Jig' A .3 . we make infrequent jaunts to Sasebo from Korea....to replenish stores and to set foot ashore for a brief hour in the liberty-lanes of Sasebo.... on cur return to Korea, we sit in the humid sunshine of Pusan harbor in August and wait for the liberty curfew to be lifted. Hrrancis the Talking Mulen, along with his guiding light Cliff Rogerson, and a group of comic- strip artists, come aboard....part of a USO show touring Korea....we are entertained with jokes, charcoal drawings, and caricatures of ourselves by the fourso e. When the liberty ban is lifted .... we go ashore in Pusan and visit the 'barn-like' corrugated beer hall....and enjoy the tasteless beer in this land of war and peace.

On one of our treks to Sasebo, our flagship has acquired a mascot - a Japanese dog, or rather, puppy. He is seen strolling, quarterdeck to forecastle, at most any hour of the day or night ....he readily takes to this life at sea. And then one day, we find that he is nameless .... and as this will never do .... we rack our brains .... in the end .... he's called just plain 'Jug'. we move to the southermost port of Japan, Kagoshima, a city seldom visited by a Navy ship .... and we chance to gain a rare insight of the unchanged traditions of Japan. As our ship anchors with a hackdrop of lofty Sakurajima volcano, we take along Japanese-English phrase books to aid in ou quests of the city. 1
