It is the Story of the american Navy. I he Mere process of transporting tins immense invasion Force and of protecting it on the Way j Tjie is one of the most thrilling things far Ive experienced in this War. I was on one of the fleets headquarter ships. We had been lying in Harbor for a week waiting while All the other snips got loaded. Finally without Ever being told we knew the big Day had come for All that Day the slower troop carrying barges had filed past us in an unbroken line. Heading out to sea. Finally around 4 in the afternoon the Harbor was empty and our ship cleared off All those who weren t going along and we slipped quietly from our pier. There Wasny to any excitement about our leaving or even any Especial thrill every body a merely glad that the time had i come. Those last couple of Days i waiting Are always the Wurst. Getting under Way in fact doing anything is a Welcome remit i. The a it was . The Sun was Jar Down the arc of us but ii was still Bright and the weather was warm we i steamed Cut past a bomb Shat i tired City past scores of ships sunk in the earlier Battles for North Alrica. Past soldiers and sailors on land who weren t going along and who waved to us Good the a Bu-1 Salute to colors wh�?0f we wl4ved Back with a feeling of in isl Heri Orit it a we a11 inside. Without saying it that we woe part of something historic almost men of destiny you might Call us. Our vessel Slid along at half Speed making almost no sound everybody not at work was on Ltd or a ast look at african soil. The Mouth of the Harbor was very narrow. And just As we were approaching the narrow neck a voice came Over the ships Loudspeaker a a port Side attention a the sailors All snapped upright and i with them facing shoreward. And there at the Harbor Mouth on the Fiat roof of a bomb shattered customs building stood a i bombers crossed nod Quaid of Honor British tar headed for Sicily and american Hon pm or Lotc i our guard Wal t Les but this one was genuine so deadly True so old in tradition so vital with realism that you could not control the Tensed Cord in your Throat and you Felt deeply proud. We sailed on past the Stone breakwater with the Waves dealing against it and out onto the dark Blue of the Mediterranean where wind wits freshening and a Mist began to form on the watery horizon. And there far beyond us we suddenly were aware of a scene that will shake me every time i think 01 it for tile rest of my life. It was our invasion Fleet formed there i a at sea and waiting for us. A Sii in Streu n be a there is no Way of conveying to you the enormity of that Fleet i can say Only that on the  it resembled a Distant City it overed half the Skyline and the Dull coloured camouflaged ships stood indistinctly against Hie curve of the dark water As a solid formation of uncountable structures blending solidly together. Even to be a part of it night a cuing i Hope no american Ever has to see its counterpart sailing against us. We caught up with the Fleet. End in the remaining hours of Daylight worked it slowly Forward. Our ship and other command ships raced around herding our broods into proper formations signalling by Flag and signal Light shooing and instructing and ordering until this ship strewn sea began to break into Small globules and take course in their right manner. We on Board stood at tile rails and wondered How much Trie gel mans knew of us. Surely a Force of this immensity could not be concealed. Reconnaissance planes could not possibly miss us Axis agents on Shore had but to look through their binoculars to see the Start of the greatest Armada Ever assembled in the history of hic world. Allied planes flew in formation far above us almost out of sight. Great Graceful cruisers and wicked new destroyers raced on our perimeter to protect us. Just at dusk a whole squad of vicious Jit tie it boats�?18 of them their i engines roaring in one giant combination like a Force of heavy our Bow and s that ?j61 pm Quot a am la sight see no the Allied officers club is now open Al hotel Alette applications for membership will be received Only Turin the following hours la to am in i 30 pm 5 of pm in 7 30 pm american merchant Seaman a club Many facilities Are afforded the merchant Seaman.
