LEFT - YN3 Mike Novak leaning on one of Trondhiems more exotic inhabitants. He don ' t talk much, but he ' s easy to get along with, commented Novak, LOWER LEFT - YNl John Norris and sidekick RPSN Tank White hit the streets of Trondhiem. It ' s not just a job, its an adventure, the dynamic duo were heard to say before taking off for hamburgers. LOWER RIGHT - HM1 Don MacNaughton and BM1 Norm Depot sight seeing in Trondhiem. The Trondhiem fjord was wet and misty the day MILWAUKEE pulled in. During the trip up the fjord, the MILWAUKEE was often swathed in rainbows. At one point a rainbow curved over the bow of the ship and seemed to travel with us for several miles. It was quite a welcome after three weeks at sea.
