Yanks, Come Home

Whatever else it does, the World's Greatest Democracy certainly must produce irresistible sailormen. Whenever a U.S. ship calls at Wellington the crew is inundated with invitations and usually they leave a thank you letter in the local papers. Whenever a British ship calls there are plaintive pleas: "Will somebody please entertain a sailor." It's time the Limeys got some decent chutty gum.
