It is the Marsh brothers birthday in September
1952. The galley baked a cake for the occasion. Ron and Don Marsh are on
either side of the cake while Don Ayers poses between the two in the back
row.

Henry Crockett seen here on Nootka`s upper deck
circa 1951, was one of the ship's most memorable characters. Here,
he is posing while wearing a US Army helmet. Crockett left the R.C.N. and
went on to Merchant Navy, worked up to Ships Master, joined the Canadian
Coast Guard and worked with Admiral Storrs. Crockett commanded Cutters
and an Icebreaker and because he was also an aeronautical pilot, he took
command of the Coast Guard's first Hovercraft. Crockett was also
a hard hat diver but is now retired in Saint John, New Brunswick as a Harbour
Pilot. (Photo and copy provided by Jerry Sullivan).
