chapter fourteen so next monday you muster in with deck and after you get the muster report up to the bridge , you go down below to the supply spaces and report to barazza and you spend the first morning climbing down ladders with the second class sk [ 118 ] thomas to the storerooms deep in the forward half of the ship and as you drop down below the waterline , somewhere between the third and fourth decks below the hangar bay , you can hear the ocean slamming against the hull and the sliding rush of water on metal and then down past the reefer decks and further below than you ever went before , six decks down where the lights are low and the decks are wet and you can feel all that water all around you just one layer of aluminum away .
