OUR SKIPPER, l Captain Daniel W. Abercrombie HIS WORDS, To The Men of The PROCYON: Most of my duties during the past 24 years have been oriented around The Cruiser-Destroyer Navy. Conseauently, my association with The Service Force was always from The oTher end of The burton or highline transfer rig. The Service Force people were Traditionally known as Those who were There when you needed Them, and who effortlessly passed you The fuel, chow, and ammo and Then steamed off to a port for liberty and happy Times. My tour on board PROCYON has altered my con- ception of Service Force activity considerably. l have witnessed The Procyon crew enduring days on end of exhausting, back-breaking work. I have seen you finish unreps and fall asleep immediately on your Transfer station, being even Too Tired to go below. The iob you do is an arduous, unglamorous, and often dangerous one. However, you must never for- get for a minute how important iT is. Without you and The rest of your Service Force shipmates, The Fleet would be nothing more Than a glorified coastal patrol force. Cut off from her fuel, ammunition, and her food, The Fleet must operate closer To Naval Bases. lt is The Service Force which provides The Fleet with its vital capability of staying aT sea for long periods of international crises, allowing our leaders To make emergency use of The Fleef aT any Time, 'sending iT any place on The globe. Consistently, during The cruise, we have enioyed being The recipients of excellent comments from cus- tomers and from our seniors. They have commented on our smart appearance, our efficient and effective service, The noticeable competence displayed by you, The crew of PROCYON, and occasionally on The heroic iob you have done. l have been proud To command so fine a ship and To have worked with so memorable a crew.
