On the hour of midnight everyone wishes each other a happy new year, while the Navy celebrates in its own special way. The ships all blare their horns at once, and along with the deafening racket of firecrackers, the old year is seen out and the new welcomed in.
子時一到，除了大家互道新年好，海軍還有一份特別的賀喜慣例﹘ ﹘所有艦艇齊鳴汽笛，和著連連鞭炮聲，送走舊歲迎新年。
