Text Appearing Before Image:
n,May the Lord have mercy upon us. Sing me a song of a CMB (Engineer),May the Lord have mercy upon us; Bred in a garage and sent to sea. May the Lord have mercy upon us; Taken away from the motor trade. Seasick, sorry and sore dismayed. But a hell of a Knut on the Grand Parade,May the Lord have mercy upon us. Sing me a song of the M. L. Cook, May the Lord have mercy upon us;With a Petrol stove in a greasy nook, May the Lord have mercy upon us;Our meals a lukewarm lingering death,Well praise the Hun with our final breathH hell strafe our Galley and slay our Chef,May the Lord have mercy upon .is. Sing me a song of a North Sea Base,May the Lord have mercy upon us; A dirty forgotten one horse place, May the Lord have mercy upon us; When the wind blows West how brave we are! When the wind blows East, its different far. We wish we were back in the Hjrbour Bar,May the Lord have mercy ufon us.

Further-more, the Na\y Department, realizing that much could be learned fromthe architects who had specialized in this type of boat, solicited sug-gestions in the form of designs for motor boats which would be suit-able for conversion for the use of the Navy, and actually ordered twoboats as an example to patriotic yachtsmen who might wish to build.But litt
