Italy Keeps Navy Pride Yet Pre-War in Spirit
Italy's postwar fleet is reduced to 46 vessels from prewar totals, with three new battleships sent to Allies if disposal terms agree. The remnant ships recently trained at sea, drawing thousands of visitors at port. A luncheon aboard Giuseppe Garibaldi for U S Mediterranean Fleet was funded by meager pay, reflecting frugal naval life. Sailors endure monotony in food, pay, and rationing, while officers, though admiring American power, uphold monarchist views and rely on radar nicknamed the magic eye.
