154 HUNTING THE GEEMAN SHARK I have heard men call for him to be hanged. Yet his conduct was natural. It was inspired by the same spirit that has kept a thousand of his kind voyaging those dangerous seas; the same spirit that had brought him and many another like him off best in U-boat duels; the same spirit that animated that fine old skipper of the North Seas who, with both legs shot off and his vessel sinking, ordered his crew to throw him and the code books into the sea together. So let us ...accept his repentance, and permit the incident, unfortunately one of many, serve to illustrate at once the merits and faults of the convoy system.
CHAPTER XVII THE CONVOY SYSTEM THE merits of the convoy system, taking them first, have been abundantly proved by the decrease in mercantile sinking since the old patrol system was abandoned. Under the latter the destroyer and patrol fleets were scat- tered like pawns over a vast checkerboard that ruled off British waters, and across which mer- chant vessels moved from one check to another.
