February 21, 1918
Arose at 7 A.M., ate and turned to 8 A.M.
Worked until noon and turned in to bunk at 1 P.M.
Got out for “Abandon Ship” drill at 2 P.M.
Went back to bunk and stayed rest of day and that night.
Sea still very heavy; snow, rain and sleet squalls all day.
Ran slow all night so would not pass convoy in the storm.
