where might a beroning Oberleutenat z.S. of a IXB find a bunch of single merchants in mid 1940?

Don't usually go out of my way for singles, unless they happen to be quite large, but CG 94 is a great spot for doubles. :sunny:

Check the contact map in my signature.
The red icons are 1940 contacts.
Hope it helps.

I could live there. I roll dice and pray for the 2-3/11-12 that send me there after I have done a couple of weeks on "station".

Of course, the Happy Times do end.

Fair enough, there's always room for one more. But turn out the lights when you're done and don't feed the cat 'cause he's already had plenty. :D :O:

I like singles and doubles as they arn't escorted and I can attack them at my leasure event if the sport armerments as I have noted that mechants tend to be poor shots in small numbers.
