There is a touching part about them in " Torpedo Junction ".

They came here in leaky coal burnig rust buckets with , no tools and a couple of guns a DC rack and alot of HEART.

At first they were laughed at but, when they went out on convoy duty they went after a sighted u-boat with the tenastidy of a Bulldog. Grrrr They didn't have much but their courage.

Sadly one got blown out of the water to pieces.
Much later some bodys were recovered.

They were laid to rest in a small cemetry in a small south east coast town.

Their remains were never reclaimed. And to this day that town considers them THEIR OWN.

The graves are regularly tended and fresh flowers.
To these people these hero's won.t be forgotten.

I would love to have these in the fray.

And make them TOUGH and DANGEROUS.

Because the men manning them were.
