HMS Mercury in 1965 written by Louis Providence
As the Class Leader, and one of only three Blacks among several thousand trainees in Mercury, we had to march everywhere, all the other courses were addressed by their class number, not our class, I addressed them as "White Trash". Imagine the look on the new Officers faces when we were marching past the and they heard the command from this black class leader, "White Trash eyes right", they always turned and listened for the eyes front, and yes it was "White Trash eyes front". But those were the good old days before Political Correctness. More soon. |
