Toledo (CA 133) - Naval Cruise Book

Page 46 text:

As far back as T775, United States Marines have served aboard ships of the United States Navy. The duties of Marines during those early years were similar to a great extent to those performed in the present day. One of the important functions of the Marine Detachment on a cruiser is to provide a nucleus for a land- ing party trained for operations ashore at a moment's notice. Other chores of the ship's detachment are to provide internal security for the ship and orderlies for the commanding officer and executive ofticerg also to man secondary gun mounts and assist in the orderly operation of the ship's brig. The Marine Detachment aboard the TOLEDO consists of forty enlisted men and two officers. At the start of the present cruise the commanding officer was Captain H. J. Korstange, who was relieved the ninth of November by Captain A. C. Smith, Jr. First Lieutenant M. E. White is the detachment Executive Officer. The detachment is organized in three duty sections. Each section is capable of performing as a Marine rifle squad. Perhaps that is why the Marine team had such a sharp eye in the softball tournament. The Marine team was runner-up against Fox in the inter-league championship. CAPT A. C. SMITH TS TLT M. E. WHITE
