I was pleased to see the picture of U.S.S. City of Lewes in the Nov. 21 issue of the Cape Gazette. The caption highlighted the role of Lewes-based ships and sailors in World War I at home and abroad. If readers want to know more about that often forgotten chapter in Lewes and naval history, they can find it in "A Century of Service: The U.S. Navy on Cape Henlopen; 1896-1996,” which is available via cedartreebooks.com.
