During her first year our ship has sailed in seven Pacific seas and carried troops in all of them. She has ranged the West Coast of the States, made the small towns of Astoria and Port Townsend big names in our lives, taken us to memorable liberties in Seattle, ' Frisco, Long Beach and San Diego. She has moved across the ocean to old Hawaii, to Eniwetok ' s blue lagoon, Ulithi ' s picturesque Mogmog, Kossal Roads off enemy-held Babelthaup, the battle-scarred coast of Leyte, muddy Tacolban, native Abuyog. She has carried fighting men to action at Okinawa, withdrawn unscathed, steamed on to Guam, Pearl Harbor, the States. Hardly pausing, she has retraced her course westward, this time to battered Manila, across the equator to New Guinea, back to the Philippines, back a third of the way around the world to our home port. Ours was a busy ship, covering 50,000 nautical miles within the year. Here is the story in pictures of our first year aboard the Lycoming, a year that taught us to speak a salty brogue, made us plank ou iters, golden dragons, lusty shellbacks, and left many memories IN OUR WAKE.
