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.
