REASON FOR PLANE GUARD DETAIL

Every time the VALLEY FORGE launched or recovered aircraft a destroyer WllS designated to take piMe guard. In case a plane cracked up, the plone guard was 'n pos•\lon to pick up the pilot.

These pictures were taken when we were oper<'!ting at Pearl Har­bor. A plane had rust cracked up and the pilot was '•n the drink." At upper left, we have the life raft alo11gside. Upper right, getting the pilot llboard which can be at times a very dan~erous JOb. Lower left. •t's on to s,,. Bay for the wet pilot. Lower tight, a shot of the two cakes sent to the THOMAS by the VALLEY FORGE for the rescurng of the pilot.

o"UR CHRISTMAS TREE, 1947

" - - CROSSING

The ceremony attendant upon sh1ps cross1ng the Equator, kn, wn as crossing the line, 1s so ancient that it has been a port of !ea lore since the days of the early V1kings. Wh1le men have long ceased to believe in the existence of Neptune, the mytholog1cal god of the seas, they still perform the ceremon1es of propitiation to His Matesty, the King of the Deep. This IS one occas1on when the whole ship's company is vitally Interested and willingly parbc1pates , Those who have crossed the line are worthy "shellbacks' and the rest are lowly pollywogs. It is the pleasant duty of the shellbocks to 1n1bate the pollywogs m thP 1nysteries of the underwcster doma1n of Neptunus Rex.

The Royal Works are given by the shellbacks, who are dressed h• represent King Neptune and H1s Royal Court. While these damp vigorous boisterous and wholesome ceremonies are enough to make the condido te sh1ver and quake men are willing to undergo the d1s · comfort, knowing that they will not be on the receiVIng end the next bme the line is crossed and the lrodition is carried on. As Capta•n Hall wrote one hundred years ago. ' Its evil •s transient, if any evil there be; wh,fe 1t certainly affords Jack a topic for a month beforehand and fort· mght ofterwards .... "

Many of the new· born shell backs on our good ship LLOYD THOMAS may not know the meanmg of a fortnight, but all of them w1ll long remember the day of the crossing of the line.

CROSSII'-JG THE LINE Now li~ten, my ch1ldren, and you shall hear

Of crossing the line by your father dear. Twas eleven /\.M., and strange to say

The weather was cold on the fateful day

The LLOYD THOMAS of the Destroyer Fleet Neptunus R,ex and h1s court drd meet

The Pollywogs, one twenty strong, Were formed 1n l1ne-a half m1le long­

To appear bdore the JUdge appo1nted And have the1r heads w1th fuel oil anointed.

Each one was !liven a bitter pill Designed to make the stomach ill,

Then neatly flipped into a tank, And as bent:ath the brine he sank

Shellbacks from along the roil Swung lusty paddles on his tail.

Then out of thE: tonk and through a line As shellback paddles caressed the spine,

To fall at last c1mong the mobs Of new Shellbacks-none Pollywogs.

Aint it grand ,,nd glorious feeling? Like slipping on a banana peeling.

It was so bad that it was very dtHtcu t to recover the aircrah that had been launched. However the Crown Prtnce had a good bme.
