Wet Mail

Just about every other day, the DeHaven would take on fuel. This would also give us the opportunity to get our mail. This particular time, while taking on fuel, the oiler lost her steering causing a near collision and giving our mail a bath. The crews scrambled to recover the mail that was nearly lost.

Whew! Mail is safely aboard.
