"This energetic and reliable rating, whose progress has been retarded only by his lack of full knowledge of the English language, has been an outstanding example to the French speaking members of the crew. He has worked hard for the wellbeing of the ship's company by being unstinting of his time and efforts. His storerooms are models of efficiency and cleanliness, and he has always displayed a cheerful spirit even though he suffers from a form of chronic seasickness."
