As a youth, on holiday in Scotland, he had seen the Lusitania in the Clyde., “If I could sail on a ship like that, ” he had thought, “I’d go, to sea. ” Bestic was apprenticed to sail at age 18 on sailing, ships in the process of becoming a professional deck officer in, the Mercantile Marine. Four years later, while in the service, of Denbigh Castle, he once again saw the large passenger liner, sweep by. The Cunard Line only employed officers with, “square-rig” tickets as master, and as Bestic had not such, under his belt, he did not apply. When war broke out, however,, Cunard changed its policy as many of its officers and crew left, for the Royal Navy. When he applied, he was pleasantly, surprised to be told, “Join the Lusitania at nine a. M., Tomorrow morning at the Landing Stage. ”" (the Lusitania, Resource)
