Tarawa The Tarawa, as in the case of most aircraft carriers, was named by the United States Congress to commemorate a great and decisive battle. This battle, that of The Tarawa Atoll, was fought in November, T943 by forces of The United States Marines, Navy, and Naval Airforces, and represented thefirst large scale amphibious assault against an intensively fortified Japanese outpost. This'victory came at a time when the Rising Sun was at her zenith, and it gave to The United States a staging area from which she could launch attacks to whittle down the Japanese Island Empire. ln the short but fierce seventy-six hours of battle, 33Ol American Marines, were strewn over the one square mile of Betio lsland, having attained a victorybwhich the Japanese boasted could be accomplished only by amillion men fightingisix months. Truly, as in the words of Major General -Julien C. Smith, leader ofthe invading Second Marine Division- They demonstrated magnificient courage at Tarawa. A A ship to bear the name Tarawa was authorized along with several other im-f proved Essex class carriers in August, l942.g She began to take form nineteen months later with the laying of her keel at the Norfolk Naval Shipyard in Portsmouth, Virginia. At an astonishing pace, the lower platforms and decks grew up the frames inclosing the eight Babcock and Wi..lcox boilers and other vitals. By May -of l945, the shell plating of the hull wasdin place, and with the flight deck and lower levels of the island structure erected,Tthe Tarawa was ready for, launching. Once in the water, the yard workman doubled their efforts putting the finishing touches on the laminated flight deck, and giving her the capability' of' defense by the installation of the main 5'i'f'38 battery.. The 'work'o'n ther superstructure was' completed with the bolting of Combat's 'eyes to the topmast.. Shortly afterl-thewhite forty was painted oniheir stack, the Tarawa was commissionled '1-' in December of l945. Too late to serve in the war which had ended with the capitulation of Japan in the late summer, she was decom- missioned. upon return from a world cruise and added tothe Reserve -fleet. The threat of Soviet aggression in Korea and elsewhere led to the recommissioning of the Tarawa in February, l95l. 'J I So it is that the unparalleled .valour of those who fought the epic jbattle of the Tarawa Atoll is enshrined by this ship. We feel that in these times ofquasi-peace the Tarawa continues to live 'up to the honour of those courageous men. T ,f , ff 1 -wk ,- X 4 7125 wif' 225 W, , W ,W ZW 3 fu 1 11, gb 1 -f. 111 'i K.

No longer were there working parties among piles of supplies, no longer the winding, anxious lines to the phone booths: the pier became its own complete but empty readiness. Thus at 0800 on the morning of November twelfth, l953, we cast off our last holds on the U.S.A. The gift was motion. Within the hull men concentrated on obtaining precision performance from all machinery, on coordinating the activity of detail and division.

Today Algiers serves as the capital of French Algeria, and it is from here that the Governor General and his native deputies regulate the attairs of F-rance's richest possession. ln recent years Algiers has played a significant part in world history. After the November, 1942 opening of the Allied Second Front in North Africa, Algiers became the control point for General DeGaulle and his Free French Forces. Algiers was utilized also as the headquarters tor the Allied forces, during their African campaigns in 1943. Prior history of Algiers has been varied and tempestuous. Orginally the site of a Roman set- tlement called lcosium, it tell into ruins and became the home ot the Berber tribesmen. In 944 A.D. the present city. was founded by Buklculin, who named it el Diezairf' The name became corrupted into Algiers. From about 1530 to 1830, when it capitulated to the French, Algiers nwas the head- quarters of the Barbary Corsairs, who were Berber and Turkish pirates led by European rene- gades. The force tinally required by the French to rout them in 1830 was one of 37,000 men with 4,009 horses, under the ioint command ot Admiral DuPerre and General Bourmount. Ever since this time, with the exception of native b uprisings in 1872 and the temporary occupation by the Axis during World War ll, Algiers has been politically solidified under the French. above Gotewoy to Fronce's most prized possessionj This ponoromic view shows well the modern Algiers with its up to dote port focilities ond buildings.

Under the tutelage of the controlling Medici family Cl3th-Toth centuriesj, she became the workshop of the artist-scientists Michelangelo and Leonardo daVinci, the painters Giotto and Donatello, the architect Brunelleschi, the mathema- tician Alberti, and the thinker Dante. These men by challenging the intellectual monopoly of medieval formalism were to a deciding degree responsible for the birth of the Renaissance. This expression of their :feeling is still very much evidenced in Florence today. A few examples of their greatness are shown on this page. 23 rrisw The Cathedral lrightl and the Campinille labovej, so called Leaning Tower, were constructed at a time when Pisa was the chief city state in Tuscanny. Wealth gained from transporting' Crusaders to Saracen lands and from successful trade and plundering allowed Pisa to begin the construction of the Cathed- ral in T063 and the Campinille in TT74. The Cathedral was consecrated in TTT8, anc relied for building materials on the nearby quarries in the Carrara mountains. Utilizec also in her construction were sixty-eight ancient Greek or Roman columns, capturec by the Pisans in war. The work on the Leaning Tower, which served as the bel tower for the Cathedral, was suspended several times during its building when it was noticed that the foundation was settling to one side. The builders tried to straighten it as they completed their work, but to no avail. Today the T79 loot tower leans out sixteen feet from the perpendicular. RQME The Rnman Forum lTopl was originally a market place where tarmers brought their produce tor sale, but as time went by it became used more and more as the scene ot religious and civic activities. ln time the transition became complete, and during the first two centuries alter Christ, many temples, triumphial arches and statues were constructed here. The columns on the right, at one the time, supported the Temple ot Vespesian, while the ones on the lett are all that remain ot the Temple ot Saturn. The crude arch, left center, was GVGCTGC3 by Septimus Severns to honor his victory over the Parthians. Its poor workmanship points up the decline ot culture that began during his reign.

