Rhodes, isle of quiet enchantment, and the only port where Kalayjian lacked a relative. Combat: No sweep on the VF! - Schmidt: Bet they forgot to turn it on again! the strange case of the man who wanted a cigarette with his peanut butter. Buglewicz's lie detector, by the way, anyone seen two tubes from the Wardroom TV set? the time the Engineers lifted safety valves and Quackenbush nearly jumped off the mast. Katzman's hat, and the rumor he might have eyes under it somewhere. the terrific tours, and DeVera's look of anguish when he found he'd missed one. -Forward Radar with its exotic equatorial atmosphere. Gould, an LPO who loved his work, but still seemed anxious to get back to Boston, wonder why? .1- .1- 1. Qi V f f ' ' ' ws ,WA Ens Whitney G CHRELE Woodruff .- zczxi N ,g , 'S 'we t 'li f irq?
