Our next port is Sasebo, which is on the western side of Kyushu, a southern island of Japan. The en- trance to the harbor is narrow, crammed with many small islands, and always full of Japanese fishing craft. Consequently the Officer-of-the-Deck, and his watch, must be extremely vigilant. Upon arriving, we were welcomed by one of Sasebo's very rare snow storms. Sasebo being one of the busier ports for supply operations, the Supply office personnel often feel like the above picture depicts. However, the DIPHDA's Supply Department has achieved an outstanding record in Fleet Issue operations.

Our arrival was greeted by many Chinese iunks and upon tying up to the buoy, our gangway was jammed with Chinese mer- chants clamoring to come aboard. One ot the more interesting ot the solicitors was Mary-Soo, who offers to paint the entire ship in repayment for any garbage, old line, and bits ot canvas. She drives a hard bargain with the ship's Bos'n and after negotiations brings her crew of thirty to titty and sets them to work. Mary-Soo got a glimpse ot American know-how upon seeing the- ship's paint-rollers, and was fascinated by them to the extent that she was willing to offer half her qUeendom to acquire some.
