U. S. S. Razorback ln early July MORTON dunked 5 khaki-clad U. S. Army Colonels in the salty blue. The Colonels were officers of the Staff of Com- mander, U. S. Forces Japan and Commander U. S. Army Forces Japan who were on an indoctrination tour of forces of the U. S. SEVENTH Fleet. They arrived on MORTON by highline at sea after having been flown from Tokyo to the carrier MIDWAY. The MORTON in turn sent the officers to the SEVENTH Fleet submarine U. S. S. RAZORBACK. The seas were too rough for a normal boat transfer, so the Colonels were embarked in a l5-man rubber raft along with a crew of MORTON'S paddlers. These MORTON men, under the direction of LTJG MOORE, strug- gled with their canoe paddles against wind and waves to transport the Army officers the short hundred yards to the RAZORBACK. Despite every effort of the wind, they made it safely and brought the rubber raft alongside the RAZORBACK. At that moment, a huge wave crested against the hull of the submarine and washed back into the liferaft.
