, 450 Nicol's impact was noted by de Robeck somewhat spitefully: [I]t is very hard to get this new French V. A. to do anything, he will do nothing as well as anyone?Nicol is a very different man from dear old Guépratte who is a gallant fellow and the most loyal friend! Nicol is a little man of the most unprepossessing appearance; does not look a gentleman and don't think his name would be in the 'Stud Book'! We get on very well with the French, but they want everything and do as little as possible (most of them), p.451

Commodore Edmond Delage, a teacher at the French Naval Academy, 1915.
