A large bouquet of thanks goes to the United States
Embassy wives for the recent delightful afternoon many
“0” wives spent as their guests in Reykjavik.
The ladies were first entertained by Mrs. James K. Pen-
field and then proceeded to the different homes of the
Embassy wives for most delicious luncheons.
A visit to the shop of an Ice-^L
landic sculptor completed the af-
ternoon, after which everyone re-
turned to the Keflavik Airport
with still another interesting ex-
perience to be remembered.
As chairman of the flower
planting committee, I would like
to express a “well done” to the
many helpers who worked so hard
planting flowers to bring a little,
spring brightness to our base.
Special thanks go to Ollie De-
vaney, without whose help this
correspondent could not have pur-
chased the flowers; to LCdr
Richard Galvez for recruiting la-
bor, a most necessary item, and
last but not least to Lt Edward H.
Hubei, who was invaluable in co-
ordinating this project between
the Wives Club and Public Works.
Thanks also go to Don Have-
land, Dan Linehan, Maynard
Hamilton, Paul Bird, Kit and Dick
James, June Sampson, Irma Moke,
Joe Haines, Neal Colvin, Virginia
Hedges, Bob Peck and five young
eager helpers, Freddie Snow,
Mark Watson, Stephen Hedges,
Moria Sullivan and Dickie Have-
land.
We sincerely hope that the
flowers will be enjoyed this year
as much as they were previously.

And if anyone feels the urge to
“get near the good earth,” there
is a tool box in the rear of the
Officers’ Club. Any help in weed-
ing and keeping the beds in good
shape will be appreciated.
Don’t forget the monthly Hail
and Bless coffee on Tuesday, June
8, at 10 a.m. There should be many
newcomers, so let’s have a big
turnout to welcome the new club
members to Iceland.
At 2:05 each weekday, you will
hear “Our Musical Heritage,” re-
placing “Semi-Pops Concert.” Don
Heitgerd is host and emcee on the
show and will feature music of
Rousell, Berlioz, Chausson and
Respighi.
Also, for the sports fans, a new
show, “Sportscope,” will follow the
Final Edition News at 11:15 each
weeknight.

the supply officer, as the “Bull Ensign” of U.S. Naval
Communication Station (NavCommSta), Keflavik, Iceland.
The ceremonies were held May 21 at NavCommSta’s Ad-
ministration Building (839) Quarterdeck.

Naval Communication Station,
Keflavik, lectured Ensign Lewis
on the duties of this time honored
office. The captain also presented
Ensign Lewis the following certi-
ficate as a permanent reminder
of his responsibilities:
“Be it known to all:
“The bearer of this writ shall be
hight “The Bull Ensign.”
“All persons are to pay due ven-
eration to this paragon of nauti-
cal sapience—this leonine grand
sachem of the neophyte officers
corps; juniors will pay heed to
his every behest and practice no
chicanery, surreptitious vituper-
ation or ominous gesticulations
that would in any incur reproach,
defamation or corruption on this
awe-inspiring, grandoise indivi-
dual.”
The writ in the common lay-
man’s terms stated that as “Bull
Ensign,” Ensign Lewis demanded
respect as the senior ensign of
NavCommSta. And that his sub-
ordinates, junior officers and
enlisteds, alike, will respect his
new position and obey him acc-
ordingly.
Besides being the reigning “Bull
Ensign” at Nav CommSta, Ensign
Lewis’ regular duty is as com-
munication watch officer.
