l T HE seatighters of the puny revolutionary frigates, of Mobile Bay, of Santiago, the Atlantic patrol, Midway, of Leyte Gulf were not always successful, nor always brilliant, nor always heroes. Some were, of course, and some were unsuccessful, and some were dull and undistinguished. But they all had one thing in common-a iob to do. Doing their iob, whether successful or not, was their tradition. It is the tradition of the Navy and the men of the Navy. lt has become a mystic, fraternal mantle cast over all-that unites the brilliant with the plain. It is claimed by the rusty, unsung yard tugs along with the queenly battlewagons. It unites the admiral and the lowest seaman in the spirit of their task. We claim not only the heroes of the past, the brilliant or the wise-we claim all, the grimy snipe and the all-conquering idol, the yeoman in Washington and the dying gunners mate. When the victory flags were flown and trumpets joined the chorus of thankful hearts that heralded the war's end-the iob had been done. It matters little what the war or in what age-the iob was always done. It was done by not a few, nor by many, but by all working in concert. To the spirit that has inspired its accomplishment we humbly dedicate this book.
