Patrolling the narrow entrance to Wonsan Harbor for the most part is a routine, unexciting job for the Destroyer sailor. The night are quiet, broken occasionally by a few outgoing rounds of harassing fire. The watch goes cold and slowly, unless for the unexpected, the sailor's mind could wander. The lookout caught just a glimpse of it over his right shoulder - a mine; a big one. He knew it by sight; a recommissioned Japanese model. He didn't like the look of it, but his voice was clear - "Mine sighted off the starboard beam." Minutes later, as 40mm tracers cut through the dawn, the explosion echoed from the island of Yodo, across the bay and died out leaving the morning watch once more a routine job.
