coMMAND:Nc v FFICER CAPT. HERBERT C. FERGUSON FAREWELL FROM THE C.O. This has been a very gratifying tour of duty for me. During these three years at Marquette I have enjoyed participating in the trans- formation of an elite but indecisive group of healthy young men into mature, confident and able Naval Officers. As you near the end of your training and your commissioning date is rapidly approaching, your mind begins to clear from the maze of facts, formulas and information, and one concept becomes fixed in your mind. Above all the aspects of your training, you reflect upon one thing, when you raise your right hand and repeat the oath, UI Do Solemnly Swear That I Will Support and Defend . . .n, you affirm to your country and to the world that you are ready and willing to accept the responsibilities of your office. Embrace these responsibilities as obligations and opportunities. Conduct yourself with dignity. Wear your uniform with justifiable pride. As graduates of a highly respected educational institution and with your commission in the Navy or Marine Corps you will find that you are well equipped to meet the complex challenges of our times. You can expect to compete very successfully with your contemporaries in or out of the service. You have the toolsg your success is what you make it. Whichever course you choose, I wish you luck, success, happiness, and Bon Voyage. It has been a pleasure being shipmates with you. H. C. FERGUSON
