On ll July 1972, McCloy was underway for her first ex- tended operation in three years. The weeks preceding the deployment had been hectic, The dates had been changed three times, and until early June it had been uncertain if we were going to the Mediterranean or Northern Europe, Weeks of extensive prep- aration had gone into readying the ship for the weeks ahead, The ship had undergone a major facelifting and was now in excellent material condition. That day was diffiCl11I Good-by Burnie 1 as are all farewells, Long separations have always been one of the unpleasant aspects of Navy life, After the farewells to families were accomplished, however, McCloy was ready to undertake the task at hand, We set sail on a bright, sunny day, The beautiful weather was to be a precursor of the weather encountered during the transit and the ma- jority of the cruise, - .

TL L, England, despite its differences, was closest thing to home found abroad, T15 English, though reserved, were friendly and unfarlingly courteous The entire country was rich in tradiuon and sites such as Nelson s Victory could be seen in Pom mouth. London, only one hour by train, proved to be the highlight of the cruise, Big Ben, Parliament, Westminster Abbey and all the other traditional tourist sites lived up to our expectations. The ten-day break gave some members of the crew a chance to tour the area with their wives. JI-- V A N ,I ,. WESTMINSTFR AIIIKFY v Bmw!! .gt if LONDON TOWER BRIDGE 'VN 4.
