Subs ar® groat oraft* very ooapaeo, no spao© to mate* Mon a1x>ard 
get quit© used to it* some bunks ar© Just 18’* belossr those above. On© gets 
quit© clever at stepping through (like hurdle racer aliaost) little 4-foot 
high, 2-foot wide doors; sotw are couple of stops up or down, as deck levels 
are not saa© in all ooiapartiaents. 
The toilet is quite a Eieohanioal oontrivanoe, ill inlets fr<®a sea, 
like flush isater, have two valves, air alst has two, also discharge opening* 
Seems very <K)saplioat 0 d at first, but very logical and simple after you get 
hang of it. After using, one opens two flush valves, one after other, before 
water flows. Then you pull lever to dmp bowl into hopper below, then open 
air valve, and pull olmnge lever right my, mtol'iing pressure gauge up to 
20-25 lbs, Ilext opm outside discharge valve with (life up and down lever), 
open gate valve by rotating idieol, and last move charge lever the other way 
to discharge side; when container below closet bowl is blown clear. Last, shut 
off valves. 
Had nice lunch aboard in saall ward rotm^^ It is just separated 
from rest of oaaparteent by a light jtands&iilil'a Egx partition which, because of 
T 
type of sub and need for gettlj^ out batteries, does not extend to deck 
underfoot and has no doors into staterooms just off side of wardroom or 
portion of crew’s quarters just forward of it in same compartment. Just two 
toilets on whole sub. 
After Imoh went ashore to see what possibilities of hiking inland 
were and after groat deal of iiaoking at thorn bushes which formed an aliaost 
inpenetrabl© wall just back of beach reached a little more open groimd with 
so many lam dykes that it was rough going, Hesult was timt without o< 3 sapass 
we made a sort of S sorties twice jmralleled beach and so made very little 
headmy inland* {Joastant haokii^ and biasing of trail, breaking over small 
trees; and slicing off ends of cactus pads, tliis mad© csie of best biases.
