I. COOPERATION WITH THE ALLIED NAVIES IN GENERAL.

[Sidenote: Varied character of Naval activities.]
It could hardly have been foreseen to what extent United States naval
activities in Europe would accumulate, and it is a fact that it has been
a growth by accretion rather than by system. The resultant fact is that
the supervision of the commander of United States Naval Forces in Europe
is of great and varied scope and continues to increase from week to
week. Despite this great extent and varied character of our naval
activities in Europe (as evidenced by the list given in par. 2 above)
and the fact that their growth by accretion has made a highly
centralized control more or less inevitable, the results speak for
themselves--all of our naval activities are cooperative in character and
all of them give every evidence of performing useful and appreciated
work wherever found.
