Man the rails to render honors!

Just what we call British people where I come from the quivalient of the yanks using the term Limey. And Jimbuna being a son of Mother England therefore very much resembles that remark as he is the Pom in question in the photo. Kpt. Lehman and Privateer are the two yanks, (Although KL might bridle at being called a yank when he's a Texan).
