Standing by for movement. But still tied up at dock. Convoy forming with Plenty of warship support. Those warships are certainly a grand and soothing sight. I hope this little fiasco we are heading for now sounds as good in the American paperss.
Sea is very rough, progress of convoy is considerably slower.
Many of men are sick. Don't feel so chipper myself. Minor catasprophe in room today. Convoy now totals about 60 ships and those American warships are the most beautiful things I have seen. Sailing N.W. Weather becoming very warm.
