Hi all I think that if you can you should all try to post as much of these accounts as you can, just for the fact that they are real peoples history and memories from a period of their lives that most of us only read about and will never, ever understand, I had a brother-in-law who was in the navy when the Falklands war was on, and he never really talked about what happened on his ship, I for one am fascinated by these stories, NOT for the gruesome side, but for the massive interest in one who has lived through these times and can recollect the funny and also the sad times that have happened to them, this is something that is not taught to the young (I am not that old by the way) today.
Sorry for ranting, but that is what I believe.
