Today at 1430hrs, Nov.23, 1943, U-69 was lost at sea in the N. Atlantic. After a long career since 1939 and successful patrol #21, Steiner radioed she was heading home. Helga was aboard. May she rest in peace. Oh what a piece she was ..

Nice wordplay, Pappy. Hope you find 'piece' of mind. We all regret your loss...

Too bad about your sub, I almost had the same fate with mine.
