KEELUNG Y FIVE SHORT BLASTS ' Now on the Epperson, set the special sea and y anchor detail. What happened? VVhy is everybody running to and fro? Are we leaving port or moving to an- 5 other berth? FIVE SHORT BLASTS q Negative! Apparently a combination of stormy weather and the hasty departure of a merchant ship caused our anchor to break loose. Look! We're drifting towards the Ru Ta. Don't panic. Hey, sailor, tie two rubber tires together with a piece of line. Hurry! You, get that hand fender over. Now get these tires over, too. Fast! s 1 What are you meatheads doing with those cameras at a time like this? Qin unisonj We're taking 1 pictures for the cruise book. 7, Here's the latest, sir: two tugs are on the way to provide assistance. However, it looks as if are go- ing to bump the Ru Ta. Very well. The situation seems to be well in hand. , . TRANSLATION Honorable father, why are there .many of our people standing on this pier looking at the grey ship? That ship, Wong Lee, is the American destroyer, USS Epperson. It probably has returned from a patrol of the waters where your honorable grandfather casts his fishing nets. The Epperson sails the Formo- sa Straits to prevent an invasion by our enemies on the mainland. What is the ship doing here? . , The Epperson crew is here to relax. Sailors will enjoy themselves in the Keelung bars, take pictures of our country, or perhaps journey to Taipei. Look! Many sailors are wearing clean white uniforms. Yes, my son. I believe the captain of the ship is going to conduct an inspection of his men. The American sailor is known for his neat appearance. More of our people are here to look at the ship. Yes, Wong Lee. Our countrymen are here not only to look at a truly beautiful ship but to express their humble thanks for what America is doing for us. Is the United States Navy a strong navy, father? This is so, my son.
