trips to Italy before, our daughter, who was about 10 years, twisting his ankle and had to travel in on crutches. When we arrived in Naples, my wife thought it would be better if it were my daughter and spend some time in Germany with their parents. The trip to Germany was on the train, and we had quite an adventure. My daughter is very limited capacity to manage because of its being on crutches. Having the train that I have the suitcases in the carThen we climbed to the seats for my family. A few cars later, we had seats available, but has never gone back to many pieces of luggage to move. Only about half of the trip we stopped near the Swiss border. It seemed at the station for a while 'and look at random from the window and saw our luggage on the definition of the platform. The end of the train was gone, and they took our luggage and onto the platform. I quickly recoveredluggage and we continued our journey.
I went back to Naples from me and started looking for accommodation. The local office of housing had been contacted Italian Navy, acting in our name and a place to live us. I chose the area Lucrino. This area was about 10 miles north of Naples is located, and even though I knew it was time for the Italian area of summer vacation. I rented the 2nd story of an Italian villa by the sea. I am sorry, I do not remember the nameThe Italian, who helped us find the house and also helped us with our entry had been received and installed a transformer to change the incoming power lines, half circles in the 220-110 volt House helped. Who helped us with our appliances. It also has all the interfaces with the owner and helped us a lot. The Navy has for the transportation of household goods and a car when a military member is assigned abroad. We knew it would not move inarea of government in Italy, while we were still in Key West.
The large unit, we felt it appropriate to meet us was a refrigerator. My wife and I went shopping in Key West and bought a large fridge used. It 'been a spectacle of an Italian with a refrigerator tied to see the back of the refrigerator to bring up the stairs. The only problem was that if any such damage, has filed the engine. The moving company took the fridge to get it fixed and we ended upreceives a new engine from 220 volts. All in all turned out very well and the fridge was a good place for resale, if we leave Italy. The Navy has also allowed us, Sears, a living room couch and chairs from Italy and have it delivered. I believe that the military always provided excellent support of our international assignments. Our life in Italy was very good. We could feed the military police and the local Italian market has provided a good dealFood. We also had an Italian who runs every day with fresh fruit and vegetables. Our villa was very comfortable and we had only the landlord who live below a couple of times a year. driving conditions were good most of the year, but during the summer months it was pretty hectic.
There were also about 10 other military families in the area so the social life was also very good. The fact that my wife is able to visit his family at least once a year it was very nice as well. Our car, a Dodge RoyalLancer was not up to travel back and forth to Germany. I could sell and buy a used Cadillac from a military officer, that Italy was retired. I have it for a good price because she could not afford to keep and have the taxes on cars for the Italian Government to pay. If we went to the trip was very comfortable. The only problem I had with the first day my wife had driven Cadillac and parked on the street outside the clinic. An Italian drivermanaged to run the back of the Cadillac and back breaking clear plastic cover to slide his fingers through his Fender. No damage to the Cadillac! While I was stationed in Italy have been involved with the secret services. This meant that my future work would be with a nucleus of a few individuals instead of the regular Navy. I remember a letter to be sent to my new job applicant section on my next duty assignment is in the north-east or north-western United States. MyWriting for me has been returned to Seattle, Washington wrote about it. No other comment. When my order arrived, I was assigned to the Naval Investigative Office in Seattle, Washington. Duty in the great Northwest! This will be the subject of my next article.
