kehner, P. 1964 114 Nov. 9 up early; rain again threatening continuously; George, Dave and I tried to get over to Ebeye - this brought on a series of humorous events which at least changed the pace of this tiring layover; we were first told we could not go to Ebeye - when we later pressed the issue, indicating that we might actually make it, the security guard told about one chap who had his heart cut out over there and two others who went over and have not been heard from since - he made it sound like some fire-spitting dragon inhabited the island ready to devour all haoles who trespassed - this of course was even more ridiculous since two of our crew had been welcomed warmly on the island the day before - when we finally found out we could not get back in time anyway we abandoned the issue; Larry was at the runway all morning and returned near noon with 2 duck sp.? and 5 Golden Plover; there was a small squid near the ship; Biman sighted a Frigatebird high over Kwajalein Island; at 4:00 the new second mate had arrived on board and we were heading out from the pier after 12 days in Kwajalein - relief could be heard or sensed throughout the crew; by this time everyone (over)
