Battle of Jutland C4

[paulr]

My complements to the Umpires

They appear to have come up with some really simple and effective ways to deal with several complex issues

Some very useful ideas to tuck away for future use

I provoked much hilarity with a tart reply along the lines of "And where the f**k are you, Beatty, you bl***y twonk!? Better reports or court-martial expected." Perhaps if the real Jellicoe had been as testy the result of the battle might have been significantly different.

Drinking my nightly tea (iced!) and just passed a substantial quantity through my nose. Thanks for that! 

As has already been said some really great ideas for fog of war. Scouting forces might actually get to scout.

Do you think "F**k" and "twonk" are in the flag directory, or would they have to be spelled out?

Given the distances involved it would have had to be Morse Code communication using wireless telegraphy - hopefully encoded!

This might be the pertinent signal hoist:

Picture of HMS Caroline nearly ready to receive visitors. I think the Torpedoes still have to arrive

Looking good, Steve. Is that a very recent photo? When I was in Belfast last Friday the deck area from the bow to the bridge was covered in canvass. Will you be visiting her soon?

I remember when she used to broadcast illicit pop music.
