John Baskin's ABC Radio Report:

Narrator: Welcome to the Persian Gulf. We're going to spend the next half hour with the first naval escort of reflagged tankers.

A team of American reporters has been invited to watch what the navy calls "Operation Earnest Will."

Our trip begins in the middle of the night, off the coast of an Arab state that doesn't want to be identified. This is one choppy introduction to the gulf of Oman. The black and green tugboat we're riding on is pitching and rolling in this black, pitch black gulf of Oman, as huge waves of water come spilling over the side, soaking us and our bags.

Soon we're aboard the USS Fox, a guided missile cruiser; and sailors are stowing gear, and falling in for the morning muster.

In the wardroom - coffee and rolls, and a welcome from Captain William Mathis.
