AUGUSTA BAY SICILY Augusta Bay, Sicily, our first real port visit overseas, was also one of our lengthiest (if you count the return visit). After transiting the Atlantic, most of the crew was ready to see the sights of Sicily, and see the sights they did. With three tours arranged the crew had ample oppor- lunitv to view some of the sights of Sicily, and scunple the fine Sicilian food. Probably the most popular tour was to Mt. Etna, a live volcano with ruins dating back to 2000 B.C. The soccer team had its first opportunity to show its stuff, and against somewhat stacked odds they managed to walk away with an 18-1 loss and a win by forfeit. Many of the crew had a chance to visit the Naval Air Station at Sigonella, taking care of uniform needs and making the much needed phone calls home. PC3 Whitmeyer kept busy with the first mail run, it seemed as though he would never finish sorting it all, but when he did he made a lot of the crew er happy. On our second visit to Augusta Bay, the USS YELLOWSTONE provided a Beer on the Pier pari in which ihe proceeds went to the Combined Federal Cam- paign. The ship was anchored in the basin ap- proximately 500 yards from the shore along w ilh four other ships. The ship completed a very successful IMAV with the YELLOWSTONE, a strong statement for theadajjtabilit) of the Navy and its men. Although not the most exotic port isited, the men were glad to pull in and get scjme much needed liberty.
