Loading Cargo
Posted on December 1st, 2003 by marinerguy
Folks-
The WATKINS Ship had a busy two days of cargo loading in Antwerp,Belgium.
The hours turned into days and now It looks like we’re off to deliver our cargo! It was an experience I will not forget. I approximate about 1200-1300 vehicles were loaded in that time. I witnessed huge military trucks: M-88 Battle Tanks, Humvees, Bradley Carriers, that rolled on-all of which are now onboard secure for the voyage. The operations went alright- but I was not able to make it into town. Boo hoo!
It is quite cold and rainy in Belgium, but I guess ’tis the season’.
Off and away we go to the next port, I’ll let you know when we arrive. Wish me luck!
Until next time,
Nadir
