S( ilie fiew . . . This book is offered as a souvenir of a great occasion in the history of a great ship, the winning of the Desiant Battle Efficiency Award by the U.S.S. Damato. To describe the time and effort, the sweat and toil and blood that was poured into winning this award would in itself fill a book. The story of the post-yard shake down period at Guan- tanamo Bay, Cuba; the rigorous training period, general quar- ters, drills, inspections, ori ' s, battle problems, each would fill a page. All this and your outstandingly fine attitude and success- ful completion of the required exercises and problems lent a fine foundation for the work of a year which was to culminate in winning for you the coveted E . The events depicted in this book are re-occurring in the life of a destroyer sailor, even the ports of call in the Mediterranean area, most of them are revisited annually, thus the presentation is typical of life in the Damato. It is hoped that ports have been portrayed to the degree that the book will also serve as a travel guide on your next cruise and excite an interest in places which formerly seemed to possess no color. The book represents the finest production that the editor and his staff have been able to assemble with their limited talents and experience. It has been a pleasure working for a crew which has shown such tremendous interest in backing the project and the most rewarding knowledge that we can hope for is that you are satisfied. We sincerely hope that you will find many personal remi- niscences scattered through its pages; we hope that in poring thru you may see a former shipmate to whom you owe a letter — end :i: c; or that it v ill remind you of a note of thanks you owe to someone hospitable in Scotland, England, France or Italy; or that in the future it aids you in finding your way back to some place in the v orld to renew an old acquaintance. If it does ac- complish but one of these, it is a success. —Edward M. Ward, ETI
