The great attrac- tion in Yokosuka is the large selection of hous evvares and electronic equipment available through the Navy Exchange facilities. When liberty call went, most of us travelled north to Tokyo, .Tapan'S capital city. Tokyo is a thriving metropolis of over 5,000,000 people that has been slowly Westernized since World War II. In this city, no one lacks for things of interest. Tokyo is a cultural center which boasts some of the finest in Western and Griental theatre and artg it is a scenic place which is noted for several beautiful parks, the largest of which are Shiba, Uyeno, and I-Iibiyag and it is an enter- 2 tainment center offering fine restaurants and clubs.

LTJG Snitgeff ASW Coming Officef- STG3 Wright records data on status board, 7' See your Navy Recruiter PC3 Cook, GMG2 Smith, ETN3 Henningsgaard, and SN HGFITI man mount, During the month of March, the STRONG was engaged in two days of ASW exercises with one of our own submarines. This gave our ASW team a chance to sharpen their skills after being idle for many months. The backbone of our ASW team is the Sonarmen. They are the ones who get submarine contact and feed information to CIC and the Bridge. CIC records all information, plots the submarine, and computes the Sub's course and speed. Com- bat also plots our own ship and all air and surface contacts. The STRONG made countless exercise attacks on the Sub firing exercise hedgehogs and simulating firing of torpedoes. t Our ASW team did a very good job under adverse water condidions and without the aid of an under- water fire control system. Our Sonarmen were able to hold contact most of the time for which good maneuvering of the ship was greatly responsible. Sonar, UB Plot, CIC, the Bridge, and our lookouts all work- ing together as a team made the ASW exercise a success.
