ln the wardroom . . . candles, flowers, music, and memories. I 'fi' ,Q 4 X S' 'Q 1, Captain Fowler and Chief Stiles display cake at farewell party. Change of Command Captain Seth S. Searcy, Jr. relieved Captain Rich- ard L. Fowler of command of the ESSEX, on October l3th, to become the nineteenth commanding officer of the ship. Captain Fowler's new assignment sent him to join the staff of Chief of Naval Operations in Washing- ton, as Chief of Staff and Senior Aide to Admiral Burke. A farewell party was held for the Captain while ESSEX was anchored in the harbor at Naples . . . a candle-lit dinner, a special cake baked for the occasion, goodbye gifts from his fellow officers, an hilarious skit, and of course, a solemn ceremony marking the tran- sition of command. With a final salute and a wave from Captain Searcy, Captain Fowler left the ship, on his way to his new assignment. Captain Fowler responds with a smile to a gift of golf clubs. Evidently it was very funny. 22
