every man in the navy IS a hero This
war has demonstrated that the navy
has been most bitterly maligned We
/ have heard that this vessel was a
floating graveyard and that that one
would go down with a single shot. IL
was said the Texas was a useless hulk;
but from all accounts, she made use
less hulks' out of some pretty good
Spanish ships. The navy viii now be
a more important factor tnau ever be-
fore. It must be expanded greatly.

protect all the islands which Captain

Chaplain r. Jay Greene of the local

obey orders, whether in camp or in
