I also tasted the canned fruit and approved of it. The setting was beautiful and natural. The wide sea below was spotted with fishing boats, and the experience was exhilarating. The friendship and sincerity of the armed forces impressed me. I continued inspection of various facilities in the afternoon and became more firmly convinced of the truth of the maxim that "The diligence of man is certain to break down natural barriers." As night fell, I returned to Kinmen.}}{{cite web|url=https://www.cga.gov.tw/GipOpen/wSite/public/Attachment/f1518579482629.pdf|script-title=zh:金門地區離島通航航道公告圖|language=zh-tw|access-date=25 August 2019|website=Coast Guard Administration (Taiwan)|quote={{lang|zh-tw|復興嶼}} Fuhsing Islet}}{{cite web|url=https://www.cga.gov.tw/GipOpen/wSite/public/Attachment/f1261015925415.pdf|script-title=zh:東北季風期間大陸漁船越區捕魚或避風海巡艦艇難以出勤驅離之探討|trans-title=Examining what keeps Coast Guard cutters and vessels from expelling Mainland fishing vessels' trespassing for illegal fishing and/ or seeking shelter against gusty winds during the Northeast trade wind period|author=洪挬論 Hung Poh-lun|date=2005|access-date=25 August 2019|website=Coast Guard Administration (Taiwan)|page=53|language=zh-tw,en|quote={{lang|zh-tw|（四）金門海域：大多集中於大岩嶼群礁至塔山一帶、小金門東崗至復興嶼海域及大膽、二膽間之水道。}}{...}4.)The Kinmen sea territories: Mainland fishing vessels tend to congregate along the Dayen islet to Ta Shan, the water areas from Little Kinmen's Dong Gang to Fuhsing islet, and the waterways between Da Dan and Er Dan.}} {{lang|zh-tw|后宅嶼}}{{cite book|script-title=zh:秘島：大二膽的秘境秘史|language=zh-tw|author=Lin Ma-Teng 林馬騰 |publisher=林馬騰文史工作室|isbn=978-957-41-6438-7|date=July 2009}}{{rp|36}} Hou-chai Hsü{{cite web|location=Washington, D.
