 Traditions in the Navy run much deeper than the ones taught in Huken. Sailors in CB Battalion 74 share a tradition that only the CBs in Sasebo are familiar with. Zoe is our mascot here in Sasebo. She has been here for about three years. Every time a new battalion deploys here, she gets turned over. The sailors have accepted Zoe as family, even though they know they have to leave her when they rotate out of Japan. When it's time for us to rotate out of Sasebo, the most important thing I can do with her, is to really emphasize the tradition that comes along with keeping her here. She's not just the dog that's here, she's our CB mascot. As Battalion 74 packs up their gear and says goodbye, in the MCB-5 becomes the newest part of Zoe's family.
