theres a great site run by a mate of mine the convoy web he does it for free its a huge archive you can trace just about any merchant ships movements during ww2 , its far bigger than the goverments national archives and they charge you , a fee he went to the archives and copy,d every thing he could find by hand mostly while paying a research fee , if you have a relative that was in the merchant navy and you have his ships name you can trace it s course through ww2

its that time again folks , sept third 2008 veterans of the merchant navy of world war two exercise their right to march throught cardiff as they were granted freedom of the city just like a regular members of hm armed forces , cardiff being the first city in the world to grant these rights to members of the merchant navy , many others have followed suit around the world , not to blow my own bugle i,m proud to say i had a small part in this , if only by having the internet smarts to raid a bunch of archives to print and send my dad fuel for the fire that brought this honor about dickie martin ss empire narissa ss sam winged ss sam york ss fort turttle

sure harvey was a trained rifleman , thats what they do , when the germans first met the old british army in the opening of the first world war they thought they were going against machine guns , no it was riflemen trained to exacute rapid fire sixty seconds 303 rifles for the use of , average fourty rounds per man thats a lot of lead down range , ask our resident nco and he,ll tell you fooking duck

my former helper is on the uss saipan in thailand at the moment , the kid was hype active some of the retired marines i work with talked him into joining the marines , against my wishes , i thought he could not handle boot camp , boy was i wrong he shot expert in a rain storm and came out , wishing he could go through boot camp again , he was the only member of the troop to come out with a advance to lance corpral , he made full corpral in six months , those "rubes" are riflemen first , so if you were a towle head popping off your ak 47 and not hiiting nothing one of thoses " rubes" is going to put a end to your jihad from 200 meters with a head shot , give them a remmington 700 and your dead meat from 500 meters , and if they get their dirty little paws on a barrett 50 cal dont leave home

not a bit if anything it got worse , i must hold myself in a bit as it would come accross as a racist rant but first let me answer the dolph lungren bit , dude devoloped muscle is great looking but its not working muscle boyo , we all know that squaddies are a bunch of louts if they are together its a warrior thing , ( far be to tell you that) but they all came from family s where family values are taught to do the right thing , unlike over here where you hear the phase my babys daddy or mother , which they dont support , its a different kulture , the minorites over here always want to blame somebody , never them selves , but if you look at the indians pakis vietnanese and others they do great , second generation go to collage because they have family values , the others want life on a plate or a basketball , football deal , and as for the teeth you dont need them to eat mre,s , i lived on them for three weeks after hurricane katrina
