With the guard of honour still evidently suffering from a heavy run-ashore the previous night, the Chief could only hope that his ventriloquism skills would be able to prevent offending the ambassador.

To the tune of "In The Navy", by The Village People

In the Navy,
You get to sail the seven seas.
In the Navy,
Play with your weapon as you please.
In the Navy,
You get touched up while stood at ease.
In the Navy, In the Navy.

The Honour guard was to be inspected by way of "trade"

Consequently the medic was asked to cough etc...
