AUGUST 8th 1941

6th Day at Sea
A sea plane flew round our ship today and signal to us it was a WALRUS. 1926 and it came off one of the Cruisers in Convoy.

Everybody feeling much better now.
This is the 2nd day we have been alone and was glad when one of the destroyers dropped back for us.  No sooner than we was with destroyer a submarine was located and dropped several depth charges. The submarine had been following us all day long.  We are going full speed trying to catch Convoy up.

Another submarine spotted by sea plane.  Sea plane dropped two 500 lb bombs on it and that was the end of that sub.
I think it was a good job the Cruiser found us otherwise the Winsor Castle might not have been here.
