Gerald Remer expects to leave for New York Tuesday. Gerry will report back to the battleship “Texas” the latter part of this month, which is a present stationed at Norfolk, Va. This spring in early June the crew of the Texas will make a European tour as hosts to the midshipman class of Annapolis. The crew will be allowed several days leave at Paris and London, and will visit other cities of France, England, Ireland, Sweden, and Holland. Gerry has two years left of his Navy “hitch.”
