On this last three night3 I knew that the olhcers were getting the wireless from British cruisers. On the last two nights be fore passing into the Virginia capes the order to the crew was. 'Every I body to the gun3; nobody to sleep." On the lu.3t night two of the British cruisers were within ten miles of us."
