He received his early formal education at Cambridge, Massachusetts and was graduated from the U. S. Naval Academy in the Class of 1923. He was a member of the A Squad in boxing and crew for three years while at the Naval Academy. His first assignments were on the U.S.S. WEST VIRGINIA and the U.S.S. ARKANSAS, where he received indoctrination as a battleship deck officer. His next tour was at the U. S. Naval Torpedo School, Newport, Rhode Island, under instruction in torpedo construction, operation and tactics. Following this was a tour on the U.S.S. CINCINNATI. The next step was from the anti-air- craft battery of the CINCINNATI to naval aviation. In 1926, Ensign Woods reported to the U. S. Naval Air Station, Pensacola, Florida, as a stu- dent aviator. Then on 30 August 1927, as Lieutenant C junior gradej, he was appointed Naval Aviat- or number 3385. On 6 July 1929, Lieutenant C junior gradej Woods was married to Anita Birney Rhea at Annap- olis, Maryland. After tours with various squadrons, Lieutenant Commander Woods, as Commanding Officer of Scouting Squadron FORTY-TWO, won the annual Scouting Squadron Class Trophy for safety in flight operations from aircraft carriers. Upon completion of duty as Commanding Oflicer of Seaplane Training Squadron ONE at the Naval Air Station, Pensacola, Florida, LCDR. Woods was assigned duty as Officer in Charge of the Aviation Cadet Regiment, and subsequently, of the Aviation Cadet Brigade. Soon after Pearl Harbor day, LCDR. Woods was ordered to the Amphibious Force, Atlantic Fleet, as Staff' Aviation Oflicer where he became successively a Commander and a Captain. In the Amphibious Force, Captain Woods participated in the Moroccan and the Sicilian 'invasions and was awarded the Legion of Merit with a UV. .v . Y V , xv' .. Commander J. T. Blackburn USN iff,y:jfijpjxjgi'z ,jjj.,1j3 1 f I , X fo ' Commander R W. Cousins USN EXECUTIVE OFFICERS Commander John Thomas Blackburn has the blood of the Navy flowing through his veins as he is the son of a retired Naval Captain. He was graduated from the U. S. Naval Academy in the class of 1933 and was assigned duty aboard the U.S.S. MISSISSIPPI. He entered flight training at Pensacola, Florida in March, 1936, and won his wings in April 1937. From there he went aboard the U.S.S. LEXINGTON for two years with Bombing Squadron TWO and later with Fighter Squadron TWO. In February, 1941, he became an instructor in Advanced Training Fighters, at the Naval Air Station, Miami, Florida and held that position until June 1942. He then commissioned Escort Fight- ing Squadron Twenty-nine as Executive Officer. That Squadron was attached to the U.S.S. SANTEE and participated in the invasion of Morroco, November 1942. On January, 1943, as Commanding Officer, he commissioned VF Squadron Seventeen aboard the U.S.S. BUNKER HILL. From October, 1943 to March, 1944, his Squadron operated from an air strip in the Solomon Islands. His first tour of duty with BuAer was from May 1944 until May 1945. He then commissioned Air Group Seventy Four, as Air Group Commander, aboard the U.S.S. MID- WAY. Between September, 1946, and October, 1949, he spent one year with the office of the Chief of Naval Operations and two years with the Bureau of Aeronautics. Upon detachment from duty in the SAIPAN, Commander Blackburn was assigned to Heavy Attack Wing ONE with duty involving flying as Prospective Commanding Officer of a Composite Squadron. Commander Ralph Wynne Cousins-was born on July, 1915 in Oklahoma. He was schooled in Michigan and was graduated from the U. S. Naval Academy in 1937. His first duty assignment was on the U.S.S. PENNSYLVANIA where he learned about the battlewagon navy. He reported to Pensacola for flight training in 1940 and received his designation as a Naval Aviator in December that year. He then reported to Bombing Squadron TWO aboard the U.S.S. LEXINGTON and continued with that squadron through the Battle of the Coral Sea in which the Lexington was sunk. He immediately received orders to Bombing Squad-ron ELEVEN, partici- pated in the Guadalcanal campaign, returned to the States in August 1943 and was assigned duty at NAS, Seattle.

In the SAIPAN we look to Administration as the central organization where the action of the day begins. In Administration all officer and enlisted personnel accounting is done and every service record is carefully maintained in an up-to-date status. The Captain's Office is the pivotal point in the system. All incoming official mail - and a great amount of paperwork is inevitable with the running of a modern ship - pours into this office and after being carefully logged is rerouted to its proper destination. Likewise, outgoing official mail funnels through this office. The plan-of-the-day, recommendations for advancement in rating, requests for schools, and those all important recommendations for leave or liberty, originate or receive attention in the Ex- ecutive Oflicer's Office. Included within the activities of Administration are the Legal Section, a specialized staff' re- sponsible for court procedure, investigations, and other judicial functions, and a completely equip- ped Printing Office. ,,2 ff I cf- A rr , f LW ,Qfkfzkfbfz 46' ia?

It is responsible for providing the necessary machinery, apparatus, and equipment to effectively handle and service these aircraft. . Within the Air Department are three divisions - V-1, V-2 and V-3. The V-1 division is primarily responsible for aircraft handling, launching, and recovery. This includes the spotting of all aircraft on the flight deck and hangar deck as Well as the operation and maintenance of the forward and after elevator and the catapult and arresting gear. Other euipment operated by this division includes the aircraft crane, tractors, and the cherry picker, which is used in the event of a flight deck crash. Familiar figures in this division are the blue-shirted plane push- ers, the yellow-shirted plane directors, and the hot papa, in his asbestos rescue suit. The V-2 division is concerned with the maintenance and repair of aircraft and airborne elec- tronics equipment. For this purpose an Aviation Metal Shop and Aviation Electronics Repair Shop are manned and equipped with necessary tools and machines. The V-2 division also provides the needed jacks, slings, and other heavier tools for the squadron maintenance personnel. In short, this division provides all the necessary facilities to aid the squadron in maintaining and repairing their aircraft. An added responsibility of this division is the maintenance and repair of all rolling stock in the Air Department, including the ship's j eeps. The V-3 division is responsible for the fueling and arming of all aircraft. The red-shirted men of this division fuel all aircraft and maintain the complete gasoline system. When bombs, rockets, or other explosives are called for, the V-3 ordnancemen install them on the aircraft. Special bomb and torpedo elevators transport the explosives from below decks to the hangar and flight decks. In iylilew of the explosive nature of their work, safety precautions hold more than ordinary interest to ese men.

Saipan. The fact alone that the Clermont was self-propelled made history in it's day. But the modern air- craft carrier has progressed far beyond that. It is a highly intricate and complicated machine, vir- tually a floating city. The Engineering Department is the unit responsible for operating the machinery which fur- nishes the motive power to carry the ship within range of the enemy, wherever he may be, and the auxiliary machines which make the ship a livable home for ship's company. The Main Engines Division operates and repairs the four main propulsion engines which send the Saipan's 19,000 tons through the seas at 32 knots, about as fast as any major vessel afioat. This division also has cognizance of two of the ship's three fresh water distilling units. The other fresh water distilling unit is operated by the Boiler Division. This process involves removing salt from sea water and using the water for Boiler feed water, drinking, cooking and showers. The ship's tanks hold 112,000 gallons of fresh water. This division also operates the four immense superheat boilers which supply the steam to move the main engines. The ship's fuel oil capacity is 700,000 gallons. The Electrical Division is responsible for the ship's power, light and communications. Six powerful generators furnish the eletricity to light the ship's 5000 electric lights and run almost a thousand motors of varying sorts. The auxiliary Division operates and maintains a wide variety of auxiliary engines and motors. Among A them are the machines that operate the stearing gear, ' fire pumps, ship's boats, refrigerators, steam heating, Q air conditioning and the water coolers Also it operates the machine shop, providing facilities for manufactur- X ing vital repair parts. The repair division is responsible for the upkeep and repair of the ship's hull, decks, fittings, fire tight- ing equipment, ventilation ducts and a host of others. The carpenter, pipefitter and metal-smith shops are operated by this division. As can be seen, the Engineering Department is the Heart of the ship, requiring many varied trade skills to operate the mass of complicated machineryand elec- trical apparatus. This department is also charged with the responsibility for the damage control of the ship. ' -.1-ans-..a.u41,41-u.nu.-+:xf.f g.'.:-4..:.-.Q-uu--- Cgflglbggllhq Ufzbms , Q f mm' f:L,f1f 'f f' 'W' .

