How Uncle Sam Trains His Sailors For The Sea
The Alliance, Uncle Sam's training ship from Virginia, sails a ten month voyage through West Indian and European waters. About 300 landsmen and 100 bluejackets undergo gunnery signaling drill ropework and naval routines, with strict discipline and mast court, fire drills, and general quarters. After storms and long passages to Bridgetown, Punta del Gado, and Queenstown, most trainees rise to ordinary seamen after quarterly exams.
