I, too, was in that hurricane off the East coast. We were in a convoy headed again for the Mediterranean and that was the first of our many problems.
We were in many storms so I don't have a clear, SEPARATE, memory of each of them. However, I clearly remember that it was a violent storm and I can recall when one side passed and we were in the "eye" of the Hurricane. It was a rather weird feeling.
It, too, passed and were struck by the other side.
I DO remember another trip, and a very bad storm we were in, and for us, it was a great deal worse. Our steering engine broke down time after time and we had one heck of a time making it through that one!
Memories! WOW! It's been a LONG, LONG time, my friends!!
