HASTINGS VICTORY I
* i
According to crew members of
the Hastings Victory, Captain.
Joe Zardis likes to follow the!
troughs of the sea in roughq
weather. Their trip from Frisco]
to Yokohama, with a load of 214 ;
goats and general cargo took
them thirteen or fourteen days.
I wonder if the goals are still
seasick.
Most of the fifty-two crew
members of the Hastings Victory
are from .the west coast. Many ]
of the men arc veterans of]
World War II, and they claim !
that some of their experiencs on
the Hastings Victory reminds
them of ihe war.
Adolph Highland is the first
mate, and is well liked by the
entire crew. Ask him who nam
ed the dock at Batangas, in the
Philippines while the sea was
calm.
A small army tug is given
credit for putting a hole in their
hull at Adak Island in the Aleu
tians, after which a repair barge
came along side and fixed it up.
The ship left Frisco on the
17th of November and should
arrive in Seattle about the 16th
of next month.
Most of the fellows say that
they will be happy to return to
the States as soon as possible.
This is the first trip to Alaska
for many of them, and they ex
press much surprise to find such
modern conveniences in all the
small coastal towns.
