San Francisco On mooring to the familiar Pier 115C, the 08 discharged her load of troops and her own Fifth Demobilization increment plus a compartment full of mail which she had brought from Manila. Shifting to the familiar anchorage Qin San Francisco Bay three miles southward towards Hunters Point, the Lady anchored while all hands avidly perused their mail, which had been swung '.,.-aboard while the ship stood in the harbor, thanks to happy system of on the fly delivery worked out by the Navy and Post Office officials. 0 The Dutchess would sail December 8. ln the 18 days available, the Execu- tive Officer must plan carefully in order to effectively utilize the limitedtime and services of available personnel.

Censorship having been lifted, a few of the young Trlarried men had been able to have their wives join them. Some of the Dutch- , finding the hinterland of Northern California considerably colder in December than in August were able to avail themselves of the winter sports WOflii1'1g by day and playing by night, the tasks were accomplished one 'one by the reduced force.
