Re: The official AHF Kriegsmarine quiz thread
hi,
and now I`m burdened :roll: with the nice task to decide who of you gets the price ...
IMO, finding the HMS PRINCE EUGENE was the hardest part.
Thus, the next question goes to ... France !
greetings, the pb
P.S. sorry, Peter, I`m going to make it up at the next possibility

Re: The official AHF Kriegsmarine quiz thread
That´s really no problem!
In any case I would have proposed, that OLIVIER takes the next turn!

hi, Olivier,
a process of elimination (which destroyer is it not ...) leads me to the assumption that this is Z 24 sinking off Le Verdon in August 1944.
