I I We are on a long journey halfway 'round the earth. Some sailors and marines missing their children's birth. Families are so far away, but still within our heart. Wives and girlfriends pray for an end to the time apart. Friends will wait for stories of all the things you've done. But now you're only thinking of the journey you've begun. Time begins to go by slow, letters just ain't enough. You want to see your loved ones, you know you must be tough. SH2 Tim Burks (top), ship's store operator, is responsible (or maintaining the ship's store, which stocks such health and comfort items as toiletries, clothing items, candy, and cassette tapes. SH3 David Puchi (above) runs the ship's laundry and keeps everyone's clothes and uniforms clean and pressed. One quarter left to go now, the time is close at hand. Think of friends and families, balloons and big brass bands. The offload has now started, we have just one more day. The homecoming now so close that once seemed far away. Now you won't need letters to show the way you feel. The homecoming has arrived, all the happy faces are for real. — MM3 Michael E. Railey 121

The combination of talented performances and pretty girls was a winning one that made these USO shows very special occasions indeed. 122
