Marias (AO 57) - Naval Cruise Book

Page 5 text:

On 29 August 966 Marias got underway ' rir a ' ' Med Cruise . It was greeted with the various mixed emotions an extended cruise will always get. If the Marias could talk It is quite certain that her thoughts on the subject would have been, ' ' I have an important ofa to do. I will do it as proficiently, as pleasantly and as safely as I can. I will make the Navy proud of me. The pages! that follow are an attempt to bring back to the individual Sailor the emotions he felt at the start,during, and at the end of a long cruise away from home. It is hoped the memo- ries evoked of old shipmates, foreign ports, and life on the Marias will be all good.
