Nautical Terms and Phrases - Their Meaning and Origin
Carry On
In the days of sail, the
officer of the deck kept a weather eye constantly on the slightest change in
the wind so sail could be reefed or added as necessary to ensure the fastest
headway. Whenever a good breeze came along, the order to "carry on"
would be given. It meant to hoist every bit of canvas the yards could carry.
Pity the poor Sailor whose weather eye failed him and the ship was caught
partially reefed when a good breeze arrived. Through the centuries the term's
connotation has changed somewhat. Today, the Bluejackets
Manual defines "carry on" as an order to resume work; work presumably
not so grueling as two centuries ago
