With the end of the Vietnam War, the real mission seemed to be to promote goodwill and the order of the day was liberty call. However, through hard work and dedication FOX did well to uphold the order of the day and never once were they UA from their ap- pointed place of liberty. In Missile Radar Willie Blue Eyes is still checking it out! , while Missus Olsen Pardee is sure to wind up with ulcers from all that coffee. Marty Schmick is grooving to the tune of the Wedding March . Leo's short, and for once isn't seasick, while Dirty Chuckie made third class and doesn't care 'cause he's short, too. John Atwood has gotten hip with his new quadraphonic clock system. Bill Blankenship couldn't hack radar so he turned to drugs. Also, everyone said goodbye to Jeff Brown, as he decided to change rates and become a civilian first class. Over in 39A Radar, Harry Walker, our distinguished LPO and part- time division officer has got the wannas . Melvin Piser Levy isn't short anymore, he's out and married. We're still waiting for Jim Sniffles Lawson to get rid of his perpetual cold, and Joe Prudent Demko couldn't care less! The GMMs in launcher control have had their problems this cruise. Buddy Bryant took emergency leave first and hasn't come back. Then Craig Steinman left and now he's out. Last Motor Scooter Massie took some emergency leave but he came back-a little late! Massie's return cleared the way for Doug Boats Adams, and he was waiting for us back in Pearl Harbor. This whole time Gus Shull fthe new space leaderl was wishing he had brought his parachute so he could bail out- Make way, regular Navy. Downstairs in Missile Computer Vinnie-the-Pooh has been busy in- crementing the Computer Bank, while Bob Jewell is collecting maps so he can chart a new route to China. Paul Schneider became the division photographer by default and finally sold all his locks. And Roy Van Wolfe firmly stated that he would not stand by...Unless? 18 A- U, 1---we .. ,.......,, 'ma ,,.- ,,,,,,,W,w,m,,, - V... .:.3': -'-1'.':::g--,4..,-.........L2:.-7113 ,.......... .- ' , - '--'- ,L -...-s.n 3...--rf:-P--1.,--... . , . .. -: :umm lf-ff ie if Nr :Wie 'r-H'-we--1 .
