My paternal grandfather was stationed at Scapa Flow as a member of the Observer Corps, ending the war as a sergeant.

My maternal grandfather, on the other hand, was a lieutenant of infantry with the York and Lancaster Regiment. He saw action in only one battle, Moro River, during the Italian campaign. From the records, he found the experience emotionally crippling, as immediately after the battle he was returned home suffering from shell-shock and finished the war as a training officer.

One uncle said his father was a member of the Dutch resistance who refused to talk about his war-time experiences. I cannot even imagine what that was like.

There is one more clue that something unexpected happened: the Allied Ships Lost counter increased by one. Perhaps Grey managed to sink a ship that isn't in the update, or perhaps it's the Enterprise.

When do you get the points, anyway - when the ship is claimed sunk or confirmed sunk?

It's hard to believe that it's over. Like many others, this thread and it's predecessor were ones I checked every day. The end of an era!

Thanks, Grey, for all the hard work.
