Disappointing use of terminology IMO

Some of those Tommies you refer to in such a derogitory manner could quite easily be relatives of some members on this forum
I personally can site my grandfather who was lost at sea during this period and my living father who sailed under unimaginable conditions to maintain the freedom of decent peace loving people.
This is just a game, let us keep that thought uppermost in our minds without resorting to expletives that many on here could easily perceive as insulting

What is a Tommie? I know that I am sounding like a total nub when I ask that, but I have no clue. I am assuming that it is a hospital ship, of which, I have not seen in game...yet.

When I do, I will not sink it. There might be German's on that ship as well.

'Tommie' is a term used for British people during WWII.

Not offensive when used in isolation.

Thank you for the information...is it a deragatory term like "Jap", or just another term for British people, like "Yankees" for Americans? I mean no offense, I just wnat to know so I will recgonize when to and when not to use it here or anywhere else.
