Re: Endurance 82 - Skytrex Endurance
My friend the late Lt Chris Todhunter was the officer in charge of the party landed in Berkley Sound for Survey work and his personal account refers to the " Survey Motor Boat James Caird". He and the ret of the survey party were left behind and subsequently lurked to support the RM in defending Government House and then captured and repatriated. Chris spent precisely two days of his survivors leave before being put on a plane to Ascension Is and onward tranit to rejoin Endurance. His account of Endurances trip makes fascinating reading.
