PARTY AT PEARL!
Commodore Stuart Mayer, left, of the Royal Australian Navy, welcomed U.S. Adm. Patrick Walsh and Australian Consul-General David Binns to the Australian RIMPAC reception aboard the HMAS Kanimbla June 29 at Pearl Harbor. Fried kangaroo-on-a-stick was so popular that a crowd gathered at the "barbie" and ate as fast as the chef could cook (a spokesman said "roos" and "crocs" aren't endangered Down Under).
