    Default Titanic Fireman Discharge book restored

    On BBC 1 tonight, on the program “The Repair Shop”, a fireman from the Titanic, who saved 68 in a lifeboat, had his replacement Discharge Book restored back to its original state, I saw the program and was moved by how well the restoration was done.

    Hi Bill
    The restoration of the Discharge Book was exultant could even make out the Discharge entries and VG on the pages.

    It was great - apart from the fact that it was constantly referred to as a ' Log Book'.

    Hi Bill.
    I have watched some of those restorations on TV out here, it is brilliant what those people can achieve with their skills.

    There was a program on SBS the other night,
    'Hidden secrets of the Titanic'

    I would have thought by now all there was to know was found out years ago.
