 | | The Admiralty Board, who were accompanied by Vice Admiral Sir Geoffrey Blake, liaison flag officer to the United States Naval Forces in Europe, and Admiral Sir Geoffrey Layton, Commander-in-Chief, Portsmouth, were received by Admiral H. Kent Hewett, commanding the United States Naval Forces in Europe. |
 | | That emblem was first adopted in 1570, and Lord Howard of Effingham flew its streamer from the foretop in the fight against the Spanish Armada. |
 | | The Board of the Admiralty would be proud if you would accept the gift of this flag to Enterprise as a token of respect for her gallant record, and as a sincere tribute from a great and historic Navy to the prowess of the comrades-in-arms in the United States fleet. |
