Kuuko is singing a "shanty" - i.e. a sailor's work song.
Time for some history lesson today. Chihaya in a kimono dress is posing in front of the Hisamatsu Five Memorial close to the southwestern edge of the Island. This was erected in commemoration of five young village men and their selfless show of bravery and sense of duty for their country.

Officer Cadet Misako Isurugi at the firing range. The Glock was her first handgun and her favorite ever since. Misako liked the soft grip of the synthetic polymer and the light recoil. And her brother had taught her the Glock.
Chihaya has been sort of an adventure diver recently. Well, she always has been, but her newly attained focus is how deep you can go rather than how long you can stay down. Today, she has set about to reach the "Phantom Mooring," as it was called, an aged anchor an...
