    Very interesting site there Reg and also very sad, the death toll from such a small island was terrible.
    The accounts of the sinkings are interesting, such as the German submarine shelling the ship and then machine gunning the survivors in the water twice.
    Ba*tards.

    Good site, thanks for that. Amazing thing about the Merchant Marine I never knew was, as soon as they were sunk, their pay stopped. Sometimes nowt changes.
