Says Caribou Sinking Was Worst of Seven Experiences
Seaman Eric Andrews, son of Mr. And Mrs. Chas. Andrews, returned home during the past week on leave after his rescue from the torpedoed Caribou. This sinking made the seventh torpedoing that he has survived in the war. But, he says, "I want to forget the Caribou. The screaming of the women and children was awful. It was the worst experience I ever went through."
When the Caribou was torpedoed, Seaman Andrews was awakened by the explosion. The first thing he did was to open his suitcase and secure a flashlight, then he made for the deck. Everything was in darkness. When he came to the stairway, it was crowded with people making their way up and he stayed at the foot of the stairs to show the way with his light until all had gone up. When he himself reached the deck, the ship was taking the final plunge. Her boilers exploded and he was thrown into the sea.
After he came to the surface, he states that he went under again, probably from the suction of the ship. He rose to the surface again and all this time he had the presence of mind to hold on to his flashlight. To this fact he owes his life in large measure. By its light he saw a barrel bobbing on the water and swam over to it. Then he saw a piece of wreckage and made for that. Finally he saw a raft and making his way to this he stayed there until he was picked up after daylight.
Seaman Andrews lost all his belongings but was uninjured and is thankful for his escape after an unforgettable experience.

Also leaving to mourn a large circle of friends, relatives, colleagues
and former patients here in Newfoundland, Canada, Ireland and the United

immigrated to Newfoundland in 1956 on a 1-year contract. He met Mona,
a registered nurse, while working with the Department of Health and they
were married in 1959. After working in Tilt Cove and Stephenville, he
returned to St. John’s to begin a residency in Psychiatry at the
Waterford Hospital and subsequently completed his fellowship in Psychiatry
from Dalhousie University in 1965. He spent the next 41 years serving
the people of Newfoundland and Labrador as Staff Psychiatrist and for
a period of years as Medical Director, at the Waterford Hospital. An
avid photographer, amateur pilot, collector of oddities and master debater
he enjoyed most the company of his many friends and family. He was a
loving husband and father and a respected and valued mentor to innumerable
students, physicians and patients, that he worked with over the years.
Alfie lived, we learned and laughed and he will be missed by all who
knew him.

the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies
