TROMSO, NORWAY M Vast billowy whiteness . . . pleasant warm congeniality inBm The North Sea obeyed the laws of gravity as we steamed ' neath the shadows of the breathtaking snow-capped mountains and the cool, crisp air they brought. We crossed the Artie Circle and took pictures of it. We ' re now official (and actual) BLUE NOSES. The first American ship in Tromso in two years, found us all over the front pages upon arrival. The city and its people were ours, and we loved it. We remember much of this beautiful fishing town . . . the Grand Hotel . . . the Tirpit-z ... the Northern Lights . . . Mack ' s Brewery with beer in every scuttlebut . . . beautiful blond girls . . . climbing mountains . . . that look people gave you that made you feel you were really something ... all those kids on the dock watching every move you made . . . the earthquake that Fleishman al- most started at the Arbeiderforeningen Dance, with Coudreaut and Rosplochowski contribut- ing the sound effects . . . the few friends Howell and Carafeno invited aboard that was a whole high school. It was truly great to be an American sailor in Tromso, Norway. One Pub, one movie . . . 14,000 wonderful people.
