Orkie's Journal 15 April '71

April 15, 1971


ORKIE'S JOURNAL
15 April '71

HAVING RONDEZVOUSED OFF MALTA WITH THE M.L.U! I WE PROCEEDED ON TOWARD ISRAEL. VERY SOON THE SKYLINE OF HAIFA CAME INTO VIEW AND THE CHIEF STOREKEEPER BROKE OUT A CASE OF BLACK EYEPATCHES & DISTRIBUTED THEM T0 THE CREW.

AFTER A LIGHT LUNCH OF CHICKEN SOUP WE BOLDLY APPROAChed THE SHORE, (AT PERISCOPE DEPTH,) AND PRESENTLY WE WERE BOARDED BY THE HAIFA HARBOR PILOT WHO DRIVE OUT IN HIS TANK.

WITH THE PILOT WAS HIS HELMSMAN, A MAN I RECOGNIZED AS HAVING ONCE VERY UNSUCCESSFULLY ACTED ON THB YIDDISH STAGE IN NEW YORK. I NUDGED THE PILOT AND ASKED. "ISN'T THAT THE HAM ACTOR WHO ONCE ...?" - BEFORE I COULD FINISH THEY BOTH TURNED TO ME IN SHOCKED SILENCE AND AFTER SEVERAL LONG. COLD MOMENTS THE PILOT ICILY SAID 'HERE THERE AIN'T NO HAMS!" THE PILOT MOTIONED TO THE HELMSMAN AND SAID "LET'S GO, SAMMY" & THEY LEAPED BACK INTO THEIR TANK & MADE FOR SHORE LEAVING US T0 PICK OUR OWN WAY THROUGH THE HAIFA MINEFIELD.
