February Graduating Class 1919

Page 4 text:

Btalnrg Our four years enlistment on the good ship West Tech has nearly expired and we who are fortunate enough to reach the harbor in safety look back with satisfaction over our four years voyage. When we first enlisted, there were nearly two hundred of us but many were not fit for so rough a voyage. Many died from the common disease known as laziness. Our casualties were greatest the first year and a majority of those who survived this trip were able to serve out their enlistment. Of those who were frightened by the first stages of sea sickness we remember little. They arc long since at rest in the sea of oblivion. 'Those who could not stand the pace, one by one dropped out and today only picked men are left. Men whom the captain can recommend and who are bound some day to sail the high seas, not as men before the mast but as officers. These men have held their posts through many a gale and when they leave the harbor and launch out for themselves, they will surely succeed. Our four voyages each lasted nine months and we were given three months shore leave in between. A few overstayed their shore leave and some deserted. After every shore leave we attacked our work with fresh vigor and determination to succeed. We all resolved to work hard, that our ship might come to safe anchorage after every voyage and not become a victim of the deadly U-boats. Although these U-boats succeeded in doing a great deal of damage we steered our course courageously and resolved to build our ships faster than they could be sunk, and W(C who have survived, suceeded. On all our four voyages a great deal of credit is due to our officers. For two years and a half our captain was Mr. Short. He was an efficient captain and under his command our ship became one of the leading ships in the fieet. Mis work was so
