E. B. Sawtelle Eggerton B. Sawtelle, Executive Officer aboard the Sheliak since 3 August, 1945, was born- 1 May, 1904 in Boston, Mass. After some preliminary education at Haverford, Pa., Mr. Saw- telle went on to Drexel and a B.S. in civil engineering. In 1932 he entered the Army reserve as an officer and 9 years later trans- ferred his commission to the Coast Guard. Immediately before the war the Lt. Comdr. served as Navigational engineer aboard ship and in 1944 reported aboard the Sheliak as its first naviga- tor. He lives in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, is married and the father of four children. I i J J. P. White Cfaww- ' Justus P. White will probably be longest remembered as the Sheliaklvexecutive officer since he held that important position for well over eight months. A former student and football star at Alabama University, Commander White is also a graduate of the U. S. Coast Guard Academy at New London, Conn. Before re- porting. aboard ship Commander White served as pilot in the Coast Guard Air Force, and distinguished himself creditably in that capacity. The Commander is married and the father of two children. A more OF THANKS From the raw cold of Brooklyn's December to the bright spring of Okinawa's April is a short time in this span of life but one that most of us will never forget. Our ship had been welded into the precise working outfit required for this combat operation in this very short time-she had found herself completely and proved it. This achievement is the work of no one man or small group of men. The intelligent, whole hearted cooperation of a hard driving crew at Work did the trick. The satisfaction that comes from that innerknowledge of having done an important job well should warm your hearts and carry you courageously through the future -come what may. V The battle tension is now a thing of the past-a memory. f Q- - ., . Changes have taken place and many more will follow. The entire shipls company can be justly proud of the manner in which they have conducted themselves during times often more trying than battle. You have passed the final test for a line military organiza- tion and passed it with flying colors. You went out knowing you did not have to come back. You have always been ready-and willing. You came back and in so doing kept your heads through- out and kept your ship on an even keel. You have upheld the finest ideals of the United States Coast Guard and the Naval Service-a double duty blended into one. God bless you and God speed to you-one and all. May the future hold good health and success-and time to enjoy both. ' E. B. SAWTELLE 4 Executive Officer -
