That was E15, and I don't think it was deliberate - it was a precaution taken just in case the diplomat fell into enemy hands.David Boylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11410159311875228620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4169740113013066976.post-58043315561775018332015-04-28T10:41:30.457+01:002015-04-28T10:41:30.457+01:00There was a great TV documentary on at the weekend...There was a great TV documentary on at the weekend, with details about the Gallipoli landings. They cited a previous submarine, which had been shelled and captured, killing the captain, en route through the Dardenelles. Curiously, they suggested the mission's failure might have been deliberate, since it allowed a diplomat to be captured, and give false information about the landings to the Turks. Absolutely fascinating.Iain Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04844909668661902521noreply@blogger.com
