FOURTH III SIO s THE SALEM cleared Thimble Shoals Channel and headed for the Old VVorId, the Hhrst cruise men stood dreaming of what adventure lay ahead while the old salts were won- dering if this cruise would be better than the last. The big question in everyone's mind was . IfVere the old salts' tales facts or folly? It was a simple matter of two or three liberty ports before this question was answered lor once and lor all Being the Flagship for Com. Sixth Fleet, we soon found ourselves in the role of Good IfVill Ambassadors and we visited many wonderful ports between hard working periods at sea. The itinerary sounds like a large volume encyclopedia with such outstanding Jorts of call as Villefranche, France, C Istanbul, Turkey, Genoa, Italy and many more. One thing is certain-the French bathing suit is here to stay. So soon came September and our cruise was over but as we headed back to the land of our birth we can look back on a most entertaining and educational tour. The tales are many and we all class ourselves as old salts. just wait till we get home to tell the others what they are missing. Was it worth it? lVe'll he back next year with bells on so beware ol the second Nled cruise of the Fourth Division barnacles. 5 5 ?1'f 1 .fi- '.4.5E. p,-, 1: 1 ' V' D YV. K N.. t .
