Fight back!

<HTML>All,

I\'m right in the middle of reading through my batch of new books here:

Iron Coffins / Das Boot / Convoy / Hirschfeld / U-Boat Commander / Enigma U-Boats / U-Boats, illustrated history and Three Corvettes. The last one is the one I am stuck nose deep in right now. Yeah, I know...more money than sense!

In each, a glance shows that one thing mattered throughout the conflict on all sides. It was the glue that kept things together, the reaison d\'etre, the rationale and the reason - it was discipline.

If we, those of us who have a real passion for this forum and its subject, work together as a group then we can defeat the flamers. How?

By ignoring dodgy postings.
By refusing to rise to the bait of greyed out non-viable posters.
By standing together and using our own off forum e-mail address contact to determine whether a posed question is legitimate or not.

So, Kameraden! Do we stand as a group and try to steer the forum back on course?

Answers to the forum, unless you want to get to me via e-mail. At least that way I will know the ID of the poster is real and not a decoy!

I think it\'s time we broke the battle ensign out at the yard and went back to the fray all guns blazing!

Aye,

John</HTML>
