<HTML>Sorry friends I made a mistake. It should read \"Heave out and trice up\"
What this means is when we slept in hammocks, when the crew was awakened
in the morning they were told to Heave out and trice up which means get out of you hammock (Heave to) and secure your hammock (Trice up). This was the old Navy before bunks.</HTML>