Q ' 5 Q V K ufzfwy Qehzdfmenf i The Gunnery Department is composed of three divisions - First, Second and F. The First and Second Divisions are the deck divisions- and the F Division is the Fire Control and Ordnance division. The primary responsibility of the Gunnery Department is the successful maintenance, upkeep and operation of the Anti-Aircraft battery and its associated equipment. However, one of the more important of the secondary duties is general housekeeping - cleaning and preservingthe hull and its fittings. The Gunnery Department has cognizance of over 260 compartments and spaces in the ship. In addition, the deck divisions have the responsibility of the exterior of the hull, the ship's boats, the paint and boatswain's lockers, ground tackle including the anchors, boat boom, accom- modation ladders, life rafts, nets and preservers and the sail loft. The F Division is charged with the upkeep, maintenance, repair and proper operation of the ship's 40MM and 20MM batteries, fire con- trol radar, saluting battery and some 700 tons of explosivesand the magazines in which it is stored. All the underway replenishment functions fall within the Gunnery Department's realm -- fuel- ing at sea, provisioning at sea, transfer of passengers, mail and freight, streaming of towing spars and target sleds. For all these, and for many other evolutions the ship performs, The Gunnery De- partment provides a major share of the necessary man-power. The ship's boats are maintained and operated by the First and Second divisions for the convenience of the Ship's Company.'This thank- less job requires exposure to every type of weather at all hours, day and night. It is easy to see why the deck divisions remain the province of the seaman and the jack-of-all-trades. W.. xy, 1. 4' 'V Y wzfzmy Qffzbwx --. AL. First row, L. to R. Ens. J. W. Hemann, LTJG. T. D.

Qffezffkzzf 52 ,Zwzfzzf Zeke fmefz The Medical Department consists of a Medical oflicer, and hospital corpsman. It is the responsibility of this depart- ment to safeguard the health of the crew. In the Sick Bay spaces, treatment facilities are centered in a Sick Call Room, equipped for the handling of minor ailments and injuries. A laboratory and X-Ray unit afford diagnostic aids, and a well stocked pharmacy exists for the preparation of almost any prescription that may be called for. The Operating Room is furnished with full facilities for the performance of major surgery. To accomodate patients whose illness or injury necessitates bed rest there is a twenty four bed ward, a two bed quiet room, and a four bed isolation room. Another function of the Medical Department is to pre- vent disease. Included in this function are constant super- vision of food handling and preparation, weekly sanitary in- spections, crew instruction in first aid, personal hygiene, f . 1 jf: I LT. Kraske and the maintenance of areas for decontamination in case of radiological warfare. Mention of the responsibility of the Medical Department during flight quarters must not be omitted for at all times during flight operations the Medical Officer and a hospital corpsman are present on or near the flight deck and ready for any eventuality. The Dental Department aboard the USS SAIPAN consists of a Dental Ofiicer and two dental corpsmen. The dental spaces in the sick bay area of the ship contain operative and X-Ray facilities to take care of the ship's personnel in all their normal dental requirements. It is the duty of the Den- tal Department to maintain the oral health of the officers and crew by preventive and operative means as well as by education in oral hygiene. , I , t , .,f- l- a -A A ' , g' 5 A 2 ,lzfff f j , if. ff i V 4, X V ' f J Q 15, fi K4 .2 il ff' s 4- mi 3 ii my ab mtv? is -we -R tf,E.'f . ks-L g 'l 1. , K M, fr' JDM 'fm . 3.9.

The quartermaster's main duties are to assist the Oflicer-of-the-Deck. In port this means making morning and evening colors, keeping track of transfers and absentees, seeing that the oflicer of the Deck is forewarned about ap- proaching VIP's, and keeping a written record of all occur- ences affecting the ship. At sea the quartermaster is the OOD's right hand man. He assists with emergencies, sounds H all the alarm, and is responsible that the ship shows the proper lights. The quartermaster takes the helm in the Pilot House for all important evolutions and maneuvers. He must keep the ship's charts and navigational publications up to date and have a knowledge of tides and currents He must be able to compute time of sunrise and sunset and be famili r ' . , a with the sextant, stadimeter, and modern navigational equipment. All of these important duties combine to make life in the Navigation department busy and interesting. , , X fl 'gt 3, , , f f JR zzvzyzz lbw e az fmefz 1 'K :L uv , l rv-lildfwAwwwx..

