  Scarce one tall frigate walks the sea Or skirts the safer shores Of all that bore to victory Our stout old Commodores. So wrote Oliver Wendell Holmes in 1865. Many years have passed since then. Again a tall frigate walks the sea. She carries a message from many a stout old commodore, many an alert topman, many a keen-eyed gunner. In fact, she carries a message from our Navy to our People.
