THE M.V. DIOMED - ANECDOTES

As a midshipman nearing the end of his apprenticeship, Ian Thomson was appointed Bosun’s Mate on Diomed’s maiden voyage. In accordance with Alfred Holt and Company’s policy, Ian maintained a Log Book, which was used to record the daily work schedule of the midshipmen throughout that voyage. It has been digitally reproduced and enhanced with a selection of Ian’s photographs of the voyage, and it is available for download as a pdf here.

Any anecdotes that you may have of Diomed would be most gratefully received.
