We didn't see the first shot land but
our forward gunner claimed there
were two submarines and that he
sank one of them with the first shot.
Immediately afterwards both Of
our guns opened fire and we started
zigzagging. When the submarine
finally fired we could see the bubbles
coming straight for us. We switched
our course and the torpedo passed

Maurice, French dancer, acted won
derfully He moved through the people
advising every one to hurry but not TO
rush and his GOODNESS calmed many.
Someone began playing ragtime on
tho piano.
After half an hour of intermittent
battle and jockeying we saw one shot
strike close to the submarine and she
disappeared. ! must admit that IL

ever watched. To have seen us you
would have thought we were watching
