Title: USS Boston (CAG-1)
Description: 'Friendship Lights' aboard Boston cast a glow on the waters of the Bay of Naples during CAG-1's October 3-10 visit to 'Bella Napoli'. A tradition among the ships of the Sixth Fleet, the lights symbolize the peaceful intent of the Fleet's mission in the Mediterranean Sea. (quoted from the original photo caption). The original print is undated, but was taken during the mid-1960s. Official U.S. Navy Photograph, from the collections of the Naval History and Heritage Command.
