-an-w..,-an-fn gi www,-. The S tragglers I Have you ever heard of that ten percent? No doubt you have. This ship is no exception as you can see by the below picture. Why were these men missing when their respective Division's pictures were taken? They claim that they were sleeping in after the mid-watch. A likely story. Sure, they were sleeping in, but you can bet it was not because, of the mid- watch. It was probably due to a tough liberty on the French Riviera the night before. Some of these sailors had boat duty, but whoever heard of a true sailor that could not get a relief for himself when one was needed. ' Maybe theywanted their pictures taken a under a special title.
