Japanese Navy (海上自衛隊) Recruiting Video

At least to western eyes, this is totally off the wall. It makes it look just “totally hip” (or maybe totally gay) to be in the JMSDF; and oddly enough it's in english...sort of. It is on a real Japanese government site though...

Lyrics:
We have seaman ship, seaman ship, for love;
We have seaman ship, seaman ship, for peace;
[voiceover translation: I love Japan. I love peace. Maritime Self-Defense Force.]
We have seaman ship, seaman ship, for love!

The ship would appear to be the JDS Hatsuyuki (Early Snow) as Hatsuyuki has the hull number DD-122, and the 1 could be dropped because all JMSDF destroyer hull numbers start with 1.
