Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. We remained in dock a full two days after embarking, dur ing which time no one was allowed to leave the ship or to mention his location in a letter. On a fine Sunday afternoon we started off, almost without warning, and in spite of our impatience at the delay, it gave us quite a shock, a mixture of a thrill of excitement and a sinking sensation, to see America getting away from us. The sights of the harbor, a change indeed from the deadly barracks and sand of the past eight months, kept our thoughts busy, but there was not a man who did not look at that receding land at least once and wonder if he would see it again.
