(Legion 4 @ Jan. 27 2008,23:47) QUOTE 21st Century Political Correctness has sunk the Graf Spee this time ... I doubt there remains much it hasn't sunk already so I guess Spee is in good company.  Yep, I agree victories like that are an encouraging start. He's already bugging me for another game. And of course I'd love to tell him I let him win  but the sad fact remains he beat me fair and square.

(Kleomenes @ Jan. 27 2008,19:35) QUOTE They've changed the names!?!?!? Thats an outrage!!!!!!!1 Is nothing from my childhood sacred anymore?! Although weirdly they only changed the name of the Graf Spee - it's now called the 'Robert Eaves', and is accompanied by an un-named submarine. The programme says 'The enemy vessels are a fictitious fleet and bear no resemblance to any vessel.' Thankfully, all the other ships are still properly named! Regards, Reaver |

Well, IMO, political correctness has no place in history ... but sometimes the facts are blurry. However, in this case it's pretty clear what happened that day ... |
