In the comments section the officer that was hit is c_bates.

I'm just imagineing the scene right now of..
"Pull in the nets !"
"Look at the strain on the cables ! We must have a TON of fish in there !!!"
*BOOM !!!*
*tons of fish come falling from the sky, landing all over the deck*

"Where's your fish now, Bob?!?" :p

This reminds me of a story about the Titanic. Two years after the ship had sank, a Spanish cargo liner heading to Brazil spotted what they thought was a man in the water. They fished him out, and he was little more than a skeleton, although his fine dress clothes remained intact, save for a shoe that was missing along with his tie. Anyway, they hauled him aboard, looked at the lifebelt and read the word TITANIC on it.

Wouldn't that be a funny find?

Yes it does. However, it is only based on the publically available information, until now.;)

Very kindly, a user of GWX and researcher of U-Boat locations in & around the British Isles has given us access to the WWII Admiralty Charts showing Allied minefields in the North Sea & English Channel. We have also been supplied the German Minefield maps showing safe/secret passages through their fields.:rock:

I'm not sure of the legality of sharing these, so I won't.

Needless to say, if you want accurate locations on the Allied/Axis minefields from 1939 onwards around the British Isles, wait for GWX 2.1 then check out the campaign layers.:arrgh!:
