...official statements were too grand for so sentimental an occasion. One of the U.S. arrivals was so taken with emotion that he could not answer questions at customs, and soon the customs inspector was weeping too. One Lebanese mountaineer had carefully rehearsed one English phrase of greeting, boomed out "Hi, buddy," then lapsed into a rattle of Arabic. Some of the Americans' fractured Arabic was just as incomprehensible to their old-country friends.
