Thx TWM, so it happens to a few of us,I could,nt hang around the damaged battery did,nt show 100% charge ,and with both scopes damaged i could,nt have a looksee ,managed t get out of the grip of the DDs and refitted in Midway, they repaired the scopes but not the battery .Before I got to Midway got orders to patrol off Honshu,only a lunatic ud go there with 2 scopes out of action conning tower and control room flooding ,the latter heavily. Back now at Honshu ,this time I,ll follow em like a bloodhound. Hardigen
