Tony B Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 nice one Lee, explosions at filling stations and fuse problems were the bain of the British Military at this time. There were also stories of sabotage doing the rounds , especially the I.R.A. who were said to have links with the Germans. The first British Submarines, designed in America by Holland, had been funded by Sinn Fein to attack the British Fleet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
