: I am preparing to call Mr. Veitz again with a few questions. One of which is if he remembers seeing red in the hawspipes of the main anchors of the Olympic.
: This man is in his mid 80's and is getting very sick. His mind is sharp but be advised, he is a Cunard fan more than anything and was aboard the Mauritania and Aquitania and more I'm sure, besides boarding the Olympic about three times.
: In many of the ship books around, you will see his name for the picture credits. he has one of the most extensive photo collections in existance!
: I want to compile a list of questions for him, so any suggestions, list them here.
: Bruce
Bruce -- as long as you are asking him about the color "red," ask him if he remembers any vents with red interiors. I know we are expecting the answer to be "no," but why not nail it down during this great opportunity. He already mentioned the waterways being black. Were those the waterways along the deck perimeter, or would it include the boat deck waterways just inside the planking along the extended cabin bulkheads?
Thanks!!!
