The British minesweeper HMS Sphinx is badly damaged and later founders after German air attacks against shipping on the East coast of Scotland.

Man, the North Sea was a dangerous place. I would have never guessed that there was this much action with what little navy the German's had.

Your not wrong Kenny, although this month starts quite slow next updat is 7th

Sorry all, but due to the pressures of work and the new projects that have just kicked off at work I'm going to have to call a halt to this daily war at sea diary.

I'm hoping to be able to start it back up later in the year when work slackens off
