Most Ranger sailors had only three or four days to see all ofHong Kong. Every trip to the beach was a time of great decision. What to do? What to see? Jade had to be bought, clothes had to be jitted. Every square inch of the island had to be explored, not a sight was to be missed, not a bar left unvisited. For the first time young Americans saw the Orient at its best and its worst.