Communications, electronics maintenance, combat information, photography and aerology are its principal functions. To further these ends, the department is divided into four divi- sions. These are O-I, O-R, E-R and O-S. The work of the O-I division focuses about the ship's combat information center, popularly known as the hole or the inferno. Despite the air conditioning and the entertaining frescoes on the surface summary plot, it manages to get hot even in winter. Collection, display, evaluation and dissemination of combat information is this division's responsibility. To this end are employed radarmen, sonarmen, aerographers, and photographers. Here the hot dope is given a processing treatment to make it more digestible to those who need to know. The O-R division normally is the home territory of the radiomen whodo a grand job, including publication of the daily underway press news. This division handles all radio traflic except that which is controlled by the CIC circuits. When the fact that liquid will not flow uphill is firmly established and everything goes wrong at once with the electronics gear, the E-R division main- tenance crew takes over. Keeping up the many items of electronics equipment is duck soup for the E-R division manned by our intelligensia, the electronics technicians. l The Signal Bridge is realm of the flag waving O-S division. Visual communications is the prime responsi- bility of the signal gang, which makes up in efficiency for what it lacks in size. There it is - a thumbnail sketch of the Operations Department.

Q' 3 M F 'N f 114 Q he fmefz The Supply Department is composed of the Stores Group, Commissary Section, Disbursing Sec- tion, Wardroom Mess Section and Clothing and Small Stores Section. Each of these sections per- form the various functions associated with their name. It might be said that the Supply Depart- ment operates the military counterparts of a restaurant, hardware and tool supply house, grocery store, meat market, soda fountain and tobacco shop, laundry and cleaners, clothing shop and a bank. Approximately one sixth of the ship's personnel are in the Supply Department. Supply store- rooms and work spaces, some one hundred and sixty-seven in all, are spread throughout the ship. The storekeepers order, issue and account for the consumable supplies used by the ship. There are some 55,000 items carried which vary from a simple screwdriver to complicated electronic equip- ment. The absence of any one of these items may cause inconvenience or serious difliculty. The aviation storekeepers are a group of specialists who perform the above functions for sup- plies peculiar to aircraft and equipment necessary to operate aircraft. The cooks, bakers, stewards and mess cooks are the fellows who peel the potatoes, fry eggs for breakfast and bake those deli- cious pies. A ship like the Saipan carries enough food and beverages to operate at sea for months at a time. Flight operations can be cancelled and maybe the motor launch won't run, but don't ever delay a payday. The disbursing clerks are the men responsible for registering your allotments to the 'missus,' computing and disbursing your pay and effecting the changes to your insurance policies. The ship's servicemen see to it that your laundry 1 is washed, hair cut, shoes repaired, rates sewn on your jumpers, and operate the fountain and ship's store. During the cruise the store purchased and sold, for the 'S convenience of the crew, French perfumes, Florentine leather goods, Italian cameos, French and Italian ladies and men's gloves, Swiss watches and Arab rugs. All profits from these sales help defray the cost of opera- tion of the ship's service facilities and support the ship's welfare fund. fi. 7 9 r 'Y it 'ff Haze, gif l H vm., 4 mfs.

THE AIR GROUP The sole reason for an aircraft carrier's existence is to provide a mobile airfield and mainten- ance facilities for the air group embarked, the striking force of a carrier. The squadrons which make up the air group are composed of the types of planes necessary for the mission assigned the carrier. In addition to pilots and air crewmen, the air group also furnishes maintenance personnel to keep the planes available for flight. For the Med Cruise, the air group embarked aboard the Saipan consisted of Fighter Squad- ron 42, plus detachments of Composite Squadron 4, Composite Squadron 12, Composite Squadron 33, and Helicopter Squadron 2. Fighter Squadron 42 was made up of eighteen F4U-4's, the renowned Corsair fighter. As a fighter squadron, their mission was to participate in strikes against enemy forces and to pro- tect the ship from any attack. For armament, they carried machine guns, rockets, and bombs. The four-plane detachment of Composite Squadron 4 was a night fighting unit. They flew the F4U-5N, a Corsair specially modified for night flying. Its airborne electronic equipment enables it to seek out targets at night. They were responsible for night flights which could not be handled by the day fighters. Composite Squadron 12 consisted of four AD-3W's, a special modification of the Douglas Sky- raider, acting as an airborne early warning detachment, responsible for scouting out and reporting the location of enemy forces to the ship's Combat Information Center. Their radar equipment enables them to detect ships and aircraft long before they are within range of a ship's radar system. Composite Squadron 33 flew two different types of planes, four AD-3N's and two AD-4Q's, both types modifications of the versatile Skyraider. The AD-3N's were night attack planes and for this purpose were equipped with the latest in airborne electronics. The AD-4Q's were used as tow taret planes for anti-aircraft defense drills. Helicopter Squadron Two was represented by a HO3S-1 Sikorsky helicopter which was used as a plane guard during landings and take-offs. Fortunately, the HO3S-1 services were never required. but it was reassuring to all, and especially to the pilots and flight crews. to know that the windmill was standing by to rescue any downed individuals. The helicopter was of inestimable value in many other ways ---- speedy transfer of personnel, often when boating was not practicable, the pick- up and delivery of mail and general utility. fguafhen Uffzms ,-3 Offagwu 'QW First row, L. to R.

