Thank you.
First of all thank you for allowing me to join this group . I was in the merchant navy from 1958 up until 1961.
I was on the pendennis, sterling, Windsor and I think the pretoria castle ships . I too was on the Adriana not sure of spelling . was an Hamburg American line, sailing under the Panamian flag.
