JAPAN On the eighth of December, the Epperson, a member of ASW fanti-submarine warfarey Group One, sailed into Yokosuka Bay to relieve the USS Cochrane QDDG-Zlj. While the ship was tied up along- side the pier, the yard workers accomplished a complete overhaul of our evaporators. The Ship Repair Facility came into being over a century ago and spawned a massive Japanese fleet. lt was important enough to be a primary target of the dramatic 1942 Halsey-Doolittle raid. It is now a vital base for the United States Seventh Fleet, the world's largest, and home to- three thousand serv- ice and civilian personnel. Six thousand Japanese are also employed there. The crew, knowing that our next mission would take us to Yankee Station fo-r 45 days, took full advantage of their liberty hours. Some went to the Navy Exchange to buy cameras, tape recorders and radios. An excellent selection of low priced merchandise was available. Some went to the EM. Club for relaxation, but the majority of the men went into town where the action wasg drinking, girls, danc- ing, girls, and more girls. The people of Japan are among the friendliest with which Epperson sailors have associated. The people in Yoko are friendly because they live and work with Naval Personnel. I The citizens of Tokyo are friendly in a different way. To them the sailor on liberty is someone 1nterested in seeing their country and learning of their way of life. In return they seek information about the people of America. On the eleventh of December we left Yokosuka and headed south. Many felt that they 'would never forget the good times they had in Japan. , l 51 ' -.' , 5? ..f 'J gifs A ,lg , k sa i