N Early on March 16 the portholes of the Saipan were crowded with faces eager for the first sight of Gibraltar. No ordinary coastline or range of rocky hills could appeal so powerfully to the imagi- nation as these Pillars of Hercules. Covered by a tantalizing fog which gradually rose unveiling dramatically this unique sight, there appeared what we could easily imagine to be a crouching monster, a gigantic sphinx set to guard the Mediterranean. Three miles long and about fourteen hundred feet high, this majestic rock had seen the conquest of Spain by the Moors, their expulsion by Isabella and Ferdinand, the departure of Columbus and his triumphant return. And now we were looking at it, this British for- tress, the proverbial symbol of endurance and strength to all the western civilization. Looking across the stretch of water we discerned clinging to the side of the rock a group of yellow stucco buildings, a town, but as insignificant, at this distance, when compared to Gibraltar, as barnacles on a ship's bottom. But when liberty was granted until 1600, this town took on new meaning for us. We found it a curious mixture of East and West with modern cars and shops situated along narrow crooked streets. Evidence of the English domination of Gibraltar is found everywhere. However, there was a large proportion of Moorish, African and East Indian merchants who, as well as the patient donkey, gave this corn2r of Europe the unmistakable flavor of the East. Hurriedly we bought souvenirs for the folks at home before getting back to the ship to move into the Mediterranean. 4 I Wi , .215 in if -1' fl X 1 X 2'-,VV The Riviera, in the words of the travel folders, is France's Garden of Eden. The fabulous stretch of coast known as the Cote D' Azur extends from Marseilles to Menton and enjoys a World wide reputation for unrivaled beauty and variety. The blue Mediterranean sea rolls at the base of snow capped mountains. Surprisingly, with the wind in certain directions, the sea becomes very rough and this was unfortunately the case during our stay there. A visitor is astonished at the sight of streamlined modern automobiles purring past houses a thousand years old, and sophis- ticates rubbing elbows with that most bourgeois of all men, the native Frenchman. Along the 200 mile azure coast an amazing concentration of splendor richly entitles Riviera to its standing as one of the showplaces of the World. Nice, famous for its carnival activities, especially the Battle of the Flowers, was the recrea- tion ground of the sailors. This large, cheerful and somewhat noisy city had much to offer to the men. Its theaters, casinos, splendid hotels, and restaurants satiated the tastes and desires of many. Cannes is one of the oldest and perhaps the most aristocratic of the Riviera winter resorts. With its many opulent villas, hotels, casinos, and bars, it gives one the sensation of being a millionaire for a day. On the Boulevard de la Croisette along the shore are located the famous hotels and palaces occupied by kings, princes, and great personages. The beautiful countryside smelled of jasmine and roses. The pocketbooks of the personnel of the Saipan did not permit many to play roulette at Monte Carlo but many did at least satisfy their curiosity and visit the well known Casino. This majestic building ornate as a wedding cake, was designed and built by Charles Garnier, the designer of the Paris Opera House. On the Riviera, in the height of the season, one will never have a dull moment. Beauty, gaiety, gambling and sporting events are all there. 1 I I U ..v......-. .- . , 1 l -uw . v ..w..-.-......nq-my-.f,..f.n.,...-.,. .-x.4'..f. .. ....-.-.-. .

