The summer months fou
Cardlina students employed I
and wide and Don Richards
and Jimmy Leventis were
e exception.
k The young men left Columt
in the middle of June f
Cameron, La., where a job w
Pure Oil Company was waiti
' for them. After receiving
n
structions at Cameron they I
i
n for the Gulf of Mexico, whe
they worked on oil platfor
d located 50 miles out at sea.
,f took a boat six hours to rea
the four wells.
d Difficult To )ock
It was difficult to dock sir
d the swift gulf stream caus
the boat to ram against t
e pilings of the well. Once on t
p well pilings they had to grab
e rope and swing up to the p;
h form. If they didn't swing ji
exactly right they would ha
been caught under the pilir
i and crushed by the boat as
came down on a wave.
From one Wednesday un
e the next, the summer worke
d stayed on their platform in t
f ocean, eating and sleepi
there. One of their duties w
to climb under the rig and spr
the cables with fish oil to pi
serve the steel.
They reported just one dif
- cultyl
e If you fell to the right y
hit cables and could be crush
to death and if you fell to t
-, left you would be in the ocean
- 45 feet below. The platfoi
s supervisor insisted they we
h life preservers, not for thf
safety but in case of a fall
- would be easier to locate t
d bodies. Nuedless to say th
were both tempted to quit rig
-. then.
