New Items in "Yarns and Tales"

Postby Jim Blake » Sun Jan 24, 2021 9:52 pm

Greetings All!

There is a new item in "Yarns and Tales", from Phil Carroll, describing his early days as an Officer Trainee.

We're buiding up a few interesting items that map the Human history of the Line, and seafaring in general, but its mostly Deck-side memories.

If there are engineers or catering staff with a literary turn, it would be good to get a more rounded view: - Come On You Lot, get your Quills and word processors out and tell the world about what you did at sea, it was a long time ago is some cases, but it was fun and a good life, so its time to record it for posterity (and for the entertainment of us other greaybeards!)

Cheers

Jim

Well done to former Master Peter Hay for that insight into a cadets life in the1950's.
Very amusing, yet we can all relate to parts even though our times may have been 20
Years later.
