Title: Question?
Product review: Despite the two typo errors by page 17, my question about this book deals with life preservers. The authors repeat a number of times the claim that the "Mae West" life preserver was some kind of old style replaced by the "newer" kapot style. My understanding is the Mae West was issued to air crews and never as standard issue to surface vessel crews and was in fact, a newer design. Where they got this idea that kapot was some newer design that replaced the Mae West and why they say it did so over and over may well be another "Untold" part of the story.
