I ' ll addition to the beach parties, our popular Padre arranged a couple of sightseeing tours for those desiring to learn more about the island ' s beauty and historical background. It was here that many of us learned that Guam is i2 miles long and is a variable 4 to 8 miles in width. The population is approxi- mately 75,000 and one people of whom 30,000 are Guamanians. Their remainder consist of military, federal and contract personnel and their families plus the additional one for the Jap soldier or sailor who is still at large hiding out in the mountain somewhere, unaware of the fact that the Land of the Rising Sun threw in the towel over six years ago. Late Monday afternoon, September 10th, we loaded up with cabin passenges and troops, and said farewell to Guam, and set out in the direction of Hawaii. We arrived at Pearl Harbor on the morning of Monday, September 17th, and took on a few more cabin and troop passengers who were also homeward bound for San Francisco. With a short four-hour liberty under our belts we were underway again for the final time prior to completing the complete circle trip around the globe. At 1303, Saturday, September 22nd, ninety-nine days from the day we started out from San Francisco on June 16th, 1951, our world ' s cruise came to an end. The trip was completed without a single untoward incident and besides a once in the lifetime thrill to the Mann ' s crew, our country gained an unpurchasable amount of goodwill with our allies, especially the German and French people. THE END
