When I thought about being trapped on a ship for days and days at a time, I told him there was no way I was going to do it. I want dirt under my feet.
I spent 10 days on a troop ship in 1966 going to Germany with about 1,700 other prisoners, we were called passengers, but it felt like prison. Can you imagine living/sleeping in a compartment with 200 seasick soldiers? It was not pretty! No, I will never go on a ship again.

Been there. Done that.
Cured of ever wanting to get on another ship!