Travelling through this land of sunshine, you need not be a his- torian to see the influences that remain there of many nationalities and races. Phoenicians, Greeks, Carthaginians, Romans, Arabs, Goths, Byzantines, Normans, Spaniards, French, and Italians have succeeded one another here on this island of fire. It is so fertile that it was once called the Garden of the Mediterranean. Oranges and lemons grew there in a profusion that would make a Florida Chamber of Commerce jealous. Messina was an interesting harbor to enter. The channel entrance is an opening at the end of a graceful narrow tongue of land that resembles an enormous sickle protecting an ideal harbor ,deep enough for the largest vessels. A sight that will remain with us from Messina was the tremendous Cathedral with its beautiful altars and high tower. The tower was covered with statues and life- sized representations of Biblical scenes. At twelve noon they became animated and reenacted the scenes which they portray. The donkey carts were characteristic of Sicily. Visualize a square box, painted a vivid yellow. This is mounted on yellow wheels, held in place by yellow shafts. Hand painted all over the Vehicle are portraits, figures, historical representations, and religious motifs and scenes. No two are alike. They give an air of gaiety to the old streets even though they are pulled by the tiniest of donkeys with the saddest of faces and the largest of pompoms between their enormous shaggy ears. From Messina and Augusta we were able to visit Catania and the beautifully situated town of Taormina, high upon the mountain ledge with its curious bits of architecture, winding stairs and ruins of the Roman Theatre. With Mt. Etna a gigantic volcano, the biggest in Europe, sparkling in the background, Taormina is a unique place in the world. Above Augusta is Catania which we remember as the place of the King of European Volcanoes, the awe-inspiring Mount Etna. The majestic mass of Etna with its cold white dome catching the sunlight and reflecting it below can be seen from any point of Sicily, but here at Catania situated right under the world wonder the sight is most thrilling. We pulled away into the sapphire tinted sea at the time of sunset with the ringing of the An- gelus bells still in our ears, ever impressed by our stay there, ever recalling the enchanting land- scape, the ruined temples, the historical charm of sun kissed Sicily. 4.

A seven mile train ride ' Q ' - across the coastal marshes brought us our first X glimpse of the shimmering African metropolis. Capital of the French Protectorate of Tunisia, the city presented a panorama of alabaster walls, brilliantly colored costumes and sparkling mina- rets. Mingling with the colorful native crowds, white hats moved among scarlet fezzes. The ship's company had ample opportunity to sample the exotic tropical fare in the city's restaurants, cheer the Egyptian and Spanish dancers in the gay cab- arets and purchase souvenir items of the land's X J ga ,f native handicrafts. The more historically minded members of the crew browsed among the ruins of once-mighty Carthage, foremost sea power of the ancient world. A few lucky men found silver and copper coins still lying in the debris of a Roman bath of a thousand years ago. We wandered about the ruins which included an amphitheater, a pre-Christian era apartment house, and the remains of a Roman aqueduct. The SAIPAN's next African port of call was Sfax, also in Tunisia. Lacking the cosmopolitan atmosphere of North Africa's larger cities, Sfax is built on flat desert country running into the sea. The city is particularly notable as a French military establishment and for its large oil storage facilities. After a visit to Italy, the SAIPAN returned to Africa on the 5th day of May, making the fa- mous port of Algiers. There the ship made fast, stern-end-to, to a wharf and a line of lighters was then strung alongside to the starboard gangway. A noisy delegation of eager native merchants wasted no time in setting out their wares along the lighters and harried the ship's company un- mercifully with their merchandising as they passed to and from the ship. Glamorous and wicked Algiers is built against mountain slopes, climbing abruptly from sea level. The climb up was well worth it. The romantic city, often portrayed by motion pictures, came up to all expectations. Noisy, busy, cosmopolitan Algiers, with its chattering and persistent mer- chants, its colorfully garbed natives, patient donkeys and cluttered but gleaming architecture, offered a world of entertainment for all of us. You could sit at a table, order a bottle of champagne and listen to the lovely chanteuse fsing- er to youj at the Black Cat. At other places you could see the lithe, sinuous Arab dancers or the exponents of the French 'fcan-can. Or you could go back into the mountains and see the place where Algerians ski in winter. Skiing in Africa! Or, if you felt like Charles Boyer playing Pepe Le Moko, you could climb to the fortress, stumble through the cluttered streets and Meet me in the Casbah Z The SAIPAN sailed from Algiers on the 9th of May for five days of exercises with the Sixth Fleet before pushing on for Messina, Sicily.
