O this is a tough one. Let me see

- if we restart than I have to check every time did anybody already post same thing
- if we continue then I will not be able to post all those ww2 destroyers because I couldn't find any above 900

Yap, I vote for destroyers, I mean to restart all thing

I was "Called-up" in Oct 1942
Served as a Driver/Op (Wireless Operator) with the 49th LAA (78 Div) from Apr 1943 to Dec 1944 (North Africa,Sicily,Italy, Egypt). The Regiment was disbanded in Dec 1944 and I was retrained (in Italy) by the RAC

I then served as Loader/Op with the 4th QOH from Mar 1945 to Jan 1946 (Italy, Austria, Germany) finally finishing up as Tech Cpl. for "A" Sqdrn.

I was "De-mobbed" in Apr 1947
