jets BS: Ships and boats (30) RE: BS: Ships and boats 03 Dec 03

I was on a Libery ship in 1947 that carried the last load of grain from Portland ME.
We had loose grin with bagged grain on top to hold every thing in place,
Upon arrival in Portugal,women came aboard to off laod the cargo by hand But first they had to dump the bags of grain and rebag to the proper size bag. Then of course the loose grain was bagged and hoised out with the winches. I spent most of the days uptown with the men of the town BSing, drinking coffee, etc
