My Father will be soon on his way to his maker, Do you think the Merchant Marines can appologize to him?

Yep, he operated the amphibious vehicles (DUKW). Back in his day, they were used to load and unload ships during the war times amongst other tasks. Some of those ships flushed their sewer material through exterior pipe openings over head. He tells the story time and again how his amphibious vehicle veered under one of those poop shoots. The crew on the ship watching the situation pan out, just watched and giggled as his vehicle veered. No one warned him. Then the ship's poop shoot flushed the excrement on top of him and the vehicle. He said he had turds all over him and made an immediate jump into the ocean. Also to mention he had to clean the ship's raw sewage out of his vehicle. The on-lookers thought it was funny.
