Corn! As high as an elephant's eye, and all through the natural power of a one-legged captain wrestling those punk bitch commanders into submission and gjdkfj. Becaue I am a big sap (and also because I really can't imagine that the decision that HH was not fit for command could occur without this), I keep imagining Bush and at least one of the other commanders who'd lived through typhus going to see HH or whatever and.kjgl;kdjf.
I wonder how the Navy dealt with typhus.
And ahaha. God. The line that Hornblower uses to describe it -- something like, "Good old Pellew! He knew of the friendship that had long been between Bush and Hornblower. . . " It reduces me to helpless laughter and love of HH/WB every time I read it.
