Re: BT3 John Crego’s story: It was the Suez Canal in ’75 at Port Said. We had cleared the canal last thing in the day and we were heading into the Med en route home. Apparently the locals had expected us to dock for the night. In the process the boat Crego mentioned tied up to the side of the ship (must have been a padeye or something down there…) and the BM’s had to cut the guy loose as we picked up speed heading for the open sea.
