Memories
In September,1940,my mother,sister and I went to Swansea,where my father’s ship was getting ready to sail. We brought him a family photograph to be kept with him at all times and keep him safe.
Then I remember my mother lying face down,sobbing. She had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo (鱼雷).
I can remember the arrival of the telegram (电报),which in those days always brought bad news. My grandmother opened it. It read,“Safe. Love Ted. “
My most vivid memory is being woken and brought down to sit on my father’s knee,his arm in a bandage.
He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of the war. For as long as I can remember,he had a weak heart. Mother said it was caused by the torpedoes. He saidit was because of the cigarettes. Whichever,he died suddenly in his early 50s.
Ten years later I readNight of the U-boats and was able to complete the story.
Torpedo
One torpedo struck the ship. Father was in the engine room,where the third engineer was killed. He shut down the engines to slow the ship making it easier for it to be abandoned.
