At 1000 this morning, a church service was conducted in the hanger and then at 1500, the traditional Sunday barbecue was served in the hanger.  Cadets and crew enjoyed brisket, chicken, hamburger, corn, beans, and ice cream with cake.  The food was outstanding.  Unfortunately, the weather has not been good and everyone had to eat inside.  It was cloudy, cold and the ship was rolling moderately.

At 1800, a double feature was shown in the hanger where cadets relaxed and ate popcorn as they watched the movies.
