AD31 Cooks baked them a cake (actually several)

Fred Lewis, OM2, served aboard the Tidewater in the mid Fifties and sent us a few of his photos from the family album. Here's what he says about the occasion above:

I served in the Optical Shop along with my twin brother, Glenn. We served from March of 1953 until January of 1957.

Glenn and I were the pointers for mounts 43 and 44. We sighted and fired the twin 44’s. While we were operating out of GITMO one time we both hit the sleeve, so the Captain had the cooks bake us cakes.

I, along with my ship mates, really appreciate what you are doing to keep these memories alive. I love the website and visit it often.
