A memorable Christmas for me was my first one
away from home at Misawa AB, Japan. I'd only just gotten to Misawa in November, so by the time Christmas rolled around I still didn't know a whole lot of people or feel like I was really part of the unit. Christmas Eve came and my flight was having a party. I didn't feel like going (stupid of me in hindsight) so I was just going to mope around the dorm. While watching TV in the dayroom I ran into Mark, another analyst from my flight. His wife and kid were still stateside so Mark was feeling even lower than me. We both decided to go downtown to a local Chinese restaurant (Old Miyaki for those who know) that had a reputation for serving too much food. Anything to get out of the dorm. We got to the place, ordered too much food and some beer to wash it down with. The food was *very* good... corn soup, boneless chicken, cheese gayozas, wonton soup, sweet and sour pork, fried rice, and some other things lost to memory. We ate the whole thing. We stopped off in one bar and looked so forlorn that mamasan gave us a "presento" round of beers. Even I knew then never to turn down free beer so we drank 'em down and headed back to the dorm. Walking on base we noticed, much to our surprise, that the Class VI store was still open. We went in and Mark wanted to get some wine to celebrate the season. Sounded like a good idea until we remembered that neither of us knew jack about wine. We left out of there with 12 grape wine coolers (this was the 80s and people still drank wine coolers...). We got back to our dorm but neither of us felt like going in. It just seemed too depressing. Instead, we found a small little hill to sit on nearby, threw the coolers into the snow and sat down to drink. We started talking. I regaled him with Christmas tradition tales from a family with five kids. He told me about meeting his wife and not really being married long enough to start Christmas traditions. We drank wine, stared off into the darkness and sometimes lapsed into silence. Eventually Mark turned to me and remarked on how good our dinner had been. I had to agree, it was good food and there was plenty of it. Mark looked at me, nodded his head and said, "You know, this ain't so bad." I noticed he was actually smiling and suddenly realized I had to agree with him. Being where we were for the Christmas of 1984 *wasn't* so bad! We'd eaten a fabulous meal, went to a bar and were given free beer, we were laying on the ground in make-shift snow chairs with full belly's and wine coolers at hand to warm us up, and we were in Japan. How cool was that? We talked some more, discussed how much worse things could be, drank more wine and laughed at stupid jokes. Eventually it was late enough for him to go call his wife and I was "relaxed" enough to pull a snowdrift over myself and go to sleep. We managed to stand up, brush the snow off ourselves, gather up our bottles and head back to the dorm. When I got to my room I found that the Enlisted Wives Club had decorated all the doors to look like Christmas presents and had left bags of homemade cookies and chocolates for each of the residents. There were also personalized Christmas cards for each person. No, during that Winter of 1984, on Christmas Eve at Misawa Air Base, Japan, things weren't that bad. Merry Christmas, y'all. -- -Jeff B. 6920th Electronic Security group (ESG), Misawa AB, Japan, 1984 - 1986 "Excuse me. I don't mean to impose, but I am the Ocean." ~ The Salton Sea |

I've seen guys sitting in the mess hall staring at a plate loaded with all the traditional Christmas goodies, tears in there eyes, not touching a bite. And I've walked the Honcho in Yokosuka, Japan on Christmas day, wondering what my family was doing.

You weren't in the real Navy, during six years at sea on the steaming MFing JPJ I never once saw a sailer shed a tear over loneliness, not even with receiving a Dear John... at worst they'd get antzy while heading to St Thomas for a ration of hot dark meat. |

Just think, if you didn't leave home, you probably wouldn't remember a thing about Christmas 1984. Spending that time in Japan made the entire rest of your life possible. I'm too old to remember Christmas except for the one around 1971. My friend was teaching me how to drive and we were driving around 10 the morning in Kailua Hawaii. The skys were very bright and clear and hot. The roads were blinding from the glare on the roads. The streets were clear and empty. My friend's 63 Ford Falcon smelled like a smokehouse because his back seat had caught fire under mysterious circumstances. It was gutted in the back and woe to the third passenger unfortunate enough to ride back there. Oddly enough, the materials used to make Ford back seats pretty much smells like mesquite when ignited. The only reason I remember it was that it was the most unchristmas Christmas ever. Meri- kurisumasu! |

Snake Alley in Sasebo is more interesting. Carol -- |

It's true I didn't do six years' sea duty (Lifers are like flys. They eat shit and bother people.) But I think 2 years' worth on a light guided missle cruiser doing gunfire support and SAR off the coast of Viet Nam qualifies for real Navy. And for what it's worth, the guys I saw crying weren't at sea, they were at NTC San Diego. Not that it matters. Now, John Paul Sheldon, go off in a corner and play with yourself. |
