At Sea


IT WAS THIS GUN THAT FIRED THE FIRST SHELL ON THE COAST WHEN THE HELENA HAD RETURNED TO KOREA.
ON HER FIRST DUTIES OF WAR PATROL LAST YEAR SHE HAD PROUDLY EARNED A NICK NAME GIVEN TO HER BY THE ENEMY.
THAT NAME IMPLIED THAT THE FIRE AND FEAR THAT HER WAR POWER COULD PRODUCE WAS NOT PRODUCED IN VAIN.
THAT THE EFFORTS AND WORK OF EVERY MAN IN HER CREW WAS WELL REGISTERED IN THE MINDS OF HER ENEMY.
NOW, THE HELENA HAS RETURNED AND WITH HER, A CREW DETERMINED IN WORK AND IN SPIRIT TO LIVE UP TO
HER PROUD RECORD AS A FIGHTING VESSEL.
