At this writing, one is peacefully sleeping, one is contemplating the prospects of becoming a civilian or joining the Air Force upon dis-charge 'from the USN, (those are very good indications he will wind up doing his twenty), one is mak-ing preparations to fly off the ship tomorrow for temporary duty in Korea for a spell, and yours tru-ly is wondeing why he isn't fol-lowing the example of the first lad mentioned. Gerald D. Broderick, Seaman Ap-prentice, USN, of the O-- I division is one of the ship's able look-outs. It is through their efforts that the safety of the ship de-pends. Ward D. Davis, Aviation Mach-inist's Mate Third Class, USN, hails from the V-- 2 division. He is better known to his shipmates as "Ace". He is deserving of the name as he is one of his division's most mocpetent petty officers. Ace is leaving us tomorrow for a month or more to be on a special as-signment in Korea. He is the only man in ship's company that pos-ses-the qualifications demanded for his mission. You can depend on it that he will have a job well done upon his return. Roger S. Edwards, Aviation Mac-hinist's mate third class, USN, is attached to our "Give 'Em Hell" air group. He is plane captain of one of the jets on board and it is at all times in tip top condition. It has to be, and Roger is the man who see to it that it is kept that way. His hours are often long and hard, but you seldom hear a com-plaint. He knows, and we all know that his efforts are counting. Joseph L. Ellis, Yeoman First Class, USN, of the "X" division, is the ship's yeoman. He is either re-ferred to by his shipmates as the man with the "Hot Scoop" or the "Bum Dope Artist". (Most all yeo-men are). His duties dwell with the ship's administration and per-sonnel. It is like shovelling sand against the tide, but is one of the most Interesting billets in the navy. He is a confirmed twenty-yea- r man and likes it. Oh well, "To Each His Own". By this time Gerald is more than like continuing his sweet dreams, Ward should have his sea bag packed and ready to go, Roger is probably is still pondering over the civilian - Air Force problem or has probably decided to join the Foreign Legion instead (tch tch). Lavar is on his way to the compartment to commence a few dreams himself. The engines are still roaring, the jets whistling and the sea still churning, but some- - day they will stop and we will be seeing you again. Till then, we will still think o'flten of the "Old Home Town". J. L. Ellis.
