Scene of the Tuscania disaster revisited. Robert Morrison, a native of Islay who received the Order of the British Empire for risking his life three times to save three American soldiers, shows the photographer how he did it. He scaled a cliff and 250 feet high and rescued an exhausted American who had climbed part way to the cliff and was in a perilous position being too weak to hang on much longer. To accomplish this, Morrison had to throw a rope across a chasm, lassoing a neck of rock and then making his way across the rope to the position where the American soldier could be reached

Barrage balloon manufacture. Rope work. Splicing and handling ropes is a vital part of barrage balloon manufacture, and requires unusual skill to make ropes lie smoothly, pull uniformly, avoid chafing the fabric, or bunching after the balloon is fully inflated. An early step in the work is shown here, in which the rope is frayed out into its many strands, which are then cemented into fabric "fingers" for greatest holding power.
