Noteable events involving Hythe include:
I am just curious as to why info on the crews as well as other info is more easily available on the German side such as Uboats etc. $45 a year would not be financially good for me because I only require info on HMS Hythe and my late fathers Uncle who died when it was sunk by the jerries. I think a pay-as-you-go system would be more effective, because it would attract more people, people like myself that are trying to trace or find info on one person don't generally subscribe to things because it would work out far too expensive! once I've found the info I'm looking for I wouldn't need to use the site again, and I think many other people feel the same.
