Hawaiian king and queen recieve the Japanese delegation

Today, the crewmembers of our USS Powhatan and the Japanese ambassadors arrived in the tropical oceans of the Hawaiian Islands. According to my friends who are crewmembers aboard the USS Powhatan, they were immediately rushed off to meet the king and queen of Hawaii before they had barely set foot on solid ground. The king and queen of Hawaii greeted the crewmembers and Japanese ambassadors with much hospitality. Oh how I envy them! Being able to have the luxury of meeting and feeling like royalty while I’m stuck back home in San Francisco delivery mail, no matter how much I enjoy it!
