FRISCO TO JAPAN ,
Today, Jure 8, 1951* I embarked •
on my first journey to a foreign
land.
Our draft of men loft Troasurc
Island, the Naval receiving statio;
at San Francisco, early this morn
to board a ship destined for the
most popular spot on the globe to
day. Yes, none other than Korea
and Japan. To many of us, thi3 is
something new and exciting, and our .
waiting on the ship to cast off is
n't helping. Our first sailing time
was 1530» Then it was moved up to
1800 and the last time it was 2000.
We just cast off and aro now on
our way. I should mention our send
off. There were a handful of long
shore men and a dozen members of the
Army Band.
The captain with his very pro
nounced Scandanavian accent just an
nounced there is to be a drill. That
means we don our life jackets and
find our lifeboat stations. I think
half of us would have been gonners
if wo had to figure out how to fas
ten those life jackets !
Tho drill is over and tho snip is
beginning to roll so I think tho
best placo for mo is in the rack.
JUNE yes, here it is. Our
first day at sea.Wator, water every
where as far as one can see.
Ye3, and hero aboard ship, every
one is sick as sick can be. The
chow this morning didn’t seem to a
grcc with many of tho men, as a
large number deccidcd it would be '
easier to feed tho fish than try and
digest it themselves.
Tho sailing today has boon very
pleasant so far. About noon the sun
broke through and I can see why the
Pacific is famed for its blue water;
it really is a beautiful sight to
see tho inter churn and boil as wo
cut through it. There isn’t much to
see during the day. A ship went by
toward Frisco—probably from Korea.
We saw a seal, also. It seemed to
by by itself; probably one of the
roavinn: kind.
I mot a few of the soldiers and
airmen that arc going to Japan a
long with us. That helped pass time.
Two of the guys had harmonicas so
we took turns playing them and fin
ally all hut two of us went to sleep
on the deck under a warm air vent.
JUKE 10--Today is Sunday and the
weather has been nothing to bragg a
bout. It did try to sunshine but
the clouds and fog had the upper
hand. For quite a few of us this
was the first time we attended Di
vine Y/orship at Sea.
Most of the boys agree we should
arrange for more than one Sunday a
week, if they serve as good chow as
we have had today. Turkey and all
the trimmings.
A guy sure has a lot of time to
think about the past and future.
This time last year I had a good
job with tho Loycr and Castler con
struction firm. I had to laugh
when I compared wages — I earned in
about throe and a half days what I
get paid ip a month.now.
Day is about over so I’ll go tep
side and breath some of that vast
Pacific salt air before I turn in.
CONTINUED NEXT YEEK.
