Evening Grace Snip & Sam~

Bless both your hearts for todays thread.

"Silence in Ranks, and close up in the rear,
Look out in the front, If the foe should appear,
Blaze away, show no Quarter, but slay as you go,
And should you fall, Let it be with face to the foe."
~Prvt. S.J. Adams, Texas Ranger~from the "Battle of San Bennidito"

Sam, glad you enjoyed the "bushswackling" Master and Commander, it really took one into the guts of sea battles back then.

Evening w_-over_w.

Snippy and I were talking about what life must have been like on a ship back then. No radio, so there was no communication with anyone back home, you were dependant on wind to even move, medicine was primative so any injury or sickness was life threatening. Almost make syou wonder why men went to sea.
