PEACE IN THE GULF. During the first Gulf War.
In August the world witnessed an important breakthrough with the announcement of the cease fire between Iraq and Iran. It is begin-
ning to look as if peace is finally coming to the Persian Gulf. If all goes well, we can look forward to smooth sailing in those waters in
the future. In the picture at the right you can see the Esso Atlantic under escort of the British H.M.S.Scylla as part of the Armilla
patrol sailing through the Arabian Gulf before the cease fire was declared. Though we appreciate the protection we receive, we
certainly hope that these pictures will become a thing of the past.
