At this parti .| time a catastrophe of this nature might be expected at any moment. The efficiency developed as.a result of this drill accounts for the minimum of loss when troopships have been torpedoed. Several times we were all called upon the decks as a result of the ship’s alarm being sounded, and in one in- stance what appeared to be a periscope of a submarine was sighted and al guns’ were fired with remarkable ac curacy upon the object. These wer tense moments of excitement as we fully realized what the deadly torpedo of the submarine meant. At any rate, in a few minutes all had recomposed themselves as it proved to be nothing but a floating abject.
