Great video. This brings back so many memories. I was stationed at base communications from 69 to 73. I didn't want to leave! Among other places, I hung out at Katie's bar in crazy corners (very hospitable joint),. Stands bars Honey, Konpa, Nina and Word in saketown. Last but not least, snagging a good spot at snack Paul in saketown and waiting for the bar girls to get off work. It was a great City. Every one was so nice. Thanks for posting this.
Jeff Cameron - random question. We are looking for a bar that we believe was called “Seven Seven” around 1971ish in Paradise Alley. Does this bar name ring a bell to you?
Nicely done. From 1967 to 1969, I was assigned to USS Albatross MSC 289 -- one of nine coastal minesweepers that were homeported at Sasebo. I've managed to stay in touch with a number of my former shipmates -- one of whom sent me the link to these photos on RUclips that I will forward to others.
Ramona Martinez that's really awesome I was born there in 2000 when my dad met my Japanese mom while he was working on the Essex, and I got to experience so much of Sasebo growing up there and I would've loved to have been around back I. Those day and see how everything was like or if anything was different. Now I'm in America and I miss my home country so much and I miss my family there, but damn does Sasebo feel like a really special place, that's all have a good day sir and thank you for your service
Grew up a Navy brat in the 60's. We lived in Sasebo from 1968 til 1974. My youngest brother was born there in 1970. Went to EJ king, played on the Dental team, the "Cardinals" as a kid. Bowled at the bowling alley, swam at the base pool, lived in the old Quanset huts , rode my bike all over the base and Sasebo. I remember the Pueblo, had some class mates whose dads were on her. I remember the Connie, Kitty, Poor Richard, and one time seeing the flashes of I think it was the Mo letting loose her guns, and when the Enterprise came to visit. I have seen updated pictures of the base, and it really is night and day from what I recall. My father was a Dental Medical equipt. repairman, LOL, he got busted for his drinking, (classic story), and his chief had him run the old "Showboat" and he served as scout master for us in 1970-73... Scout troop 363, I always look at Sasebo as where I grew up and called home. I also remember watching the Ajax and knowing some of the crew. And going to the Marine barracks and playing ball with the young Marine fellows.. LOL, I and friends spent endless hours rooting thru the trash cans near the seabees, amazing finds, and going behind the exchange and digging out unsold old playboys and such from their garbage. I and a friend got in trouble once, we accidently set a fire that caused a lot of smoke in one of the old bomb shelters.... it was an amazing place to grow up....

I was born in Sasebo in 1970, my dad was stationed there. I believe he was on the USS Epping Forrest? He still talks about an area in Sasebo called "Crazy Corners"! Sure did appreciate the video. I'm sure my parents will enjoy it as well. Thanks again.
Was stationed in Sasebo from December 1961 at Mobile Support Unit 3 until January 1964. Then back for duty in December 1964 aboard the USS Widgeon (MSC-208) until July 1965 then to USS Warbler (MSC-206) unit January 1968. Daugher born at Base Hospital in Dec. 1965. Hanged out at the Blue Bird Stand Bar in Paradise Alley and the Acey/Duecy Club (First and Second Class Mess) just outside the Main Gate.
Ahoy Mates, Thanks for all the comments from ALL of you!. I hadn't visited this slideshow in a long time & it said it was blocked due to content from Columbia? What?!?! Anyway, I complained to the powers that be & it's back now.
I met my late husband 1972 in Sasebo Japan. He was Machinist mate. He took me to inside USS Hector AR7 once. I remember the day Hector came into Sasebo port very clearly to replace USS Ajax. Many many memories. Your video cause me bit of heartache but I thank you for your video.

I was stationed in Sasebo from 1968-1970. Great memories. I was in communications and the comsta was in the Admin building. The Surfbird was berthed close by. Crazy Corners was "anchored" by a bar called Cisco's that stayed open after hours because they served food.
Was in and out during 69'-70' deployment U S S Coral Sea. Old man now and sure would like to return for one more visit, but, Guess this is as close as it comes to returning..! Thanks for the memories,..!
What a joy for an old salt from days on USS Gannets MSC 260 in late 60's and 3 trips Mekong and surrounds. Had my own place and scooter all over island. Great crew and Japanese wonderful hosts! Bernard Lawson RD2
I was born there in January 1969. My dad was stationed there also, and I know the Epping Forrest was one of the ships he was on. I'll have to ask him about "Crazy Corners."
I served aboard the USS Catskill MCS 1 jul 69-nov 70 and was homeported out of Sasebo until aug 70. I remember the EM club was up on a hill and there were a ton of bars. I believe the entrance to the bar district was called paradise alley..............
My ship docked in Sasebo for 5 days of mixed R&R and re-gunning(6 in.turrent & 5 in.mount). I remember all those 'Stand Bars' and clubs. This place was nothing like Subic Bay P.I., really conservative and low key. But, was weird...all those older Japanese men and their Bonzai Clubs. A form of the V.F.W. here in the States.
@popeyeR7 He may be referring to Sailor town, which is where all the alcoholic sailors go to drink. Today, this area...still has drunken sailors in bars. And it is funny how I also can recognise these places. Especially 2:16 and 2:26. The crane at 2:16 is still there, too.
@stepskills I was there from 1971-75 with Marine Barracks but was on shore patrol the whole time, both my kids were born there as well, LOL I locked up a few sailors in my 4 yrs there LOL Just joking. I went back in 2007 1/2 the base is gone back to the J/N military and only found 5-6 bars , there used to be 234 bars in sailor town and RTO. this was my best duty station.
Yes, Crazy Corners was the best and safest place to drink without the buy me drinky chicks. Cisco's on the very corner and an open toilet at the end of the hallway. Bars "Tommy's" "Midnight" and "Joker" were all good watering holes. Tommy's moma san was the best friend for a drunk sailor to get back to the ship safely.
当時20万人市民の中の1人でした。米兵達はベトナムに向かう休暇でにぎわい、この佐世保市が彼らの消費する金銭を求めず、彼らのフレンドリーな米国民を受け入れて親切には親切返しを分かち合いました。US市民のコメント投稿はその証です。
生まれてから1983年まで住んでました。米軍相手のバー街が懐かしく、帰省する度風景が変わりなんか物足りなさを感じさせるのは、このバー街がなくなっていったからだと、こちらの動画を見て思いました。
母親が佐世保生まれで私は1963~1966に住んでいました。当時の住まいは島瀬町の中村ビルで、マンションの隣室の優しいお姉さんは米軍さんのオンリーでした…切なく懐かしい記憶が蘇ります。
佐世保生まれの現在18歳です。今は愛知に住んでいますが時々佐世保に帰ったりします。
自分は佐世保が好きなので、こういう時代の佐世保生でみてみたいです😂
バスの行き先にジョスコーというのがあって長年の謎でしたが米軍の給油施設と最近知りました。
あったあった‼️
「ジョスコー」行きを知ったころに
「ジャスコ」佐世保店が出来て賑わってた頃。区別が付きませんでした。ちなみに国鉄時代に「ジョスコー線」と言う鉄道があって、旧市民病院の前に線路だけ残ってました。
父がジョスコーで何年か働いてた記憶が有ります給油基地だったんですか。
Wow, what memories. I was stationed in Sasebo from 1968-1970. Crazy Corners was where the bar district started, right past the bridge.
I might have had a beer with you, maybe an Asahi or a Sapporo.

I was in Sasebo from 71 to75 I was with Marine Barracks, I was on Shore patrol the whole time I was there.
This video is priceless. wow I was born in 1970. I will return home as well at the end of the month.
