At random: In 1921, a United States submarine, the R-14, having run out of fuel at sea while looking for the missing tug USS Conestoga, rigged sails from blankets and hammocks sewn together. Bunk frames were used for yardarms and booms. The torpedo loading king post for a fore mast, the torpedo loading boom for a mizzen mast and the telescoping radio mast, for the main mast. The R-14 sailed 100 miles in five days to the port of Hilo, T.H. at a speed of two knots. It has been reported in March 2016 that the Conestoga has been located 3 miles off Southeast Farallon Island, probably sinking with-in a day of leaving port. All hands lost.

Sad news. I always really liked her movies and misic.

Flashers first skipper, Ken Carr, always had the Movie PO make sure there were at least 2 Doris Day movies aboard.
RIP Doris!

Always had a thing for her.
From what I've been told and read, she was as beautiful inside as out.
God bless and blessed repose.
