Halloween spirit aboard Sumner (11/3)


Seafarers aboard the USNS Sumner got into the Halloween atmosphere with a breakfast menu featuring eyes to order, steamed spider legs and grilled bat, among other, um, delicacies. The descriptions, of course, were tongue-in-cheek, but the actual food proved tasty as usual. Pictured aboard the vessel are (from left) OS Ray Roldan, GVA Dom Dalmacio, Chief Cook George Creekmore, Chief Steward Wanda Glinke and GVA Jim Hurtt. Not pictured is GVA Frank Cacayuran. (The chief steward swears that isn’t Brother Frank’s head on the platter.) Thanks to Sumner Master Fred Smallwood for forwarding the photo, taken while on survey operations in the East China Sea.
