I served on the San Leonardo as a SOS in 1951. I remember sailing from Trinidad for Montreal in the month of December. As we got closer to our destination we began to gradually ice up.Sailing down the St. Lawrence we looked more like an iceberg than a oiltanker. None of us had any winter clothing and we almost froze to death. I wrapped a towl around my head to keep my ears from freezing. We all went ashore and got very drunk. I got very sick because the French men said that the proper way to drink Canadian beer was with lots of salt. |
