at reduced speed formed into the lines we
would hold for the 3,000-mile voyage.
Before we sailed from England, an Army
officer had advised me to carry revolver if
the passengers were Germans. There was
fear that they would try to take over the ship.
No member of our merchant marine crew was
armed. not even the young merchant-marin
cadets who had to elbow through the crowded
holds at night on blackout inspection.
The monotonous days and nights dragged
by and the dazed looks on the prisoners began
to give way to expressions: resentment, Curl
osity, even contentment.

ers would climb up from the darkness of the
hold to emerge into the dazzling sunlight
and the fresh salt wind that blew persistently
off the starboard quarter. "Sch0n, the Ger
man noncom leading the dumping column
would say, "Sch0n - beautiful"
Then, on A deck forward, accompanied by
the wind blowing over the booms and the
water shaping against the ships plates, the
prisoners would begin to sing softly. A nom
com, his long hair tied down with handker-
chief. would climb atop the unsuitable and
lead the singing.

that it was no longer shock to bump into
them on the ladders or to rub elbows with
them in the companionways. The question
asked so frequently when they came aboard:
Gould the Germans take over the ship?" no
longer held dramatic interest To be sure,
the prisoners were so placed that they would
have been at a strategic disadvantage if they
had attempted to revolt, and the MP's were
always at hand with their impressive guns
They Were Licked
Bur it was the attitude of the prisoners
more than the odds against them that made
us forget the question. Hans, Karl, Wolfgang
and Heinrich, some pathetically young with
flowing blond hair, some tough, old and bald,
all seemed to have lost interest in regaining
any battlefront under Hitlers dipping ban
ners. They were licked and they knew it.
The war was being forgotten in this crowded
yet orderly life at sea, which in its way was
a convalescence from the battlefield: Two
meals day, meals incredible to the Germans
- as much bread as you wanted, real butter,
and most wonderful of all, ice cream. The
guards on the ship learned some of the
POW's had not had ice cream since 1910.
They were surprised at the way Americans
on a troopship eat. To them it seemed incred-

ible that country could go to war, total war,
and still feed like this. How could such a
country possibly lose?
The Army adheres strictly to the terms of
the Geneva Convention governing prisoners
of war, acting on the knowledge that fair
treatment is reciprocated in German prison
camps for captured Americans. But Geneva
Convention or no, it is hard to convince an
American civilian that German prisoner
should have butter these days, when a grocer
handles quarter-pound bar as though it
were bar of gold.
The German noncOmS were distinguished
by their manner. A prisoner on KIP duty
accidentally dropped crate of fresh eggs.
To German - and to Americans abroad as
well "a fresh egg possesses the rare beauty
of museum piece and has a much more
practical value. The German noncom made
the prisoner realize this with a tongue
flashing that left the prisoner in tears.
The prisoners created their own music on
A deck forward and aft, and sometimes the
ships loudspeaker played music they liked,
Beethoven's Fifth and Strauss waltzes But
one record was unappreciated, popular
song published some time ago. A contingent
of prisoners was dumping forward for an
