Our Ship's Store was remodeled last December with the aid of just about everybody and 8600.00 worth of glass, kits, and supplies. This new super bargain basement of ours has managed to sell merchandise worth some 885,000.00-87,500.00 of which went into the ships Welfare and Recreation Fund. -In competition with the store we had our infamous vending machines.
