III. Read and translate the text in writing:

In 1969 I was delivering a small cargo ship from San Francisco to Saipan. The vessel belonged to the Trust Territory of the Pacific and flew the pretty blue banner with six gold stars in a circle - the flag of Micronesia.

The ship was the HAFA ADAI (pronounced like Half-a-Day) and had recently been dug out of the bone yard (the Suisun Bay Reserve Fleet) after over twenty years of storage. Needless to say, the condition of the ship left much to be desired. The crew was a good bunch of guys, all Micronesians, but very little English was spoken. All in all, an interesting challenge.

We left San Francisco in weather I would not have chosen, but there was the usual old urgency to get somewhere by some impossible date and off we went. It was February and a fine Aleutian storm was descending on the coast. The forecast, however, was for the storm to pass to the north and diminish. Instead, it came straight on and strengthened. One day out and we were getting bashed. The wind was around 70 knots from the northwest and seas were topping thirty feet.

That night a freak sea broke aboard and tore open number one hatch cover. The next one wrecked the starboard lifeboat, driving it through its chocks. By dawn we had things in hand however, and with the weather steadily improving, we resumed cruising speed.

IV. Answer the following questions (in details):

1. What flag did the cargo ship fly?

2. How long was the ship stored?

3. What was the forecast like?

4. What damage was caused to the ship?

I served on the Holland over a century ago. I still serve to this day on the Trident, Los Angeles & Seawolf class boats and look forward to shipping on the Virginia, Texas, and Hawaii. Places like Fremantle, Rota, LaMadd, Chinhae, Pattaya, Sasebo, and Subic stir my soul. For I am a Submariner.

I rest in peace beneath many seas across this earth. I was on the Barbel off Palawan, the Scorpion off the Azores and the Bonefish in the Sea of Japan. We gave them hell in the harbors at Wewak and Namkwan. I am a Shellback, a Bluenose, a Plank Owner, a MCPO of the Navy, a CNO, and a President. For I am a Submariner.

On December 7th I was onboard the Tautog at Pearl Harbor. I was also on the Tusk in 49 and sacrificed myself for my shipmates on the Cochino. For I am a Submariner.
