Harris (APA 2) - Naval Cruise Book

Page 103 text:

A Post Script . . . ... to the story of the Harris should concede that the attempt to tell that story has of necessity been fragmentary. The ad- ventures of three thousand men in four years of war can be only touched upon in so few pages. It is especially to be re- gretted that pictures of many of the officers and men who manned the Harris through often dangerous and always difficult days were not available for inclusion. A note is here appropriate expressing appreciation to Cap- tain G. L. Burns and Lt. Comdr. B. I. Beck for taking the initia- tive in putting this pictorial biography of the Hari Maru on record. It is further appropriate that a public thanks be said to the staff who combined efforts to tell the story. They were: M. A. Rosenberg, Lt. (jg), USNR G. R. Haslop, 2nd Lt., USMCR W. E. Ryan, Ens., USNR W. E. Winter, PhMic, USNR G. E. Manning, SM3C, USNR W. A. Perry, MM3C, USNR E. W. Kinny, QM3C, USNR R. J. Littlefield, Fic, USNR To be added is a statement of appreciation to E. M. Dickin- son and Bill Greuling of the Rand Press, Boston, for generous assistance far above and beyond the requirements of the pub- lishing contract. L. E. Wright, Lt. (jg) SC USNR, Editor t5? ;v»3K5f J -r«? ' ;5?=K ' ' «?r;- 3» ;??- |gp s--
