Mt. Fuji-san YOKOSUKA Yokosuka, Japan was the BRAINE ' s homeport in the Far East. On three different occasions we spent from one to two weeks here. These periods were for upkeep and repair of the ship in between heavy- operating periods, and to provide a bit of relaxation for the crew. The large naval base there offered many kinds of recreational facilities and a ship ' s store where bargains in chinaware, stemware, pearls, and silk were tremendous. A 3 magazine was needed to stow the many articles bought by the crew, a total of $13,000 worth. The town of Yokosuka also offered many types of recreation. A successful ship ' s party was held there in June. Black market alley was always interesting and a challenge to one ' s bargaining ability. Many journeyed to nearby Kamakura to see the great Buddha, or even farther to Tokyo or Mt. Fuji. The qreat Buddha, Daibutzu, at Kamakura Yokosuka Harbor 18
