.,,.,,. , '4' Sw gt Lf, if 5 gg T5 U. S. S. KEARSARGE CCVA-33? cfo FLIIT noir orrnc: SAN FRANCISCO. CALIFORNIA At Sea l April 1958 This is the Captain speaking - Once again our bow is pointed toward pgrt, This time our home-port and that long awaited reunion with our families and our loved ones. It has been a good cruise. I'm sure for each of us there will be many happy memories - and some sad ones -- of this NESTPAG cruise -- August 1957 to April l95F. We have been a great team -- Commander Carrier Division FIVE and Staff, Air Task Group THREE and KEARSARGE. We have given a good account of ourselves in 7th Fleet. Our only reason for being out here - far from our homes and our loved ones -- was to further the policies and protect the peace of the United States. This we have done. And we have done it in a manner which has brought credit to ourselves, the Navy and our country. I am extremely proud of what we have accomplished and to have had the honor of commanding you and KEARSAHGE. And each of ynu should share this pride, for it took all of us -- work- ing tcaether -- each doing his part to the best of his ability - to make the team - and do the job. We will never sail together again as we do today. Others will take our places in the days to cone. But KEAHSARGE will never have a finer crew or a better cruise. To each of you I say a heart felt NThanksH for a job WELL DONE! . 1 rj X' ,ff 'L I f r . ' aiu fu A... V f x ,f f' 1 gif zi-
