Armed Forces Day
Draws Big Crowd
More than 2,000 people visited
the Naval Station Saturday on
Armed Forces Day and saw the
Navy, Marines, Air Force and
Coast Guard displays, developing
the theme “Power For Peace.”
Weather was a contributing fact
or, bringing people out by cars and
buses throughout the day. A con
tinuous throng of men, women and
children visited the displays in
Hangar One, where the various
branches of the service offered ex
hibits of equipment used by the
members of the armed forces sta
tioned here. These included dis
plays by the Coast Guard of equip
ment used in rescue work, Marines,
two Air Force jets, displays by
Weather Central, Supply Depart

ested spectators. The Link Trainer
plane, on display by the Operations
Department, proved the most popu
lar with the small fry, who were
lined up for short rides throughout
the day.
