Transcription Notes
About mid day it is whispered that we may sail at midnight. At any rate we have boat drill at 12.30. We are all mustered on deck A-L starboard M-Z Port, are shown how to put on our life belts and are given general instructions what we are to do when the alarm signal — 5 blasts on the fog horn — is given. We up anchor at midnight and sail at 12.40. I stay on deck to see the start and then turn in but do not take off my clothes!Location
