"Who have you on board?" we heard the casual English voice say. Then came the reply from our colonel:
"Newfoundlanders."
There was to me something reassuring about that cool, self-contained voice out of the night. It made me feel that we were being expected and looked after.
"Move up those boats," I heard the English voice say, and from right under our bow a naval launch, with a middy in charge, swerved alongside. In a little while it, with its string of boats, was securely fastened.
