. . AQ, , U J i run OL' DOUBLETROUBLE ip J haPPy to receive aboard Ensign M. H. Lininger,USNRQ. as he was to become our Disbursing Oflicer. His store- keepers, Parsons, R. P., SKl!c, Vrobel, R. V., SK2!c, and Whitcraft, J. R., SK2!c set up shop in a hurry and soon we were receiving our pay. Smith, M. J., STM2!c reported aboard on December 17. The day before- Christmas we received Heslin, J. C., Phm2! c, who later became our M.A.A., and McAlpine, J., Slfc a quarter- master striker. J On Christmas Eve we anchored down stream to await orders. The Captain and the Executive Oflicer went to the Federal Building for our orders. We had a Christmas tree on the Tank Deck and a great stack of gifts which had come from the American Red Cross. Each man received a black turtle neck sweater, a pair of gloves, a scarf, and a stocking cap. A carol-sing was held and everybody had a wonderful time. As this was the first Christmas away from home for many of the men aboard-their thoughts were with their loved ones back home. We had some excitement when the Cap- tain's boat returned. It had been raining all day, and late that evening it became very stormy. In attempting to tie-up the boat, Motor-Machinist's Mate Norton fell into the water, and Seaman Kantner fell in trying t0 rescue him. The boat was crashing against the side of the ship, and the ship was rolling slightly at anchor. It was quite a relief when we finally managed to haul the men aboard. Each man was clothed with heavy gear which made the rescue all the more difficult. 8
