0RF0lK NAVA AIR STATIUN VARITIES After an overnight trip from New York, the ORISKANY anchored in Hampton Roads, Va., off Norfolk. Here for the next few days stores of ammunition and fuel were taken aboard and upon the completion of this operation we tied up in Norfolk next to our friendly rival, the MIDWAY. The remaining time of our brief stay here was spent in visiting some of the well-known attractions in and around Norfolk and in enjoying Southern hospitality-which would also be the last state-side hospitality we would receive for the next few months, at least. The most memorable part of our stay was the last night, when Norfolk's Naval Air Station treated us to a performance by the NAS Varieties, a talented group of theatrically inclined sailors and Waves. lt was an evening of entertainment featuring soloist and group dancers and singers, very ably supported by the ship's band. They gave us a spirited send-off and we were indeed grateful for having the show on board. Also it gave us a chance to contribute to a worthy cause-Navy Relief. After this it would be strictly Samba and Tango rhythms we would hear. And by now we were looking forward to taking a few turns to them ourselves. Varieties curtain call.
