Of social life throughout the Navy.
The u. S. Navy now uses more cof-
fee per man than any other or
ganization in the world The
trim, clean cut, educated young APP
prentice seaman Of today offers a
striking contrast to the rollicking,
drinking sailor of days gone by,
and so long perpetuated by the
stage and screen Na1l-biters are
rejected by the Navy. Simply be-
cause nail-biting shows you're jit-
terry, and experience has shown that
people like that get hysterical when
the big guns roar The fleet
doesn't want men who think little
discipline will do them good. They
want men who will be useful to
the Navy, rather than a navy that
will be useful to men The Adj
miral does not wear the most re-
splendent uniform; his aides do.
Movies are taken of plane land
ings on ship. In case there is bad
landing, flyers will see the errors

read detective stories, mystery
yarns, Western stories. Practically
everything except stories of the
sea Ironically enough, during
the past six years auto accidents
have been the leading cause of ac-
cidental deaths in the entire Navyi

It's just movie bunk that you

rank first in the world. In fight
ing ability our Navy Is, and ever
was, second to none.
Apprentice seamen spend about
yeaH and a half on land training
before they go to sea. A
sailors uniform is practically his
biography. Every bit of tape, braid
and embroidery has meaning all
it's own. 1t reveals how long the
wearer has been in the Navy, his
branch of service, the pay he his
receiving and certain individual dis
tinctions he has earned Sailors
don't pay tax for ciggies, they pay
only six or seven cents pack. How
ever, they must not carry any to-
bacco ashore Liquor is banned

plenty of ice cream, sodas and other
sweets Join the Navy and see
the movies-they're shown on board
almost every evening Sailors
don't like to be referred to as gobs,
and they know you're landlubber
when you call man-of-war a boat.
Sailors call it ship or vessel.
The mortality tables show that
the American sailor is the healthiest
man of any navy in the world, and
the hardest man to kill in any navy
in the world.
Tradition says that the custom of
having buttons on the cuff of the
naval uniform originated from the
whim of an old commodore who
had them put on the cuffs of mid
shipmen to keep them from wiping
their noses on the sleeves.
American battleships are given
the names of states; cruisers, the
names of principal cities; aircraft
carriers, the names of historic bat
ties or vessels; destroyers are named
for famous men.
No United States man-of-War has
ever mutinied or been in the hands
of mutineers, while in other Navies
whole squadrons and fleets have
mutinied.
In our naval annals we find heroic
traditions second to none, traditions
that bespeak the iron will of Sur

begun to fight; that reflect the
fighting spirit of Don't give up the
ship!" and the preparation anc
planning implied by I'VE are ready
now!" Their preservation and per-
petuation rest with officers of the
Navy.
Some of the most treasured Navy
stories concern requests for extend
ing leave and the captains answer
Like the sailor who wired his cap
tain that he'was about to become
a father; could he extend his leave
until his child was born? To
which the captain replied: while
the captain can understand why
your presence might be necessary at
the laying of the keel, he sees no
reason why you should be present
at the launchingp'

The Duchess Of Bedford, charm
ing lady, was unwittingly respon-
Sible for the choice Of blue and
white as the colors for the uniforms
Of the Royal Navy, and in turn
our. Navy. George III, adniring a
blue and white riding habit worn
by the Duchess, ordered British
naval uniforms to be of those hues
and we copied. \
The United States Navy has had
but four fleet actions, put in each
one it captured and destroyed every
enemy ship.
The breaking Of a bottle when a
ship Is launched originated with the
practice of drinking prosperity to
the ship out of a silver cup, which
was then thrown overheard.
No American naval officer has
ever had anything to do with the
bringing on of war. On the con-
trary the patient diplomacy of
naval officers has more than once
averted armed conflict.
Tradition records that Captain
John Paul Jones was presented a
Flag for the RANGER that had
been made from the best silk gowns
of the ladies of Portsmouth, New
Hampshire. Jones furnished the
specifications, and it is recorded
that the work was done at a quilt
ing party. The white stars were cut
from the bridal dress Of one Helen
Seary.
