TOK O ailors made the extra effort to see Tokyo when ST. LOUIS pulled into Yokosuka or Yokohama through- out the year. Some went by way of toured visits, seeing the most photographed green brass Buddha in the world, the Meiji Temple and other shrines, the Emperofs palace and garden. Others with less formal visits in mind, used the north - bound train to Tokyo, their trips included some of the best- known tavern districts in the city. We found Chinatown in Yoko- hama, too, and a selected group viewed Japanese baseball at the stadium near there. We remember Tokyo and Tokyo Wan for Mount Fuji on a clear day giant, majestic, regal overseeing its country's goings- on from the distance. Photos Cclockwise from bottomb: 1. The Nlikasa's guns exceeded the size of those on the JERSEY. 2. The Japanese play a good game of baseball though the games are usually better attended. 3. We' ve seen more than enough temples in our Japanese tours. 4. A familiar friend in Tokyo. 5. Dark, evil face of a samurai warrior - ..Q.1 ,-- 1-5-f , T . . ,. 1 -U .

S fxsiseo ' e lilie it here, -1 K Q Sailors treat Sasebo differently than Vwl-M-1. they do the Pusans, the Olongapos, i W if I L the Phattayas. Sasebes where we sit back ' 3 l . ' and relax on liberty, were not interested in '- -r . the glitter and neon lights here. lt's home. 1 '5' T Sasebe is home. Home, because weve 1TIk2..i: ! Q come to know the people in the shops and the bars, like we know the people of our own stateside hometowns. Sailors are treated with a feeling of belongingness in Sasebo. For many, Sasebo is home because of wives and children, the intregral parts of our lives who we see so rarely. Family time is precious when we re in Sasebo. Sasebo is a tine homeport. l.et's com- pare.. Theres San Diego, but some say its too large a city 3 it contains the eyesores that one associates with big-city living. Theres also Yokosuka, large, and maybe too many sailors competing for too little space. So theres Sasebo. The Kyushu people treat us well here. We find time to do things here that we don't do anywhere else. ln the warm months, sailors can be seen with softballs, tootballs and soccer balls in Nimitz Park. Throughout the year, theres basketball and racquetball. Sailors attend and participate in boxing smokers, sumo tour- naments, billiards, martial arts. ln town, sailors ice skate and bowl, and we tind time to take fishing trips and sail and camp. We remember Sasebo for many of the sights and entertainments, and for the friends weve made here. HQTVJ T .ir r is -s X -.V 'H if .,t .r .ia-4 ' f ' 5 -.
