair lift trip to the top of the active vo lcano and a taxi ride to a nearby cameo factory were standard stops on the Pompeii tour. Being able to view the Italian cameo artisans at work often led to purchases in the factory shop outlet. Pompeii was intriguing as always with its museum, am- phitheater, and fascinating history. Hours were spent exploring the excavations and hypothe- sizing about the last days of this doomed city. Pompeii will continue to draw young sailors as long as Navy ships come to Naples. ■■■■M
