WHO WANTS A TRANSFER??

San Diego (AFPS)- Something new has been added to the Long Beach-based destroyer tender Frontier-and it's not a missile.

It's a second mess line.

Here are the details as they were recently proposed in several plans of the day.

"A new system will take effect in your General Mess. Two lines will be used. The starboard line will continue to serve the regular menu as posted weekly. The port line will serve frankfurters, hamburgers, potato chips and rolls at all meals.

"The salad and dessert bar will be available to all hands. Complete self-service will be in effect, but you will be required to eat all that you place on your tray. The procedure will be in effect at all noon and evening meals."
