Описание: This ballad was inspired by the Irish Mercantile Marine during the second world war and in particular the small coaster MV Kerlogue. The Irish Mercantile Marine during World War II continued essential overseas trade in the conflict, a period referred to as The Long Watch by Irish mariners. Much of the information and images for this song and video were gathered from the book 'The Long Watch' by Frank Forde. Images of MV Kerlogue, S.S. Irish Oak and S.S. Irish Pine from original oil paintings by Kenneth King. Though a neutral ship The Kerlogue like other ships in the Irish fleet was attacked by both sides during the conflict. The Kerlogue is particularly interesting as she went on to rescue many British and German sailors including 168 German sailors in December 1943.
