Day 0
Ouisterham
I slept as best as I could in my assigned salon which sounded like a lumbermill. I literally rested my head back and blinked before I heard movement and saw people were getting up for breakfast. Realizing I wasn't going to get much more sleep, I made way to the mess deck. I loaded up my tray and started eating when I realized I was the last person on the boat! I drank the last of the scalding hot coffee and ran down the ship's brow to the van filled with patiently waiting GIs.
