In an article originally published in Newsday, Bill Bleyer introduces Greg Marshall as the new Superintendent of Sagamore Hill National Historic Site. Bleyer reviews Marshall’s career in parks and planning, and he notes that Marshall will be tasked with implementing Sagamore Hill’s first master plan which will involve changes to some of the site’s buildings and roads. A text box with information about the Theodore Roosevelt Association and listing its leadership appears next to the article.

Bill Bleyer describes a day in the life of the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt during one of its shakedown cruises in March 1987. Bleyer follows the actions of the ship and her crew from 6:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. He visits a variety of stations and areas on the carrier and quotes officers and enlisted men about their duties and conditions onboard the ship. Bleyer highlights the visit to the carrier of Theodore Roosevelt IV, a great-grandson of Theodore Roosevelt, and a Navy veteran.

Two photographs of F-18 Hornet fighter planes preparing for launch from the carrier illustrate the article along with a photograph of Theodore Roosevelt IV with two members of the ship’s crew after his flight. A listing of the officers of the Theodore Roosevelt Association also appears in the article.
