The following was received upon COMDESRON ONE's departure from GRAY: E 5 i To Officers and Men of CRA Y: , It has been a distinct pleasure for me to have had the privilege of being embarked in your fine 2 new ship. Your hospitality to me and members of my staff has made our stay on board most en-- joyable. You have much of which to be proud: your fine ship, your professionalism and skill, and mostly your attitude. Your ship is a unit, so many are just a group of peo le serving in the same ? floating steel box. Your pride in your ship - and yourselves, is obvious whlerever you look and is completely justified from everything I saw. fs! I. J. IIERZOC, Captain, U. S. Navy. 5 5 2. CINCPACFLTNOTE 5700.

AFTER His Realms and States were moved To bare their hearts to the King they loved Tendering themselves in homage and devotion The Tide Wave up the Channel spoke 7 To all those eager, exultant folk:- Hear now what Man was given you by the Oceanff There was no thought of Orb or Crown When the single wooden chest went down To the steering-flat, and the careless Cunroom haled him To learn by ancient and bitter use, How neither Favour nor Excuse, Nor aught save his sheer self henceforth availed him. There was no talk of birth or rank By the slung hammock or scrubbed plank In the steel- rated prisons where 1 cast him' But niggard hours and a narrow space , For rest-and the naked light on his face- While the ship,s traffic flowed, unceasing, past him. Thus 1 schooled him to go and come- To speak at the word-at a sign to be dumb, To stand to his task, not seeking others to aid him, To share in honour what praise might fall For the task accomplished, and-over all- To swallow rebuke in silence. Thus Imade him. 1 loosened every mood of the deep On him, a child and sick for sleep, Throu h the long watches that no time can measure, When ldrove him, deafened and choked and blind, At the wave-to s cut and spun by the wind, Lashing him, dice and eyes, with my displeasure. I opened him all the guile of the seas- Their sullen, swift-sprung treacheries, To be fought, or forestalled, or dared, or dismissed with lau hter. lshowed him Worth by Folly concealed, And the flaw in the soul that a chance revealed, fLessons remembered-to bear fruit thereafterj. 1 dealt him Power beneath his hand, ' For trial and proof with his first Command- Himself alone, and no man to gainsay! him. On him the End, the Means, and the ord, And the harsher judgement if he erred, And-outboard-Ocean waiting to betray him. Wherefore, when he came to be crowned, Strength in Duty held him bound, I So that not Power misled nor ease ensnared htm ' , Who had spared himself no more than his seas had spared htm- A ter His Lieges, in all His Lands, hhzd laid their hands between His hands, ' And His ships thundered service and devotion, The Tide Wave, ranging the Planet, Spoke On all Our foreshores as it broke:- Know now what Man lgave yOU-1, the Ocean RUDYA RD KIPLING '97
