French Navy Ship Visits Brooklyn.

The French missile tracking ship Monge, named for the 18th-19th century mathematician Gaspard Monge, is docked at Pier 7 near Columbia Street just south of Atlantic Avenue. Need to brush up on conversational French? Drop in to Montero’s or other Atlantic Avenue watering holes this weekend.

    I played bocce with some of the officers from this ship last night at Floyd. They were extremely nice, spoke passable english and were playing in their dress uniforms which I thought was a hoot.

    Fraternite!
