Softcover. Condition: Wie neu. 144 S., kartoniert, 19 x 11,8 x 1,2 cm, wie neu. Jürgen Bruggey, 1938 in München geboren, verbrachte Kindheit und Jugend in Augsburg. Es folgten Studienjahre in München und Berlin. In den Jahren 1966/67 arbeitete er als Geologe in Kabul/Afghanistan. Dann Heirat und Familiengründung, Promotion, Täti…gkeit in verschiedenen Ingenieurbüros. Im Jahre 1978 machte sich Jürgen Bruggey in Augsburg selbständig, wo er - mit sechs Jahren Unterbrechung, da er als Umwelt-Referent und kommunaler Wahlbeamter bei der Stadt beschäftigt war - heute noch als geschäftsführender Gesellschafter seines Büros für Geotechnik und Umweltschutz tätig ist. Schreiben ist "immer schon" sein bevorzugtes Kommunikationsmittel gewesen. Verschiedene Erfahrungen der letzten Zeit - darunter mehrere Meisterkurse im Rahmen des Irseer Kunst-Sommers - haben ihn darin bestärkt, Kurths Geschichten und andere Erzählungen nun der frischen Luft der Öffentlichkeit auszusetzen.

Soft cover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. On offer is a fascinating diary kept by a teenaged British Merchant Navy sailor in WWII who turns 17 while serving aboard the M/V Willowbank. The author of this diary is one R. Bruggey. Our research has not turned up any biographical information about him. The diary covers the year 1939 an…d the first two days of 1940. This frontline World War II diary opens with an entry from 1938 noting that he was accepted into the Merchant Navy as an apprentice. He was 16 years old at the time. After Christmas at his home, he joined a coaster, the Dutch vessel SS Westlaan. On Jan 4th, he got his orders to report to M/V Willowbank. [The Willowbank was a motor merchant ship owned by Andrew Weir & Co. In London. On June 12, 1940, it was sunk in an attack by the German submarine U-46. All 51 on board at the time survived, our author was likely still on board at this time]. This young diarist was so delighted to be joining the war effort. He even draws small diagrams of the ships he is on as well as the ports he stops at. Some excerpts of his writing follows: "On the 14th (Oct, 1938) I first joined the Shipping Federation. Nov 8th I was accepted for Andrew Weir s waiting list. 1 week before Christmas, I purchased my uniform. On the 23rd Dec I received a letter from the A. W. Co stating I was to fill a vacancy in one of the apprenticeships aboard Willowbank just completing at doseford s yard Sunderland. Had a very enjoyable Christmas. One of the best" [Memoranda 1938]. "I joined my ship the Willowbank. Everything very dirty. Signed on about 10: 30 AM. No dinner. Had tea ashore. Mate told us to have bed and breakfast on shore. Back in morning to dinner in ship. Doseford s Yard filthy. Sunderland is not a very nice place" [Jan 7]. On January 10th, 1939, after workups, M/V Willowbank left Tyneside, UK bound for Turkey. His entries from this point detail shipboard routines, his work and studies and events that he experienced. Excerpts follow: "The ship has nearly a full load! Her first cargo. It now remains to be seen what she s like at sea when loaded. Worked all day putting a canvas "dodger" round the Monkey Island" [Feb 6]. "It is exactly 2 month since I first started out from home. Started caulkingMonkey island did about half in one day. Pitch not ready in the eveningWeather very hot. Worse shorts while working got legs terribly sore strong sunburn" [March 6]. "Sea high. High winds. Heavy spray on deck did not have breakfast lunch in my bunk asleep during dinner felt very ill got a cold" [Mar 13]. "Weather fair sea very nasty swell and a fair bit of windApparently there has been 1 Canadian ship sunk the Athenia with Americans on board. Germany has now to face Poland , Britain, France, Australia" [Sept 4]. "Weather fair choppy sea. 1 British ship sunk to day the Bosnia. Off Portugal getting nearer! All port holes painted black have to shut them at night now. Rooms very hot. Sat in the tire hatch all into eveninglife boats cleared away for action. New Zealand and South Africa have declared for Britain. Planes bombed Kiel Canal! " [Sept 5]. "My birthday today - 17. Everything just the same. I wonder if anyone is thinking about me today? 1 German ship sunk last night. The French have broken through" [Sept 10]. "At N Guinea this morning. Into Pt Moresby at lunch time a fairly hilly place. Started loading at 2: 00 PM . Went into the Hotel and had a few drinks (mostly lemonade) beer is too costly" [Dec 8]. "Started cargo here this morning and got everything finished by 5-0 PM. Waited at anchor all night to get away in the early morning. 4th Engineer pinched a cake out of the store. We all agreed it was very nice! Just going ashore when we were told the launch we re bound for Raboul so that knocked that on the head" [Dec 20]. "Had the day off today. Went for (crocodile) shooting up the little creeks in B.
