Wilhelmshaven Sailing Club - Jun54.   There was a sailing club that operated in the inner harbour at Wilhelmshaven.   I guess this was paid for by the PSI organization. If you could get weekend passes it was worth joining the club.   There was a problem here for some of the technical types because there had to be a nucleus of people available to open the airfield in an emergency so membership seemed to be dominated by the 8 to 5 people.   Wilbur wasn't well disposed to signing 295s ad-lib so the sailing club never got onto my agenda.   However I did manage to join a conducted tour and took a few pictures as we cruised round the harbour in a large motor boat.   (Thanks to Dick Endecott)
