The afternoon of September 24, 194 5, will l0I1g bfi 1' Cl'HCmbCI'Cd bv the crew of the Kenton, for it was at that time the Mighty K steamed into Yokohama, japan, and gave us a Hrst glimpse of the country we had been battling for so many long months. One of the P boat crews celebrated the auspicious occasion by cruising over to a lighthouse in the harbor and painting the name of the Kenton across its side for all future visitors of that land to see. Five days were spent in the Yokohama-Tokyo area,and during that time all hands had the opportunity of seeing the tremendous damage wrought by the Air Force and Navy of Uncle Sam. Much time, too, was spent in bargaining with the natives-swap- ping cigarettes and candy for fans, kimonos and other souvenirs. lt wasa notable trip, and during the course of it the Kenton estab- lished two firsts. lt brought the first European troops into Japan for occupational purposes, and returned home the first unit of Pacific hghters relieved from duty.
