Thread Name: 'New' Sea Songs & Shanties & Nautical Songs
Subject: RE: 'New' Sea Songs & Shanties & Nautical Songs
Hi, all, I find a couple of references to a Birkenhead Drill, and am familiar with the meaning (the women and children first practice) and the Kipling poem Soldiers and Sailors Too, but I have not found the song itself. Can anyone help me out?

Also, it gladdens my heart to see how many on this (older) thread are people I now know in the flesh!