Outside of being home we really could not have spent the holidays in a better place. Our familiarity with Cannes and environs meant that we had many old friendships to renew and many best known haunts to revisit. Nice, Monte Carlo, Genera, Auron and Paris beckoned to us with their bright lights and exciting Collettes. For those of us with more serious predilections quaint Village d Eze, walled St Paul cle Vence, and a pilgrimage to Lourdes were pos- sibilities.

Our spirits, however, if anyth- -T KfLt s,4, ing became invigorated, and with New Year's celebrations behind us we descended upon Genoa with much enthusiasm. One ofthe first things that became readily apparent to us was the prosperity of the Genoese. This we saw manifested in their clothes, new buildings and active harbor. It was also interesting to note that one of America's foremost benefactors, Christopher Columbus, had been a favorite son of Genoa. I-lere and there throughout the town our travels brought us to old walls and gates. These we soon learned-with a little prompting-protected Genoa when she was an independent republic. Furthur questioning revealed, that at one time during the 13th century, her acquisitions stretched from the Spanish and Barbary coasts in North Africa to the Black Sea. As in the case of her sister city-states, GenOCI'S OICHUGHCG came to an end with Napoleon's invasion of Northern Italy in T797. This brief thumbnail sketch can scarcely do iustice to Genoa, but should serve to bring baclc some of the more important impressions we collected there.

The islands that were later to form the city of Venice became heavily populated in the 5th and 6th centuries, when they were sought as a refuge from the barbaric I-Iuns and Lombards who were ravaging the mainland. Isolated as they were from the rest of Italy, the Venetians soon developed their own independent republic under the leadership of a Doge, and began to utilize ihelf IVISUICIV position for extensive maritime operations. By late mediefal times their control of sealanes and over- seas possessions Eastern Mediterranean and the Levantj made them the most powerful city-state in Western Europe. They held this sway until the I5th century, when Turkish encroachments deprived them of their eastern possessions and forminable power arose against them on the mainland. Venice's final doom came in the I797 invasion of Northern Italy by Napoleon.

Perhaps the first travelers of this route were Arab merchants who in the 6th and 7th centuries B.C. ioined up in Colombo with Chinese tradesmen bringing wares from Southern China. Through the years the continued im- portance of Colombo as a midpoint between East and West has made her a stage on which the principal actors have changed many times. The imprint made by these successive dominant powers has been distinct. The islamic trader of yesterday lives on today in the great number of Moslems who comprise Colombo's merchants. To the missionary zeal of the Portuguese T565-16585 Colombo traces her 20,000 Christians. From the days of Dutch control H658-1796i came the wiclespread cultivation of tea in nearby hills, and the introduction of Dutch-Roman law codes which still form the basis of her civil law. In T796 the Dutch were superceded by the English. The British set up the parliamentary and electoral systern that has governed Ceylon from Colombo since 1948. The English are also responsible for the modernization of Colombo's buildings Gnd business techniques.

This is primarily due to her location between the West and South East Asia. ln recent times this importance has been enhanced by the development of her rubber and tin resources. The Chinese werevthe first to recognize Singapore as a valuable link in western trade. Their activity here commenced in the llOO's with the establish- ment of a trading center. Their influence as a controlling power was cut short, however, in i365 when the Javanese overran their holdings. From this point until l8l9 Singapore remained in the hands of the native Malayans. ln l8l9 the English seizing on the importance of Singapore as a stepping stone to their Far East interests, bought her and began to build her up commercially and militarily. They were temporarily ousted in i942 by the Japanese and their program of co-prosperity for Asia, but regained control in i945 with the defeat of Japan. A more recent threat to x the English position in Singapore has been the emergence of my communist inspired terrorism on the mainland. As yet they T iw have not succeeded in seriously endangering Singapore. 'fl Mi r. :f x 3 E ' K? f , A351 .ff 1-'rf--17? ' It ' I 1 2 I , I I It I , I I I I 4 .

The birth of Fighter Squadron One Hundred Two took place on 1 May 1952, when one hundred and twenty officers and men met sixteen Corsairs at NAS Cecil Field, Jacksonville, Florida. After seven months of strenuous f1ying, the Corsairs were replaced with Panthers, necessitating a complete new familiarization for all hands. However, by January, 1953, the squadron had qualified aboard the U.S.S. Coral Sea and departed for training at Guantanamo Bay and a week aboard the U.S.S. Bennington. That this training. paid off was proven beyond question after the splendid record made in the June Compex Gunnery Exercises. August saw the squadron on the Val- ley Forge to Halifax, Nova Scotia fo training and lnstruc tion of two hundred Annapolis Midship men in the ways of carrier get aviation A large shuffle of personnel Sep l tember left scarcely enough time to re- organize and qualify the squadron in Octo er lust prior to embarking on the squadrons greatest venture to date, clr cling the globe with the USS Tarawa .I r . - ' - b ..... .'
