I did not know that they each could lay claim to the sinking! It was a beauty that had to be taken down but we forget the lives that were lost, too! sam

Well done. After reading the rest of this myself, I shared all four chapters with my son who was in the US Navy in the early 1980's. He was quite familiar with most of this from his own studies and was very impressed with your writing. We spent a lot of time discussing and remembering his Dad who was in the US Navy in the late 1950's and a dear friend who served during WW II. During his Navy time he was on a ship that went down in battle and he spent several weeks on a life boat with injuries before being rescued.
