Just missed you on the "Memnon",I left it in May 66,6th engineer.Alan

[Andrew Clark Stewart]

Hi Alan,
How long did you stay at sea ,how was life onboard Memnon?
Regards
Andy

[Alanrae]

About twenty nine years off and on.Memnon was OK but,as an orofice,got fed up with the bullcrap and uniforms,no dirty mess and daily,except sunday,old man's inspections.You had to be out of bed and in full uniform regardless of what watch you were on.They also had an inspection,by office wallahs prior to sailing.Moved on to Mobil-what a culture shock!Alan

Vernon,
Thanks for the welcome onboard,hope to trace and track some old shipmates but its been a long time,a lot of tides have ebbed and flowed,paid off my last ship 3rd June 1970 the Texaco Rotterdam and joined the Ministry Of Defence Police and been employed as a Marine Police Officer ever since,can't get water from below me.
