So it was when we finally came to be dock- ed in Sasebo that marine growth, barnaoles and seaweed, had oov- ered the entire hull underwater. Removing it was quite a job! The eager workers soon had the growth off, however, and in no time at all, we were ready to leave again, our sleek new paint glinting in the rain. When the big day came, we all watched with interest as the cascades of water rushed in to float us free. The giant gates opened and CAMP was ready to sail onoe more.

WITH BUSY STREETS EOR LIBERTY A mix of old and new, Sasebo's streets were a never ending pageant of people and places. Family elders, clad in traditional kimonos, mingled with mod youngsters decked in the latest fashions. Varnished store fronts stood next to bril- liant chromium palaces and through it all the carefree, pellmell Japanese traffic hurtled endlessly. This was a place that would never bore you, although, 'in glimpses of slow charcoal fires and tiny flimsy cottages, you just might imagine what it would be like to be lonely here, alone with forty centuries.
