USS HELENA THE MACHINE-GUN CRUISER by Ray J. Casten. ISBN: 1-59453-891-3
USS Helena CA-75. 1956 in OL Division - 1957 in Whiskey Division.
I made WestPac cruises in 1956 and 1957, and in this short book I describe what life was like aboard ship,
the work, the play, the chow, the pranks, and the ports of call.
It is a short fun read, and should be of interest to anyone that would like to know what the U.S. Navy was like half a century ago.
