Maybe a question best asked to @Jim Currie however, I was wondering recently how the crew replaced their log books after Titanic went down.
The seamans record woud have been their lifeblood containing ships that they have served on, performance records and experience. Without this document they would not have been able to sign on at their respective grades (seaman, lookout, quartermaster etc) and their career at sea would have been pretty much impossibe.
So were copies of these documents kept ashore or what was the procdeure if they were lost?
