You're Top Poster: #1   | Hugh, that's a great site you've created - very pleasing to the eye (so many sites seem to fail on that front), and seems packed full of information. I shall definately have proper read later. On a personal note, it's so nice to see the Lascars highlighted too - so often forgotten. cheers K

You're Top Poster: #12 | Thank you all for your kind comments regarding my website - a labour of love for me. Kyt - thanks - the Lascars deserve their mention, they were very much part of the Merchant Navy and many were lost with no grave but the sea. Kitty - thanks - the DEMS gunners (24,000 Navy, nearly 5,000 killed), (14,000 Army, 1222 killed) paid a heavy price and again like the MN were not given the recognition they deserved. Spidge, I wish I could claim to be a baby but alas it wont wash   Regards Hugh
