Those PoS (Italian ships) were better than the dungheaps the Germans called ships!!!

Silkboy ! Am a fellow KM'er myself. Collect and study everything on the subject I can get.

I wish they would get the ME-109T available from the carrier - I would try to start up TRAGERGRUPPE 186!

All new Italian destroyers had glass bottoms so the sailors could see the old Italian destroyers.

Paraphrasing Adlai Stevenson, or just coincedence?

"... a fine flood of rhetorical score"
-Adlai Stevenson, to Ambassodor Zorin of the Soviet Union, at the UN Security Council 1962

One of my favorite quotes from that speech.
