N fix WN fl lw ex fr mid V X fel '?QflllM f il Q flue We are the people of the HAVEN! We're from New York, Wisconsin, Alabama, Washington, Florida, Wyoming, New Mexico, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Texas, California, and of course, from the best state, our own. We're doctors, lawyers, merchants, tinkers, tailors, mechanics, cooks, bakers, nurses, students, farmers, miners, foundrymen, carpenters, painters, plumbers, salesmen, insurance men, remittance men, policemen, firemen, confidence men, and almost anything else you can think of. We're Navy . . . regulars, careerists, single hitch men, Reserves extended in- voluntarily, ditto voluntarily lll, Reserves who've volunteered for active duty, and retreads, called back for more service. But one and all, we're Navy. We're the kind of a crowd you'll see anywhere in America. Some are tall, some short, or fat, or thin, dark, light, ruddy, sallow, swarthy, blond, brunette, red-headed, with blue eyes, brown eyes, or grey ones, green ones. We're hand- some, homely, happy, sad, old, young, and in-between., But wherever we've been, who we were, whatever we are or hope to be, we're every one of us here for one thing: we have a job to do.
