Well, there's little really to add to the press reports. I was sleeping at the time & got a very rude awakening. What with the explosion and umteen books falling on my head! I realised it wasn't the steward with my afternoon tea. There was no panic and we had heaps of time to get clear. The sea was as calm as milk...& we were even picked up by Destroyers, one of which had already sank the boch with a depth charge. We lost....including two engineers, but considering we had....torpedoes it might have been considerably worse.' (25th August 1918).
