330-PS-6215 (USN 709019):    Any tour of San Juan, Puerto Rico, would be incomplete without a visit to the historic El Morro fortress, which stands guard over the entrance to San Juan Bay, as it did when this harbor was a haven for the Spanish galleons sailing between Panama and Seville.  The sailors view the entrance to San Juan Harbor from the main ramparts of El Morro.  The fort was actually invaded only once.   In 1598, the Earl of Cumberland landed a large force of men below San Jan and after a costly battle took both the city and the fort.  From these walls in 1593, the Spaniards defeated Sir Francis Drake and his force of 27 ships and 2,500 men.   Left to right:  HM2 Eileen Paluzzi; HM2 Joseph D. LaFreniere; HM3 Marie A.
