While in the Caribbean she and her other children wrote letters of love to James, saying how much they missed him they then decided to put the letters into an empty Sambuca bottle (Jamess favourite drink) and threw it into the sea.

Mrs Adams said she wrote how much she missed him and also wrote an open letter to whoever found the bottle.
She said: I wanted to make everyone aware that were responsible for the world we live in, not to forget the soldiers who have given up their lives and to be aware that we are a country at war.
She also wrote a note to her dead father, asking him to look after James.
Seven months and 1,300 miles later the bottle was found.
The bottle was found by team from Progressive Pipe Management on July 15, who were working on Horn Island, Mississippi cleaning up oil leaking from a BP pipeline off the coast of Louisiana following the explosion in April.
God comfort Mrs. Adams.
God bless her son.
“Progressive Pipe Management”
It’s off thread, but a company calling itself that blatantly to get government contracts from leftist-controlled money sickens me very deeply, and it reeks of illegality. Not easily provable, but illegal nonetheless.
Ummm, Progressive Pipeline Management has been around for years.
I’m not sure what difference that makes?
You are to be congratulated, however, for your technique in turning a thread about a mother's grief for the loss of her son into a thread about your lack of knowledge of American industry.
Just a castaway
An island lost at sea
Another lonely day
With no one here but me
More loneliness
Than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
A year has passed since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep me together
Love can mend your life
But love can break your heart
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
Oh, message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
Walked out this morning
Don’t believe what I saw
A hundred billion bottles
Washed up on the shore
Seems I’m not alone at being alone
A hundred billion casatways
Looking for a home
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I’ll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
Sending out an SOS
Sending out an SOS
Sending out an SOS
Sending out an SOS...
