As the American dreadnaughts steamed away, the British commander- in-chief signalled: "Your comrades of the grand fleet regret your departure. We trust this id only temporary, and that the inter- change of squadrons from the two great fleets of the Anglo-Saxon race may be repeated. We wish you good- bye, good luck, and that you will have a good time and come back soon." In reply came the following: "Your friendly and brotherly signal of God-speed is deeply appreciated by the officers and men of your sixth fiat- tle squadron. We will never forget the hospitality, which has made us feel a part of ypur big family, and we intend to maintain that relation for all time. We all hope to serve under your command.". The use of the word "your" was lost upon no one in the grand fleet, least of all Admiral Beatty. Another mess- age was immediately sent: "This is indicative of the intimate brotherly unity and sympathy which exists on both sides of that greatest ocean highway, the Atlantic, and, as it is not joined by land, is kept warm and alive largely by men of the sea." To which- the American squadron made answer: "The officers and men of the sixth battleship squadron appreciate more than can be explained the never-end- ing hospitality of the officers and men of the grand fleet.
