So, it would seem like you're about 20 years off there.  |
Interesting!!! I'll go back and check on the dates and snap another pic. If somethings labelled wrong it needs to be fixed. I did wonder though when I saw the "Guided missile destroyer" card
I'm pretty sure they hadnt got that kinda missile tech in WW2. Would it be possible that some of those ships started life during WW2 and were just refitted over time?
