Is there any benefit having this or is this solely for immersion? I did notice a few radio messages containing grid coordinates.

On the map you have some black lines (convoy routes) and under the line is writted OA for example.. that means in 1943-1945 the convoys used that shiping route

For example England - Halifax (you can see it is OA , OB) ... means was used as shipping line between 1939-1940 and 1940-1941... this is just a gues

Don't know the meanings offhand (apart from Hx = Halifax), but they're 2 or 3 digit codes indicating the start point of the convoys. The code would be followed by a number to indicate the actual convoy (eg: PQ-17)

'KMS' was the Allied code for slow convoys from Britain to the Mediterranean starting in November 1942. For all convoy codes see here:
